North School Yard to Serve as Temporary Parking Space
The North School yard in Middletown will become off street parking in a three way arrangement announced by the Chamber of Commerce. Calvin Verity, president, says the plan teams the Chamber, the Board of Education and Cecil Runyan to convert the yard for temporary use until the building is disposed of. Runyan will operate the lot, which will hold 65 cars and open after curb cuts on Main Street and removal of portions of the iron fence and fire escapes. The project is funded by the Board of Education.

Fire chief eyeing idle horses as ladder wagon falters
Fire Chief Fishbaugh warns the ladder wagon is nearly useless after a transmission failure with stripped gears. The No 1 unit at North Broad St may need two retired fire horses to reach high fires, while the No 2 truck from Crawford St will cover three to four story blazes. The long ladder is broken into two sections and the aging fleet risks more breakdowns. The department may fight tall fires by hand during repairs, with parts ordered from Cincinnati and repair time several days.
