Hot rod show
The wonderful world of

the excitement of sparkling
paint and glistening chrome
for the 1st Annual World of

urday, March 29, and Sunday

This year’s headline fea-
tures have gone “ape.” That
is, we are having the two
apes, ‘“Zira” and “Cornel-
jus” from the TV series
“Planet of the Apes.” Both
will be apperaing in com-
plete make-up and costume
with autographed pictures.
Another highlight of the
show will be Playboy Maga-
zine’s 20th Anniversary
Double Centerfold Play-
mate, Nancy Cameron.
Over 200 displays and
exhibits will include special
features, famous champion-
ship show cars and interna-
tionally prominent sport of
speed personalities. Compe-
tition will comprise more
than 50 classes; Customs
and Rods, Antiques and
Classics, Dunebuggies, Street
Rods, Motorcycles and
Mini-bikes, Vans and Trucks,
Race Cars and Drag Racing
Machines.
To excite race fans is
Don Schumacher’s Stardust
Vega Funnycar. For the
sensualist, vans are showing
the range of possibilities in
transforming ordinary ‘“‘eco-
nolines” into thickly car-
peted, plushly interiorized
pleasure rooms on wheels.
Plus the most outstanding
street machines rebuilt and
restyled by local residents.

square foot superstore of
the 70’s will be located in
the Fairlane Village Mal

Weis Markets is a multi-
faceted food company that

and carry grocery store in
1912 into a company that
today owns and operates 90
supermarkets in Pennsylvan-
ia, Maryland, and New York,
Sunbury Sea Food Company
which distributes frozen sea-
food and grocery items to

er in the food retailing in-
dustry, Weis Markets oper-
ates 1,968,000 square feet

program the company guar-
antees the beef that its cus-
tomers purchase will be ten-
der, without the use of
chemical and mechanical
tenderizers and has gone to
great lengths to electroni-
cally test each side of meat
for tenderness before it is
processed in its Central Meat
Processing Facility in Sun-
bury prior to being sold in
its retail stores. :
Letters
Dear Editor:
What can you say about
a man who took a mere
handful of people multiplied
them from everywhere and
gave them a feeling of be-
longing and believing? We
at St. John’s Episcopal
Church were a lost people,
only a few old faithful re-
mained. Our Church had
fallen from a prosperous one
to merely existing. Many
times you could count the
attendance on your two
hands. Yes, Father Red
didn’t have much to work
with when he was given
this “Mission Impossible.”
His task was to make St.
John’s a parish again able to
support our own church and
rectory. One by one we
came back, this man gave
where there was none, re-
sponsibility where needed, a
sense of belonging and a re-
newed faith in our Lord. At
first Father Red traveled
from Dauphin to Marietta
every week, leaving his home
and family, while he met
with the backbone of what
was left of St. John’s, our
loyal vestry. Always during
his long weekend he found
time to visit any sick ones
or shut-ins.
Father Red and his wife,
Dorothea, now reside at St.
John’s rectory,however they
maintain their home at
Stoney Creek Valley, Dau-
phin, Pa. The father of
three children, Father Red
is a graduate of, the Univer-
sity of Penna. school of
dental medicine with a doc-
tor of dental surgery de-
gree. He practiced dentis-
try for over 20 years in
Harrisburg and Mechanics-
burg, and was very active in
the Harrisburg dental socie-
ty. In addition to being
our full time rector he holds
down a full time job as Dis-
trict director of seven coun-
ties in region II and Region-
al dental consultant region
II of the Department of
Health.
In 1958 he became an
ordained Deacon in the Epis-
copal Church, he then ser-
ved for 10 years as assistant
to the Dean of St. Stephen’s
Episcopal Cathedral, Harris-
burg, Pa. On November 35,
1972 he was ordained to
Priesthood, and on May 1,
1974 he was appointed
priest in charge at St. John’s
in Marietta.
We at St. John’s take
our hats off to this special
man and would like you,
the people of the commun-
ity to know of him and
welcome him and his family
to this area.
