Mystery water problem in Hoosick Falls prompts probe
Hoosick Falls officials report a hidden pump may have been connected to village lines since May 1969, causing abnormal pressure and sand contamination. Records show regular high pressure on Sundays and midweek, suggesting possible automatic operation. Investigations extend to local industries, with costs mounting for residents and plans for equipment, chemicals, and filtration to locate and fix the source.

Manchester Schools See Miller Formula Cut State Aid
Manchester learns 1969 state aid falls 13000 short of expectations under the Miller formula. An 83399 check, though up 10 percent from last year, misses the 96000 budget. Superintendent Cross cites higher education costs and a smaller Grand List as causes and notes Dorset and Rupert were cut more. The board tours the new addition, holds back 11000 for defects, and faces a red school lunch program needing funds and loan consideration.

If no bids arrive, voters may be asked again for instructions.
