25 Years Ago Hampstead's Interim Zoning Near; Radar Arrives, Park Progresses—The Master Plan for Hampstead was heard in an uneventful hearing by the county and town officials Tuesday. The only change in the plan to come out of the hearing was the addition of some 50 acres of "restricted industrial" land. Hampstead officials have already approved the plan "as amended." The approval of the county and the preparation of necessary maps in the next several days is expected to make the plan official and provide Hampstead with the basis for Interim Zoning. The Interim Zoning ordinance will be introduced after the county approval and completion of the maps. In a relatively quiet town meeting Monday night the Hampstead council passed on routine matters such as paying bills and hearing committee reports. The Carroll Record, October 19, 1972.

50 Years Ago Gettysburg Students Warned - Dr. Henry Hanson, Criticized The Body For Damages To W. M. C. Campus Recently—Any Gettysburg college student who deliberately damages the property of any college campus will be promptly dismissed, Dr. Henry W. A. Hanson president of Gettysburg college, warns in a statement published in The Gettysburgian, college newspaper. Dr. Hanson issued his warning after six Gettysburg college students were apprehended while defacing property on the Western Maryland College campus on the morning of the day the football teams of the two schools met. The six boys are to raise $900 to pay for damage at the Westminster college, Dr. Hanson has disclosed. The Interfraternity Council at Gettysburg proposed and adopted a resolution recommending immediate expulsion for any person who repeated such acts as those committed at Westminster. Officials from Western Maryland originally estimated the damage at $1,500 but the final estimate is $900. The Campus Senate, at a meeting last week gave the six boys who were "caught" permission to take up a collection in chapel toward the $900 for the damage. Democratic Advocate, October 17, 1947.
