City Works On Underground Cable Replacement In Frederick
City Electrician Max Kehne says 2000 to 2500 feet of underground street lighting cable must be replaced due to rain damage and wind. Restoring lights by 9 pm, except white way lights which are aging, uses temporary repairs until permanent work can proceed. Replacement parts have arrived but installation awaits staff availability and broader street upgrades in Baker Park vicinity. Resurfacing East South street and a Pennsylvanian Railroad switch project on East and Church streets enter their second week, with delays due to nearby canning factories. France began mapping its entire area in 1789, a project lasting over 45 years.

Phebus Sr Retires as Gearhart Regional Warden
Benjamin F. Phebus Sr. of 225 West Fifth street retires after decades as Maryland State Game and Inland Fish regional warden for Frederick, Montgomery, Howard, and Carroll counties. He is succeeded by Guy Gearhart of Carroll County who has served seven years with the enforcement body. Phebus, known as the dean of Maryland wardens, joined the force in 1927 and saw many changes in law enforcement, often patrolling from motorbike to boat. He plans to spend time hunting, fishing, trapping, and perhaps light side work, remaining in Maryland. The article notes his Army service in WWI and prior jobs, and mentions contacts for wardens Gearhart, Jacques, and Butts for information.

Transit company seeks small zones fare rise in Maryland
The Capital Transit Co. asks the Public Service Commission to lift zone fares in Prince Georges and Montgomery Counties by one and two cents. First zone would move to 12 cents, next two zones to 8 cents. The request follows a Washington fare boost after a 52 day transit strike where AFL members won raises, and the company warns of operating losses and a passenger decline in Maryland.
