Pie Smackers Have Big Day on Two Campuses
Pie throwing disrupted two campuses as Tennessee Governor Ray Blanton was hit with a lemon meringue pie at the University of Tennessee in Chattanooga and Bowdoin College President Roger Howell Jr. was hit by three pies in Brunswick Maine. A student, Paul Scates, admitted the prank saying it was a vaudeville gag while he was arrested and later released on bond. At Bowdoin a student group dubbed the Bowdoin Baker led a pie-throwing spree raising funds for Vietnamese orphans. Howell remained composed, signaling approval with a thumbs up as the crowd watched.

Dairymen Quit as Costs Rise and Milk Prices Fall
Harrisburg reports two Cumberland County farmers Richard Deardorff and John Hosler quit dairy farming after decades of work. Rising costs for fertilizer, feed, and equipment plus lower milk prices left Hosler with a 45 cent per 100 pounds shortfall this year. Hosler auctioned his Holstein herd and equipment. Deardorff sold cattle at loss and shut down his operation. Both cite aging, labor strain, and diminishing returns as factors.

Secrecy in Slaying Ruled Out in Albion Pharmacy Case
District Attorney Robert Chase announced no charges against Albion Police Chief Richard Shiley in the fatal shooting of John S. Renard during a pharmacy burglary chase. He cited Section 508 allowing deadly force to prevent escape when a violent felony is involved, and said some investigation details remain to protect the state police search for the other suspect. The incident occurred as Shiley fired from the roof with a 12 gauge shotgun, and Renard, 23, of Richmond, Va., was killed while fleeing.
