    1. Double Wedding Revealed March 30, 1934 McDonald PA Record-Outlook
    2. Victoria Hospodar Valentine
    3. Double Wedding of Last September Comes to Light Leo MALARKEY, the McDonald high school football star, regarded as on of the University of Pittsburgh's potential gridiron greats, is married. His secret wedding last fall to Marian Alice MCBETH, a high school sweetheart, was revealed this week in the investigation of another McDonald high school romance. The Rev. A. D. EBERHART, a Methodist Episcopal minister at Newell, W. Va., performed a double ceremony in the parsonage there September 1. The brides were Marian Alice and her sister Hazel Elizabeth. Both marriages were carefully guarded secrets until James A. RUMBAUGH, Jr., Hazel's husband, disappeared from Columbia University, where he had gone last fall on a Pittsburgh scholarship. Young RUMBAUGH, a fine scholar during the first semester, Columbia University authorities said, did not return to his classes after the January examinations. His parents said that he had seemed "like a different boy" when he was home for the Christmas holidays. His wife, who now works in a Pittsburgh bank, said she had not heard from him since February 8. She scouted a report that one of his friends had received a letter from him, postmarked in Venezuela. When RUMBAUGH"s disappearance revealed his marriage the investigation led to Newell. There it was discovered that his marriage had been a double ceremony, with the MCBETH sisters as the brides and MALARKEY as the other bridegroom. MALARKEY was a star athlete at McDonald high and captained the 1931 football team, playing at quarterback in his senior year. His outstanding plays made him eagerly sough by colleges and universities. He choose Pitt, however, and enrolled in the Dental school He played brilliantly on the Pitt Freshman team in 1932 and last year came to be regarded as a probably worthy successor to Gibby WELSH, Tommy DAVIES, Jimmy DEHART, Warren HELLER, an other Pitt ball carriers, who have won national acclaim. As the dental course requires five year for completion, MALARKEY would be eligible, if he continues in school, for three years of varsity football.

    1. Long Ago March 23, 1934 McDonald PA Record-Outlook
    2. Victoria Hospodar Valentine
    3. Out of the Long Ago Forty-Five Years Ago March 23, 1889 April 30th will mark the last of all the great American Centennials, and the day will be celebrated in most of the cities and towns in the country as the one hundredth anniversary of the first Presidential inauguration. Wild geese noticed going north. Country roads are reported drying up. We hear nothing more about incorporation. An Eastend man killed nineteen dogs in one morning without apparently decreasing the number in his neighborhood. Only perishable freight is allowed to pass over the Panhandle on Sunday. Nearly one hundred McDonald people accompanied by a military band went to Pittsburgh last Sunday to take part in the St. Patrick's day parade. Monday evening a party of young ladies and gentlemen rode to and fro for sometime on Harry KEENAN's local coal engine between REND's and Jumbo, after which they explored the Nickel Plate mine, going nearly a mile underground. Patrick HARRIGAN of Bulger, foreman of a group of men who were engaged in loosening the ice above the mouth of the Bulger tunnel, was killed when a mass of the ice fell and struck the long pipe he was loosening it with, driving the pipe through his body. Postmaster HOEY has been informed that on and after March 22 four mails will arrive at McDonald each day instead of two. Joseph BROWN puts up a 16x25 story and a half frame addition to the SAUTER' s store, made necessary by an increase in business. Tuesday morning five freight trains were following the McDonald accommodation east. At Oakdale two of the freights had passed. The third was red-blocked, the fourth was just stopping behind it when the fifth suddenly dashed around a curve and into the rear of the fourth. Two cars of the fourth train were wrecked and the engine and nine cars of the fifth were derailed and much damaged. Conductor John MCNARY of McDonald was that morning acting as middle brakeman on the fourth train and James DOUGHERTY of McDonald was a brakeman on the hindmost train. All escaped injury. Thursday evening sixteen of the Ingleside students attended the reading circle at the house of James LITTLE in Cecil. They went in a wagon to which was attached two horses and two mules. Some clowns declared the mules were not all in front of the wagon. The next meeting will be held at the home of Squire MOORHEAD, April 4. McDonald's public school closed on Friday of this week. It will not open until next fall, there being no more public money. Fashion Notes Ermine is again seen on tea gowns. Veils of jetted net should be worn with jetted jewelry. Nearly all full-dress toilets, except for debutantes, are demi-trained. Stringless bonnets should always be accompanied by a flimsy mask veil. *Compiler's note: HUH? Specifically the full-dress toilet thing. The language sure has changed! Forty Years Ago March 17, 1894 The treasurer reports the cost of the garbage furnace as $216. This was the first furnace built outside the City of Pittsburgh, and destroys anything from a whole horse to a shovel full of garbage. The MONREAN well at Venice continues to make over 200 barrels a day. A 50-barrel well has been brought in on the STERLING farm at Venice. Oil is $.84. Scores of carpenters everywhere about McDonald busy with new buildings. At the Otto KRAEER sale near Midway, cows went at $1 to $13, and horses $20 to $50. Farm implements went very low. The McDonald Relief Committee appeals to the citizens for aid, as the need of relief is very great, many families being destitute because of the strikes at the mines.

The roads in Cecil township are away below the average in our land.

    3. Out of the Long Ago Forty-five Years Ago March 15, 1889 The McDonald Presbyterian Sunday school has grown to such proportions that some of the classes have been transferred to the chapel. A McDonald Corporationist: "You just wait till the months of July, and you 'll see a Board of Health walking round here in the hot sun looking at our pig pens, our outhouses, our stabled, our filthy backyards, our slaughter housed, our dead dogs and our dead hogs and dead horses and dead mules lying in the commons, along the runs, and about the suburbs. These officials will then order the town incorporated and cleaned up in the name of the Commonwealth." When Squire LOVE came to McDonald in 1873 to take charge of the mill that was then at this place, there were but few houses. The following included nearly all: Two Brier Hill blocks, the HADDEN residence, John A. HUNTER's house, a log house near where Mr. SAUTER's house now is, occupied by George SMITH, a teamster, the South Side Fannie JOHNSTON house, S. H. COOK's house, and the house of S. S. JOHNS, Patrick HOEY's house was at that time in course of erection. The Squire for a time lived in the red house in mud gulch on the Southside where Thomas LEWIS now is. The Laurel Hill mine was first opened during that summer. The U. P. church has purchased from the heirs through Hon. John N. MCDONALD the triangular lot in front of the church building, bounded by McDonald street and North avenue, coming to a point at Grant street. The church trustees have also bought from the same parties the quadrilateral north of the church bounded by McDonald street, North avenue, and Washington avenue.

EBEL, superintendent of the West Penn Lighting Co., sustained a fractured leg today when assisting in loading a car with poles. He lost his footing and fell a distance of 12 feet.
