Down Parma Five

ready holds 70-47 decision over
the Redmen.

the Cards to defeat a stubborn
Heights quintet, 1856, at Shaw.
Going into the final stanza,
Heights had dominated the play
with an aggressive running attack
and adept shooting by Dave Katz
and Armand Waxman. But Shaw
regrouped their forces to shave a
5O-44 lead to one point. Then Mike
Brophy, the 6 #. 8 in. center,
ignited the rally with a field goal
after 8 minutes of play to give
Shaw their first lead of the night,

tinued the onslaught, pouring in
"a of 81 points while holding the
Tigers to 6 points. The victory
deadlocked Shaw and Heights for
the second spot in the LEI. race.

in the closing seconds Of the game
helped the Jay Wees edge Heights,
46-42.
The Sophomores appeared to
have the game well in hand, lead
ing by nine points in the final

Water Supply For
Oakland Still Low

Water supply of the city of Oak
land remains low but the reser-
voirs at present have enough water
to fill normal needs.
This is partly due to the fact
that the town is getting an addi-
tional supply from well OF the
Carnation company Wells of the
town have not been sufficient to
fill the usual demands.
The new well being dug is down
to a depth of 100 feet, it was
learned yesterday, but it is planned
to go deeper. There is some water
in the well now.
The water shortage at Southern
High school prevented the sched-
uling of the football game there
last week since there was no water
available for showers. Water has
been adequate for drinking and
sanitation but special steps have
been taken at the cafeteria to de-
crease the amount of water
needed there.
AT Red House school water has
been hauled for the past two
weeks.
The we'll at Northern High
school is furnishing sufficient
water thus far.

POsCeT Company Treasures
deep Creek Property OsCneTs
No Change Contemplated
On Sufety Strip Use

That the Pennsylvania Electric
Company has no intention to dis
turb the relationship between the
company and the lot owners and
developers of the land adjoining
the company's safety strip, was
learned this week from a letter to
company employe from r. F.
Primer, secretary treasurer.
The company during the past
year had revoked a portion of the
privilege permits of several of the
owners and had leased to its own
employees portion of the safety
strip land for picnic purposes.
Owners of property around the
lake were becoming disturbed lest
such action become permanent
practice which they felt would be
the downfall of all property values
around Deep Greek Lake.
There are some sixteen hundred
or seventeen hundred homes
around the lake. Some of the prop
critics are bought and sold for
100000 and $4,000, while some of
the unimproved lots are selling
for as much as $50 per front foot.
This interest in property was
created through encouragement of
the various companies which have
held ownership of the lake, and
the company has granted permits
from year to year for use of the
safety strip of the power company
in front of all the lake front lots.
The land had been bought with
the assurance that the land would
continue to have these privilege
permit rights to the safety strip
in order to have access to the lake
for swimming, boating and fishing.
Property owners were beginning
to fear the consequences of a ma
jor drop in values, should the re-
voking practice be continued.
The letter this week should make
the matter clear that there is no
intention on the part of the COM
pany to break precedent with the
customs of the past thirty years.
The final paragraph of Mr.
Primers letter stated: Although
we have been sympathetic to the
requests of our employees for as
sistance in vacationing at the lake,
the fundamental policy of the COM
pany has not changed. There is no
intention now on the part of the
present management to disturb
the relationship between the COM
pany and the lot owners and the
developers of the land adjoining
the company's safety strip"

Five of the first shipment were

to The Board of Supervisors of

Flood Control Plan
Gets Emphasis At
Meeting on Monday

In the midst of drought condi-
tions and scarcity of water in Oak
land, there was intense discussion
of flood control for this area by
city, county officials and conserva-
tionists at the City Hall in Oak
land Monday night.
The groups were to focus their
attention on the necessity of OBJ
tanning easements from property
owners so that work could proceed
on construction of the five dams
proposed in the flood control pro-
gram.
1t was indicated that easements
for proposed dams one and two
should be obtained by January 1,
of 1858, which would make it pos
sible for contracts to be awarded by
the federal government for con-
struction of these dams by the
first of June.
There was some possibility that
the work plan would be abandoned
entirely by the federal government,
should the county group fail to act
within the next few months on the
procurement of easements.
w. R. Ratledge, assistant state
conservationist, who attended Mon
day nights meeting, said the gov
eminent had set aside $47,544 for
the cost of construction of dams
one and two and that it was pre-
pared to proceed next year if the
easements were cleared. But he
pointed out that the federal gov
eminent had gone as far as it
could, pending further action by
the local group.
Mayor Russell Smith said that
some twenty-four easements or
agreements from landowners were
needed.
