The board continues negotiations with May Co to recoup $50,633 overcharges from 1967 and 1968, with repayment not included in the current budget.

Withdrawal flood at Fruehauf Avon Lake credit union
Anticipated closing of the Fruehauf Trailer Company Avon Lake facility triggered a surge of withdrawal requests at the Fruehauf employees' credit union. The office closed at noon to slow withdrawals while union leader James Boggs assured members their money remained safe. If the plant closes, the credit union would be handed to the state central board for audit and disbursements. Boggs said the credit union is solvent and each share would pay 112 dollars if liquidation occurs.
