     Seth Hazlett has always been attracted to the water….even at  the
     age  of  two  months.   Darby said that by the age of 18  months,
     Seth  was  diving in the pool and swimming.  It was unbelievable,
     she  stated, you just couldn’t hold him back!  To read  more,  go

     A section of the Vandergrift News
     
     The  Kiski  valley this week experienced the biggest  flood  seen
     here since the memorable Johnstown deluge in 1889.  All the towns
     along  the  river  in this section are afloat, houses  have  been
     swept  away  and industrial operations throughout the valley  are
     interrupted  by  the high water.  East Vandergrift  was  covered.
     North  Vandergrift was also under water as the river crossed  the
     trolley track and reached back to the foot of the hill.

     NEWS  FROM  THE  VICTORIAN VANDERGRIFT MUSEUM  AND  HISTORICAL
     SOCIETY
     Beginning  April  6,  the  Victorian  Vandergrift  Museum  and
     Historical Society will be extending their hours.   They  will
     be  opened from 10am to 3pm, Monday through Saturday at  their
     new  location 184 Sherman Avenue, Vandergrift.  The President,
     Anthony  Ferrante is proud to be able to offer these hours  to
     the  public.  These hours far exceed most local museums.   The
     other volunteers who work at the museum are looking forward to
     the longer hours as well.
     
     Just  a note:  There are copies of “Something Better Than  The
     Best” available to purchase at the Historical Society.   I  am
     not sure, however, how many more copies are left.
