“The local Roxy Theatre manager, Barbara Walters, has reported a fifty thousand dollar loss in the fire that swept the theatre early this morning. Kitty Stalter, supervisor of the local telephone exchange, says that Harold Maloy, Roxy owner, cannot be reached. “Dale Thompson, veterinarian at the Shep Collie Kennels, owned by Dallas Shephard, has reported that the last of the strain of ‘Barkless Collies’ which they had developed has died. “The Hit Happy Baseball Team, managed by Darrell Beiter, a former local athletic star, is scheduled to play their first game of the season at Durtschi Park this afternoon. “County Health Nurses Mary Kohler and Mary Ann Gardner have discovered that the shampoo used at the Curola Beauty Salon, operated by Mary Gouts, is the chief cause of the skin irritation suffered by such prominent members of local society as Mrs. Bonnie Moore Ford, Mrs. Martha Sarchet Carruthers, Mrs. Marjorie Wearsch Hart, and Mrs. Doris Yarnell Stahl. This Shampoo which is a poduct of the Carr Curl Care Preparations Company, owned by Robert M. Carr, will be temporarily withdrawn from the market.” “Two of the high school teachers here in Newcomerstown, namely Marilyn Bean, Physical Education instructor, and Camilla Billings, Speech director, have gone on strike. It seems that the principal, Harold Van Voorhis. has been allowing the History teacher, his wife (nee Martha Jane Carney) what these teachers consider special privileges. They say the}- will strike until present conditions are corrected. “Tonight’s program at Carnegie Hall in New York will be a concert given by Norma Davis, the Metropolitan Culoratura Soprano, and Wrae Carr, a reknowned concert pianist.

In last Saturday’s issue you may have read: “ ‘For Sale, a 1960 truck complete with jet engine, in the Downtown Buckhorn Church tomorrow for only $1.’ The editor, Barbara Proud, wishes to apologize for the error. It should have read: ‘For Sale, a 1960 truck complete with jet engine. See Kenneth Haver, owner, Gord’s Garage.’ “ ‘Reverend George Saylor will conduct regular Sunday Services in the Downtown Buckhorn Church tomorrow'.’ “ ‘I give hour long piano lessons at my home for only $1. Miss Marjean Risher, Goodrich Street.’ “That’s all for now'. Until tomorrow this is your newscaster Don Hannahs. Here again is your friendly announcer.” “Listen to Headlines w'ith Hannahs tomorrow. Now' stay tuned for the Happy Housewives Hour with Emcees Eileen Hootman and Shirley John. Their guests today will be Mrs. Marv Roe Gates, Mrs. Janice Rogers Kohl. Mrs. Norma Johnson Stein-bach, and Mrs. Mildred Houge Bucklew. Don’t forget the WNCT Television Program starring crooner Dick Ray tonight. “Your announcer has been Smiley Kail. This is station WNCT, 1965 on your calendar.” Script Writers: Dianne Davis, Jacqueline Coker. Collaborators: Dean Combs, Robert Chapman. TWENTY-EIGHT

UJ A e 7 May 1965 “Howdy folks! This is Station WNCT Newcomerstown, Ohio, bringing you the early morning Headlines by Hannahs. This program is sponsored by Riggle’s Cud Chewers Company, manufacturers of ‘Dairy Products with Personality’. Now here’s Hannahs with a concise picture of the news for May 24, 1965.” “Good morning! This is Don Hannahs. “The Ohio versus Barnett case has been dropped by the Grand Jury because of lack of evidence. State Attorney, Richard Baker, had accused Joan Banett, the well known news photographer, of taking unauthorized shots of the State Electronic Research Plant, which is supervised by Earl Murphy, and sending them to Senator Robert Rennard. The Senator is suspected of un-American activities. Francis Haver, Miss Barnett’s lawyer, produced the pictures in question and they proved to be nothing more than pictures left over from the 1950 Newcosean. “Dr. Robert Chapman, dentist, and his assistant. Ruby Hayes, have just completed experiments on a new type of denture with removable teeth, interchangeable for daytime and evening wear. “The president of the 3G’s (Gwynn’s Glorified Groceries) Chain, Larry Gwynn, is being sued by Harold Hoffman, owner of Hoffman Hereford Farms Inc. at Dry Gulch, Arizona, for relabelling meat coming from his packing house. The manager of Hoffman’s farm. Bill Miller, brought the situation to the owner’s attention. Don Dunamel, the packing house superintendent, says he is not involved. The manager of the local 3G’s Market says that all beef he receives is labelled by his firm. Gwynn claims that J. Jerome Ross, the H.H.F.’s salesman, sold him the right to relabel the meat. Thus far Ross hasn’t confirmed the statement. “The R. F. Martin Air Craft Corporation announced last week that Donald Vogt, a Certified Public Accountant, had found their books in bad shape. Now what appeared to be a serious financial situation is known to have been the result of an oversight on the part of the firm’s head bookkeeper, Patricia Silverthorne. “State Highway Commissioner, Gene Little, has issued a final warning to all heavy hauling companies. Further violations of the load limit laws will be punished by the revoking of truck operators’ licenses indefinitely. The Carry-Most Trucking Company, owned by Clifford Mathews, is said to be the worst offender. Last week ‘Dillinger’ Hoot-man, County Sheriff, arrested two of Mathew’s drivers, Charles Angle, and Bill Mardis for over-loading. “Last night the Trojan Plaza was opened by Jim Patterson. The building was designed by Dean Combs, architect. Mary Alice Titus, of Interiors by Titus, Cleveland, supervised the decor. The furnishinigs include some excellent pieces of classic art collected by the distinguished artist Jacqueline Coker, who is studying in Italy. “Donald Hammerslej of the Hammersley Farmasootical Kompany reports that his technicians, Elinor Fiecoat and Marilyn Kohler, have discovered a new drug for baldness, but tests on billiard balls are not complete.” “The well known adventuress, Patricia Portz, will leave for Tibet this week with an expedition looking for prehistoric remains.” “John Murphy of the Energetic Engineering and Construction Company, that recently affiliated with Jaynes’ Tile and Brick Company, has bought the right to a new type of plaster compound. This chemical, developed by scientist Donald D. Silverthorne, can be used to regulate the setting time of any plaster. TWENTY-SEVEN
