by R. A. R. Mount Joy still is rejoicing about the decision to locate the new vocational-technical school in the borough. ® © o We say “in the borough”. But, the facts are that only part of the 106-acre tract is actually inside the borough limits. What, if anything is to be done or needs to be done to have the remaining area annexed into the bor- ough is not known at this time. ® oe o In fact, there is no one who knows exactly where the building will be located on the tract. Nor does any- one know whether the en- trances will be from Fair- view street or from Keller road or from both. (Who said, “Keller road”? Joseph Brene- man, who owned the land in that area, said so.) At one time his grandfather, the late Philip Franck, owned all the land in that area, including what Robert Keller now has). ® ® © Official and public decision to locate the new school in this immediate vicinity came after a lengthy survey of the entire situation. ® ® © A member of one of the local service clubs (Mount Joy Lions) showed us a copy this week of the minutes of a board meeting (dated early in 1963) when the possibility of a school for Mount Joy was discussed. ® ® oO Information and contacts were made even then. ® © o And, now that the decision is made as to exact location, il develops that the Lions’ swimming pool and the vo- tech school will be neighbors across Fairview street. W ® © One of the nice things a- bout Mount Joy is the ‘“Mus- ic in the Park” series, staged each summer in Memorial park. ® ® ® It is a good program and those who have been respon- sible are to be commended.

AUGUST 31, 1966 The Park’ “Music in the Park” pro- evening, Sept. 5, it was Charles Ashenfelter. The concert, beginning at 7 p.m., will be giv- en by the Bainbridge Band. “Music in the Park” is sponsored by the Mount Joy Community Council and is offered free to evervone. Those who attend should take their own folding chairs and blankets. Take Pupils In the past, noon meals have been delivered to pupils and their teachers at Wash- ington school. This year, boys and girls and their teachers will be delivered to their meals! A new wrinkle will be ini- tiated this fall, Dr. Ralph Coleman, assistant supervis- ing principal in charge of business, said this week. At 11:30 a.m. activity at school will be directed to- ward boarding a bus for lunch at Seiler school. As many as 60 first and second graders will be involved. However, the number is ex- pected to be smaller because some will want to walk to To Lunch their homes for lunch. Schoolmen feel that the cost of bussing will be as cheap and possibly cheaper than moving food from the high school, including per- sonnel involved. At the same time, Dr. Cole- man said that cost of school lunches this year will remain as last year, at least for the present. That is 30 cents for first, second and third graders and 35c for all others. The fact that only three rooms of pupils will be at- tending classes at Washington make the bussing arrange- ment possible. And, one of those rooms is kindergarten, which removes that room from the lunch list. Tells Medical Center Plan Basic facts concerning the new, Milton Hershey medical center, which under construc- tion, were given Mount Joy Rotarians Tuesday noon their weekly luncheon meet- ing at Hostetters. Dr. Howard Reinert, assist- ant to the dean of the medic- al center, was the speaker. The center, which is plan- ning to accept its first class in the fall of 1967, is situated on a 2l6-acre tract west of Hershey. An now designed, the school and its 350-bed training hospital will be built in a crescent shape facing westward. It will cost more than $40 million and the sev- en-story building will include 800,000 square feet of space. Heads of departments al- ready are being assembled ‘Of This and More petunias: - When we spoke two weeks ago of the beautiful plantings of petunias in Mount Joy this summer, we couldn’t mention them all, of course. It would have taken a whole page of The Bulletin, per- haps, to do that. It’s hard even to SEE them all—for there are so many. But a few more of the noteworthy ones we want to mention this week: On Route 230 just east of the borough are several ex- tremely attractive homes, very colorful with many petunias.

On Main Street, the Lester and Jim Roberts have two gray stone boxes attractively arranged with “Mount Joy’s favorite flower!” The Harold Kellers on Marietta avenue have profuse blooms in one of the most attractive colors we've seen. And so it goes—for a ‘“Pe- tunia Trail,” take the road to Manheim, as we did Tuesday evening.
