S.A. Horton, borough street commissioner, an-
nounced this week that beginning Monday, March
18, a sweeper will be in town and will begin work
on East Main street.
Work will progress as rapidly as possible and
the plan is to sweep all streets in the borough
which have curbs. The anticipation is that the job
will take about three days.
Horton said that the sweeping crew will be as-
sisted by the police department, which will direct
traffic, where necessary, and help with the park-
ing of automobiles.
Originally,
the annual
sweeping operation
would have been sometime in April. In fact, at
the March meeting of borough council last week,
Horton set a tentative date.
He was named Tuesday
night following the annual
banquet and meeting of the
organization as new di-
rectors held their first meet-
ing of a new year.
He succeeds Glenn Y. For-
ney, who was in charge of
the Tuesday night meeting
and served as toastmaster.
Other officers elected by
the directors include Floyd
Bowden, first vice-president;
Warren Rutt, second vice-
president; Joseph Shaeffer,
secretary, and Simon Nissley,
treasurer.
