Pittsburgh salvage man buys Apollo steel plant amid uncertainty
M and Solomon of M N Landay Co bought the Apollo Pennsylvania mill that had been shut for months by Phoenix Apollo Steel.

Solomon said he bought to help the town. In Ligonier Pennsylvania, moviehouse prices rose after a 10 percent municipal tax hike plus federal and borough levies, raising admission fees by 60 percent from 0 to 0.50. The two theaters reopened last week under the new pricing.
