Gas service cutoffs threaten Erie area users of unauthorized heat
The Pennsylvania Gas Co warned 300 to 400 Erie area customers using permanent gas heating without permits to replace their systems within 10 days to avoid service discontinuation. The crackdown follows high gas use and past shortages and aims to prevent a repeat of 1946 47 outages. A separate report notes Amos Marko 59 of York killed after being struck at a street intersection by a motorist who did not stop.

Girl Abductor Hunted After American Kidnapping in Germany
Ruth Shelton, an 18 year old American girl in postwar Germany, said a gunman in a U S uniform abducted her from a motor car then warned she would be killed if she moved. She was later found by two American corporals and returned to her mother in Frankfurt. Thousands of American troops and more than 10 000 German police hunted for the kidnapper in the largest manhunt in Wes Germany. The abductor reportedly claimed he had escaped from a Mannheim stockade but authorities denied any prisoner was missing.
