 In the news...


Ruh-Roh!

From the June 17, 1964 edition of the Aston County Recorder:

    "A local CPR freight train hit a van that wandered onto the tracks 
    yesterday near Aston. The occupants of the van, 2 men, 2 women 
    and a large Great Dane were shaken but otherwise unhurt. The driver 
    of the van, Norville "Shaggy" Rogers, claimed, "the gang, was like 
    checking out the spooky old building [Generic Canneries], when like this
    ghost got in the train and started driving toward us!."

    Police may have another explanation. A small quantity of biscuits were 
    found in the van and have been sent to the crime lab for testing. Toxicology
    results for Mr. Rogers are also pending.

    A spokesperson for Generic Canneries, Malcroft Withers emphasized that the        building is a going concern and that trespassing charges may be filed                   against Mr. Rogers and the rest of the gang. Mr. Withers said, "Generic 
    Canneries has enough troubles without a bunch of no good kids nosing                around."
