SNOOPS and Local Notes From the Springs Creek Incident
Eugene Buchter, son of Mr and Mrs Harry Buchter of New St fell in Springs Creek on his way home from school last week. He could not swim and, recalling the scare, told his mother I sure was scared and I talked right away to see if I was dead. Bill Eshleman chided us Wednesday for omitting an article he gave. He learned the RECORD would be out Friday morning and found last week’s issue. A man previously arrested for illegal parking after multiple warnings found Lancaster police still issue tickets for parking on the wrong side of the street Friday.
