struction at Stony River dam, and
to a huge crane, it was learned
from workmen this week

Lightning Hits Barn
But Damage Slight

A modern barn at McHenry with
60 Holstein dairy cattle was struck
by lightning Saturday, August 8,
about 10:45 o'clock, during one of
the electrical storms experienced
in this section over the weekend.
There was little damage to the
barn and none of the animals ap-
peared injured, but fencing 500
feet away was practically melted.
Kenneth Yoder who operates the
Grade A dairy at McHenry, said
he and his family we're in their
house when the lightning struck.
Switches were knocked out in the
barn, few blocks we're blown off
the silo, and light bulbs and
window glass were broken in the
house The telephone lines we're
put out of commission.
Accident and Oakland volunteer
fire companies were summoned
but there was no fire resulting
from the bolt of lightning. How
ever, firemen checked the wiring
in the barn and house. Yoder said
the barbed wire fencing some 500
feet from the barn was just about
disintegrated. The residence is
some 200 feet from the barn.

were building which would mean
more employment, resulting in
greater advantages for all the pop
ulation. AS the population rises,
more and better services must be
provided. He said it was his feel
ing the state government was ready
to provide the services as they are
needed
Roads are needed to solve the
areas problem of isolation" he
continued Roads are necessary to
provide safe and speedy transpor-
tation between Western Maryland
communities and the vast popula-
ton centers and market places of
the East"
The modernization of U. S. route

from Oakland to Baltimore by more
than 80 minutes Further reduc-
tions are expected

Plans FinaIized
For New Industry
Locating Here
Site For Plant Is Inspected
On Tuesday

Kenneth c. Sherman, president
of Sherwood Products, Inc, and
representatives of the Mt Top
Chamber of Commerce at Oak
land, met Tuesday to finalize
plans for Sherwood Products new
plant which is to be constructed
just southeast of Oakland
James Rook, president, said a
lengthy discussion was held con-
corning technical phases of the
plant along with a personal site
inspection. Plans and specifica-
tiOns are in the process of being
prepared and Rook said he hoped
that actual construction could be
started early in September.
Present for the Tuesday session
also were William A. Shirer, Earl
Zepp and S. R. Pagenhardt, at
torney.
Members of the Chamber of
Commerce have started the sale
of Trust Certificates which will
represent the Chambers partici-
patton in the project. The certifi-
Gates will be issued on a 20-year
basis, paying annual interest of
percent The Chamber expects to
have its portion of the financing
completed within two weeks so
there will be no hold-up on the
construction.
Mr. Sherman hold a patent on a
new method of processing cellu-
lose material to form products
previously turned or carved from
wood. The first articles to be manu-
factured would be bowling pins
with unusual resistance to split
ting. Any type of cellulosc materi-
atwood chips, Sawdust and even
old rags would be useablc and
the result would be an extremely
hard, durable and grainless OBJ
ject Another early application of
the process is gunstocks and even
armor plate is possible. There are
also other applications.
The site selected is near the
Harco Lumber company plant and
also adjacent to the Oakland Air
Brakes plant on U. S. 219, just
south of town.
The Mt. Top Chamber of Com
merce is planning to construct a
steel and concrete factory build
ing containing 19,400 square feet,
plus an office of masonry con-
struction with 5000 square feet.
The buildings would be leased to
the manufacturing company.

Order Local Guard
Unit to Cambridge

Gov. J. Millard Tawes has
ordered the local National Guard
unit, Company c. first battalion,
1l5th armor, to Cambridge for an
eight-day period, according to in
formation received from Mrs. Ma
hlon Yost, wife of the company
commander.
The guards have been in camp
for two weeks and Wednesday
were sent to A P. Hill in Vir-
ginia, from where they were
scheduled to depart today for Cam
bridge. Their active duty has been
extended for an eight-day period,
she said.
The reason for calling the unit
to Cambridge, was said to have
been the result of a petition to
force Cambridge's public accom-
modations amendment to a refer
endum vote of the people. The
petition, containing some 1,400
signatures, was scheduled to be
filed with the town clerk today or
tomorrow. If found valid Cam
bridge residents will vote on the
question of whether to lower ra-
cial bars in restaurants and other
places of public accommodations.
The guards were being sent
there as a precautionary measure.
