Relief Fund short of campaign goal but extended
Corry's 1999 Relief Fund drive neared the $10,900 target with only about $3,000 raised so far. The drive will continue into next week as committees strive to finish solicitations. Governor Roosevelt, a Democratic presidential hopeful, is favored to carry Curry according to local observers amid a Democratic trend. In sports, North West High School defeated Cory 20 to 7 at Athletic Field, while Charles Armitage survived a car wreck on the return trip from Union City where he works. George Thornton, VFW district commander, installed local officers on North Center Street with Walter Scott named commander.
