For Joint School
South of the Boro
A site of twenty acres located on
the Henry E. Brubaker farm, one
and one-half miles south of here,
on the Mount Joy-Marietta Road,
has been approved by the Donegal
Joint School District as the best
selections offered for the new jun-
jor-senior high school building.
At their first meeting as a joint
board Thursday evening, members
of Marietta borough, East Donegal
Township and the local district ap-
proved the selection of Clair S.
Buchart, president of the Buchart
Engineering Corporation, York, ar-
chitects for the project. They had
submitted several possible locations
to the architects and they selected
the one best suited to the plans for
the districts.
Lack of water is the only draw-
back to the site, which is on high
ground. A' committee composed of
Albert Seiler, of town: chairman;
Curvin Martin, East Donegal Town-
ship; and Charles Bauserman, Mar-
jotta, will attempt to secure exten-
sion of water mains from either Mt.
Joy or Florin. They will also in-
vestigate the possibility of having
wells dug and report on both solu-
tions at the March 15 meeting.
which will be held in the East Don-
egal High School building.
The proposed building will meas-
ure about 100 feet in length, officials
said and will ‘provide facilities for
800 students and a staff of 38 teach-
ers. For this, tentative plans call fo /
98 classrooms, an auditorium seat-
ing 800 and a gymnasium for 1,000
persons, It will be one floor con-
struction with the exception of one
wing, which will be two stories
high. At the rear of the building
will be a football stadium and track

Mount Joy, Pa., Thursday Afternoon, February
Now Uncle Sam
Will Start Buying
Lanc. Co. Tobacco
Plans were under way for the
Federal Government to buy Lan-
caster county's unsold 1950 tobacco
crops,
The Lancaster office of the Pro-
duction and Marketing Administra-
tion is mailing letters to 5466 to-
bacco growers telling them the
Commodity Credit Corp. has named
the Lancaster County Tobacco
Growers’ Cooperative as its agent
to buy tobacco.
The federal plan, scheduled to
start operating Feb. 27, calls for a
payment of 13 cents a pound for
farm fillers and up to 35 cents for
top quality wrappers.
It will be the first time that the
federal government has taken a
portion of the tobacco crop to sup-
port prices, Late last year, tobacco
fanmers rejected a price support
program for the 1951-52 and 1953
crops.
It is estimated that the tokacco
concerns purchased about 30 per
cent of the 1950 crop and then hal-
ted its buyers.
Federal men will grade the to-
bacco in the warehouse. There will
be a service charge of half a cent
a pound for administration costs
and a $10 membership fee in the
Co-op.
Crop deliveries to the Co-op will
be packed and sold. If the crops
are sold at less than paid the far-
mer, the Credit Corporation will
absorb the loss. If the crops sell at
a price higher than that paid the
farmers then the surplus money
will be given to the grower.
