perintendent of schools, supported
the proposed consolidation of the
Mountville and Fast and Wiest
Hempfield Twps. school districts
at a meeting held at Landisville.
He spoke in favor of the plan a-
long with other panel discussion
leaders at an open forum session
on East Hempfield Twp. school
problems.
Dr. Mylin advised
creased costs of capital outlay, as
well as higher operational costs,
could be financed more economical=
ly by the three districts jointly.
He pointed out that common
bonds of interest exist between the
three districts, revealing that at
one time the entire area was ad-
ministered as one township unit.
Norman L. Bowers, vice-presi-
dent of the Fast Hempfield Town-
ship school board, presided. He

LANDISVILLE MAN IS
CHARGED WITH ASSAULT
Robert Painter, Landisville,
charged with assault and battery
and disorderly conduct by John
Altman, Lancaster, was arrested
Sunday and jailed for a hearing
before Justice of the Peace Paul W.
Schriver, Lancaster Twp.
Altman alleges that Painter
knocked him down about 2 a. m.

nearly struck by a car as a result.

The quietest and most wuninter-
esting primary election held in this
boro for many years, took place on
Tuesday. The vote was unusually
light, there were no worth while
contests and last but not least, some
of the offices went begging for can-
didates.
For the first time in the writer's
memory there was no Republican
candidate for Council in the West
Ward. This boro, invariably a Re-
publican stronghold, was far from
itself Tuesday.
One of the biggest surprises was
the defeat of President of Council
Robert Keller. Mr. Keller has been
in Council a number of years and
was chairman of the water commit-
tee for quite some time, being re-
lieved when the Borough Authority
took charge some time ago.
There were three Republican
candidates for Council in the East
Ward. Councilman Lester G. Hos-
tetter polled 139 votes, James B.
Spangler Jr. 103 and J. Robert Kel-
ler 49.
