Donnie Boyer may have
been encouraged about his
future. The day after elec-
tion he, or friends, came
through Mount Joy and
removed his campaign
posters from utility poles.

The word was that ‘‘he’ll
save those posters and run

were part of the now-close«!

Monday, as the very first
work began, three
“clickers”’ were in
operation, Johnstonbaugh
said.
Elsewhere in the caver-
nous Mount Joy street
building, workmen were
busily engaged in installing
other machines and
equipment.
Much of the machinery,
the manager said, came
from what formerly was the
Florin Footwear plant,
southwest of the borough.
Location of the factory on
Mount Joy street was the
subject of a public hearing
held last week, to which

The loss gave Donegal a 2-
8 season record; 2-6 in league
play, and a seventh place in
the nine-team Section II of
the L-L standings.
A year ago, the Indians
were 3-7 for the season.
Against the undefeated
(once tied) Comets, the
Indians found the ground-
gaining tough and counted
only six first downs during
the afternoon with a total of
65 yards by rushing.
Donegal made scoring
threats but the tough Comet
outfit was not to be denied or
to be nosed out of its
championship bid by
Manheim Central, which
came in second in the 1974
league race, just ahead of
Annville-Cleona.
As the season closes and
football eyes turn to the
future, they will see Donegal
bracketed in the new Section
II1 with Garden Spot
(enrollment 846), Elco (630),
Lampeter-Strasburg (627),
Cocalico (549), Annville-
Cleona (506), and Lebanon
Catholic (313). Donegal has
an accountable enrollment,
‘or football purposes, of 622.
Next year, Donegal, with
other schools in the area, will
join ithe new, bigger and
more statified Lancaster-
Lebanon-Berks league and
will play 11 games, all within
Section II and III, including
three night contests.

‘This and That’
(Continued from Page 1)
people, people, peop:e! As
they walked slowly through
the booths, their eyes
glanced over the shaving
mugs, the lanterns, the
china, the pressed and cut
glass, the jelly cupboards,
plank bottom and cane-
seated chairs. As they
glanced, we wonder if, in
reality, they weren't seeing,
depending on their age,
either their childhood home
in the country, their parents’
childhood home, or were
hearing again the tales of
“the old days’ as told by
their grandparents.
For it was a motley crowd,
these wanderers in the
Valley of Nostalgia. Many,
many of them were very
young. Some were dressed in
blue jeans with long,
unkempt hair, but many
others were conventionally
dressed, with well-behaved
little children at their side.
Others were middle-aged,
prosperous looking people, in
smart sports jackets and
pants suits. A few were older
folk, smiling fondly as they
fingered coffee grinders,
granite coffee pots, dainty
china tea sets or hand-
carved cradles.
There was something for
everyone!
About ten years ago we
began to be interested in
antiques, for three or four
years we avidly went to
shops, shows, auctions and
Make
Santa’s job
flea markets.
Then our interest waned,
and for about seven years we
have not paid much attention
to such things. Now, for
some inexplicable reason,
our interest has revived!
Hence the Sunday excursion
to Renninger’s.
But what a change has
taken place in the antiques
inarket in those seven years!
Prices have soared! The
‘‘antiques’’ have gotten
much ‘“‘younger,”’ and more
people than ever before are
now ‘‘collecting’’ precious
bits of the past.

had a price tag of $4495; a
child’s brass bed with a
canopy, $1700. To illustrate
how much ‘younger’ the
antiques are now: Choice
items are pieces of
“Depression Glass,” given
away by filling stations in
the ‘30's, Fiesta dinnerware
of the same period, and a

housekeeping with only 36

young doctor was examining
it carefully, and he and his
wife seemed to be weighing
the possibility of buying it.
And so it went!
We, and the three or four
other people from Mount Joy
that we saw, were having a
wonderful time! In a way,
perhaps, we were checking
up on the authenticity of ‘‘the
good old days,” and possibly
trying to discover their
secrets. More likely, we
wanted to borrow from the
Valley of Nostalgia a little of
its simplicity, peace and
strength to bring back to the
World of Today!
