Water
(Cont'd. from Page 1)
before they realized that the
water hydrants were turned
on, since the lack of water
pressure had stopped the flow
of water.
All the hydrants were cap-
ped by G a.m, and water be-
gan filling the storage tank
again. But the water was dir-
ty, and it took some time to
get the pressure back to
residents. Many residents
awakened to find no water,
others found water but with
much dirt in it. It took until
Sunday night for the tank to
completely fill, city officials
reported.
Police said they have sev-
eral suspects in mine con-
cerning the hoax. City Secre-
tary Bud Knorpp stated that
when the culprit or culprits
are found, he will make them
pay for the 500,000 gallons
of water which were lost,
which comes to about $250,
and will make them pay over-
time for 3 men, which comes
to $46.60.

Someone drained the water tower Friday night by turning
on the fire hydrants. It was a terrible inconvenience for
all, but worse for the Kenneth Vanghan family. It was Lin-
da's wedding day. Understandably so, Kenneth was NER-
VOUS! When somebody Jokingly asked him why he was so
jittery, he replied, "What a day for the water to be dirty
and for the telephones to be outl" Kenneth looked nothing
but suave, when he had a beautiful and radiant Linda on his
arm walking down the aisle.
