Proposed Annexation of 64
Acres Discussed by Town
Council; Foreman Named
Annexation, naming of a
borough foreman, plans for a
change in the Zoning Ordinance
and awarding of a contract comprised the business at Tuesday
night's meeting of Kutztown
Town Council.
Members of the Kutztown
Area School Board met with
Council to discuss the proposed
annexation of 64 acres of Maxatawny Township to the borough.
The tract is located at the southeast end of the borough and on
the east side of the Kutztown-
Lyons road. It would include
the 32-acre site of the proposed
$1,655,000 senior high school and
also 18 private properties. A
petition to be signed by the
property owners requesting annexation has been drawn up and
is ready for circulation among
the owners. It must be signed by
a majority of the property owners and then"given to the
borough after which notice will
be given to the Maxatawny
Township supervisors that the
signers desire annexation to the
borough.
Council officially named
Walter Herber as acting borough
foreman at a salary of $2.25 per
hour. He will administer the
duties formerly handled by Earl
Abel who resigned last month.
A successor to Abel has not been
named.
Council announced a public
hearing to be held at 8 p.m. as
part of the Dec. 9th meeting. It
will be for the purpose of
amending the Zoning Ordinance
changing the classification of the
area south of Chestnut St. The
area, annexed to the borough
last year, would be changed
from a farm to an industrial
district.
A contract was awarded to
Republic Steel Corporation,
Harrisburg, for 450 feet of 30
inch corrugated storm sewer
pipe at a cost of $1,930.50. It
will be used to replace the existing storm sewer between Bieber
Alley and Saucony Creek near
the locker plant.
Kutztown National Bank was
granted permission to construct
a 35-foot driveway along Constitution Blvd.' It will be used
for drive-in banking.
Council decided that any
adults or adult groups desiring
to use the second floor of the
Town Hall for meeting purposes
should make reservations with
Carl Bortz, borough secretary.
Occupancy of the second floor is
limited for use by adults only
and is available now to interested adult groups.
The purchase of streamers of
Christmas lights to be placed on
two trees at the park was authorized. The community tree will
again be placed on the triangle
in front of Town Hall.
Secretary Bortz was authorized to notify the Department of
Highways that it would be responsible for plowing snow and
placing anti-skid material on
state routes within the borough
limits.
A motion was adopted to turn
over the borough owned resusci-
tator and inhalator to the lire
company. It had been formerly
loaned to and used by the Lions
Club on its ambulance.
An appropriation of $250 was
granted to the Kutztown Visiting Nurse Association.
Fines collected by Justice of
the Peace Jarrett Nicks for October amounted rto $5.

As A Vocalist
And Pianist
The death last week of Miss
Arlene R. Smith, who resided in
Philadelphia for the last 30
years or more, was received with
regret and memories by many
people  in this area.
Miss Smith was a daughter of
the late Rev. George B. and
Mary I Reynolds) Smith. Rev
Smith was the pastor of the then
St. Paul's Reformed Church for
many years and Miss Smith was
educated in the local public
schools and the Teachers College
and was one of the town's popu
j lar young girls.
Her talents as  a vocalist and
a pianist were early discovered

■ opportunity to develop them and
she made them her life's career.
She had many students in Kutz-

was director of her church choir

many people in this area to de-

Area Residents Worried
A crew of men with core drilling equipment which has been
working along the Maiden Creek
between Moselem and Virginville has created rumors of a
Federal dam with a breast of

Residents ot the* area were visualizing the abandonment of
their homes and farms with the
large lake which would hi* impounded by such a dam The talk
