Street Blocked For Three Days WHITECHURCH-A storm similar to those recalled by the old-timers hit this part of the country last week, which brought to mind the times when men with shovels, and teams attached to V -type plows broke through the clogged roads. If the drifts were too high, the team was unhitched from the sleigh and put through the bank. Some horses became adept at following the old trail, and proud were their owners. Those who couldn't follow a trail usu- ally crowded and often"corked" themselves. The north street of the vil- lage didn't have a plow on it for three days last week. The last time this occurred was in March, 1947, when the same street remained blocked for three days.
