Middletown Schools Implement 14 Fuel and Power Guidelines
Superintendent Robert Johnson sent 14 guidelines to all principals in the Middletown public school system to cut electricity and fuel use. He stressed responsibility to minimize the problem even though the energy situation is not currently an emergency. Recommendations include not opening windows when the heating system runs and keeping daytime thermostats at 68 degrees where feasible. Older buildings with a single central thermostat may exceed this, and night thermostats should be 60 degrees on weekends and holidays.

Holdup in Monroe Motel Wounds Clerk Flees for Help
In Monroe at the Day's Inn two holdup men fired as they demanded money. Clerk Dale Kellis, 23, was wounded in the left leg and fled about 30 feet toward help after a shot whizzed past his head. Fellow clerk Maurice Ninio faced the gun as about $750 was grabbed and the safe was searched. Police and deputies mounted a three hour manhunt with a Middletown police dog before ending the search. Kellis was treated at Middletown Hospital and returned to work two hours later.

Butler and Hamilton counties oppose an Army Corps flood control proposal for Mill Creek, seeking OKI Regional Planning Authority to reject the plan. The project would repurpose 1800 acres in Union Township from industrial and agricultural use, with county leaders arguing the flood plain benefits Hamilton County more.
