Hershey Briefs Highlight Local Doings And Mischief
Hershey notes include Mr L H Hollingsworth in Lebanon on business and a Harrisburg sight-seeing outing for his students. A quarry blast injures Mr Ad Boyer’s eye while Mr Wm Hughes resigns as Hershey Chocolate Co chief engineer and Ira Smith becomes interim. The Bellegrove milk route team had an icy crash. Hoffer Bowman rescues. Town activity spans a penny found from 1717, a centennial flag, Mascot lore at Moyer, and wedding plans for Ben Goss and Anna Fritz. Also updates on sick lists, a new tax business purchase by David Gordon, Y M C A opening, and Evangelist Dunlap’s Harrisburg stop.
