In a precautionary move, Union Mafacturing Company representatives agreed to close the Frederick plant temporarily after negotiations with Mayor Donald B. Rice. A separate sale at J.B.

Fire Chief Lenny Cannon also directed a benefit show at the new 100000 dollar fire hall, and FSK merchants advertised a money saving sale with a chance at 50 dollars in merchandise.

An exchange student from Pert spoke at a Zonta Club meeting.
