General Hospital's
$111,120 Drive
Starts On Friday
The 151 public appeal of the
Lancaster General Hospital to se-
sure $181,120 for charity and re-
placement funds will open in the
city and county, tomorrow, April
27th. '
Richard Oblender, president of
the hospital board of directors,
today issued an appeal to all mem-
bers of the community to support
the campaign.
“The General Hospital is a civic
asset, in the same category as our
schools, police and fire depart-
ment,” Oblender commented. “It is
a vital part of the community to
which it turns for support.
“We don’t pay the policeman
sclely for that infrequent occasion
when we might need him person-
ally. And we cannot maintain the
hospital solely for the time once
or twice a year when we may need
ite services for an emergency call
or a needed operation.
“Few of us go through a lifetime
without spending a period in the
hospital. In fact one of eight per-
sons enters a hospital once a year.
The hospital stands ready every
day of the year and every minute
of the day to render every type of
care that medical science can pro-
vide.

Authorities Seek
Ontionon20 Acres
The Donegal Jaint School Board
will take immediate steps to secure
a site selected for its proposed new
$1.200,000 high school building.
Paul Portner, of Marietta, board
president, said that the board will
attempt to secure an option to buy
the 20-acre site, one mile southwest
of Mount Joy at a reasonable figure.
He added, however, that if the site
cannot be purchased at a satisfac-
tory figure, the board will proceed
with condemnation proceedings. The
site is on the farms of Henry Bru-
baker and Elmer Shearer in East
Donegal township at the intersec-
tion of the Mount Jov-Marietta and
Florin-Newtown roads.
The action was decided upon at
a meeting in Marietta Thursday

Hitch-Hiker In a
Soldier’s Uniform
Steals An Auto
Comparatively few of us will

A 17-year-old East Petersburg
youth was robbed of his 1951 auto-
mobile and wallet at gun point by
pass up a hitch-hiker in uniform
friended on the Harrisburg Pike,
about five miles west of the city
of Lancaster shortly after three a.
m. Monday.
The victim of the armed robbery
is George H. Metzler, son of Mr.
and Mrs. Clarence R. Metzler. He
told State Police his wallet con-
tained only his auto cards and
photographs.
The auto, a two tone green two-
door sedan, had been purchased
by Metzler three months ago and
had been driven less than 2500
miles. It was valued at $2,400. The
car, bearing Pennsylvania registra-
tion 378-G-1, was last seen head-
ing west on the Harrisburg pike,
police learned.
Metzler told police he was re-
turning home from the city, driv-

yond Stumpf’s gas station. Tt was

Ephraim Hoffman
Celebrated His
91st Birthday
Ephraim Ziegler Hoffman, May-
town, celebrated his 91st birthday
on Monday and, in his honor, a
birthday party was held Sunday
by his brother, William G. Hoffman
with whom he resides.
Mr. Hoffman, who was born in
a farm outside Maytown, has lived
in the Maytown area most of his
life with the exception of a few
years during which he resided at
Wichita, Kans., following his grad-
vation from the Philadelphia Col-
lege of Pharmacy in 1884. He re-
turned to Maytown in 1888 and en-
gaged in farming. ’
Despite his age, Mr. Hoffman has
a remarkable memory, being able
to trace the decendants in the
Ziegler, Engle and Hoffman clans
for the past 100 years. In addition
he attends all the marriages and
" funerals of the clans within a ra-
dius of several miles.
Mr. Hoffman owns a
East Donegal Twp. and is able to
visit the farm daily and take an
interest in its operation. Because
of a life-long habit, he still arises
at 6:30 a. m. and retires at 7:30 p.
m. daily.

Friendly craft ordinarily would
answer to the code sent out after
contact is made, he said. But these
