About 40 workers within a 1000 foot area were evacuated as Hazardous Materials teams from Frederick County Fort Detrick and the MDE investigated a tanker incident. Air samples taken near the tanker showed no contaminants while tests on the waste oil for lead content will decide if Lehigh Portland can burn it. The plant typically burns five percent waste oil and ninety five percent coal in its cement process and will wait on test results to prevent a recurrence.
The Baltimore Zoo reports its lone bull African elephant, Joe, died about 2:30 p.m. Thursday while being treated for a chronic colic condition.

In Frederick County nearly 30 000 students, minorities make up about 10 percent and only 11 teachers represent other races. County efforts push male and minority recruiting through student teacher programs with minority colleges and Maryland schools and a tuition aid for men who commit to teaching in county elementary schools.

The largest newcomer age group is 22 to 23.

Aldermen Baker and Kreissig saw no support, while Murphy and Grimes excused themselves due to ties to the fair board. Alderman Lee declined to second both motions, citing non profit status concerns and memories of segregated restrooms. The aldermen also tabled a lease amendment with the Frederick Keys for Harry Grove Stadium pending draft completion by attorneys.
The community’s chief negotiator Ray MacSharry of Ireland resigned on Thursday amid anonymous EC claims that Delors pressured him to slow talks.
