Mrs. Clar'nce Roth
Injured In a Crash
At Chicago, III.
When an airplane crashed during
a takeoff at Chicago last week, it
injured three of its passengers,
among them Mrs. Clarence Roth,
twenty-one, daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. John Berrier, Elizabethtown,
R3.
The county woman who will he-
come a mother in March, was re=
ported in a satisfactory condition
by authorities at Holy Cross Hos-
pital, Chicago, Ill.
A long distance telephone call
to the hospital revealed to her rel-
atives that she is suffering a pos-
sible dislocated hip. X-rays were
taken to determine the full extent
of her injuries.
Mrs. Roth, the former Marjorie
Berrier, was enroute home from
San Diego, Calif, prior to her sail-
or husband being sent overseas.
A graduate of the Mt. Joy High
School. Mrs. Roth had served as
secretary for Arthur P. Mylin,
Lancaster county superintendent
of schools, and later was employed
at the Klein Chocolate Co, Eliza-
bethtown.
She and her husband were mar-
ried Jan. 7, 1950. Mr. Roth, a Navy
reservist, was recalled to active
duty about six months ago.
Since the accident, through the
intervention of the Red Cross, he
has been granted a fifteen day leave
and is now with his wife here.

There was no damage.
3 Districts Agree
On Jointure For a
$1,200,000 Building
School directors of Mt. Joy and
Marietta boroughs and East Don-
egal Twp. negotiated articles of a-
greement Tuesday night which of-
ficially fused the three districts in-
to a jointure. The transaction,
which took place in the public
school building in Marietta gave
birth to a new school administra-
tion body known as the Donegal
Joint High School Board.
Signing of the articles of agree-
ment culminated six years of or-
ganizational planning as individual
boards and eighteen months of ne-
gotiations by the joint steering
committee.
The first official action of the new
board was to give green light to
engineers to begin work on prelim-
inary plans and working drawings
for a new $1,200,000 junior-senior
high school building and to author-
ize delegates of the board to seek
an option for the purchase of a 16-
acre school site.
Paul E. Portner, of Marietta was
elected president of the new joint-
ure. Other officers named were:
Albert D. Seiler of Mount Joy, vice
president; H. D. McMullen of East
Donegal Twp., secretary, and May-
town National Bank. treasurer.
Paul L. Stoner, of Mount Joy was
named chairman of a committee di-
rected to seek a solicitor and Cur-
vin Martin of East Donegal Town-
ship was appointed chairman of the
committee empowered to acquire
an option for the purchase of a
school plot.
The Buchart Engineering Corpor-
ation of York was authorized to
prepare preliminary plans.
In order to finance preliminary
engineering work, the board applied
for a Federal loan of approximately
$40,000 which, the directors were
advised, might be secured without
interest charges. If granted, the
entire amount will not be given the
board in a lump sum but will be
forwarded as needed after various
stages of planning are completed
and officially approved.
