A 60 day window allows nearby towns to form fire districts or join Marshall. Meanwhile Gite Knowles reports 300 hogs unsold as market vanishes, and a collision near South Side school injures Mr and Mrs Miller and damages cars. Anniversary dinner for the Manharts and potato curiosities renew local life.
