Firefighters from Mechanicsburg and the surrounding area were summoned to the fire at David Hilsingcr's business in the 100 block of East Strawberry Avenue shortly after midnight. Hilsinccr's business is at the rear of 137 E. Main St. Firefighters found the building in flames when they arrived.

Frances Amicucci handily won a four-year term as Democratic jury commissioner Tuesday, defeating Blaine Havice of North Middleton Township. Ms. Amicucci, of Mechanicsburg, outpolled Havice ,878. The jury commissioners annually prepare a "jury wheel" of names of qualified voters from which prospective jurors are drawn for the ensuing year. Each of the two largest political parties gets to choose a jury commissioner.

Republican incumbent Ralph Viehman ran unopposed. Long-time Democratic Party Jury Commissioner Winnie Williams decided not to run. Critics suggest the jury commissioner job no longer is necessary. In this technological age, they say, form letters to jurors can be spit out by a computer and mailed by a clerk who already is employed in the courthouse to do other things. Eliminating the two jury commissioner positions would free up thousands of taxpayers' dollars.

Viehman has disagreed in the past, saying jury commissioners are needed to make sure the process of choosing jurors is done impartially. Ms. Amicucci declined to respond to interview requests from The Sentinel during the campaign. Each jury commissioner is paid $10,974 this year. DJ Clement wins both primaries District Justice Charles Clement easily defeated his opponent, William Grubb, in both the Democratic and Republican primaries Tuesday.

Unofficial results show the 12-year incumbent got about 77 percent of the Republican votes and 71 percent of the Democratic votes. "I seem to have found my niche," he said as he awaited the final results at Puliti's Ristorante in New Cumberland Tuesday night. "I'm just very humbled and thrilled at the same time." Grubb, a lawyer, was unavailable for comment Tuesday night. Grubb's campaign slogan was: "The experience and education you deserve." He suggested a district justice should have a law degree -which Clement does not possess. "I think experience speaks louder than bookwork," Clement said.

Grubb had 759 votes to Clement's 2,532 on the Republican ticket. In the Democratic race, Clement had 861 votes to Grubb's 346. Clement's magisterial district includes Lower Allen Township, Lemoyne, New Cumberland and Shiremanstown. Campbell wins South Middleton nod Judy Campbell emerged with the GOP nomination Tuesday in the race to replace two-term South Middleton Township Tax Collector Robert Cairns. Five candidates campaigned for the position four Republicans and a Democrat.

Campbell tallied 834 votes, followed on the GOP side by Jerry Paden, 461 votes; Paul Dunbar, 166 votes; and Linda Roush, 128 votes. Lester Putt was the lone Democrat candidate and claimed that party's line with 242 votes. Mrs. Campbell, 49, is making her third attempt in 23 years to be tax collector. She initially ran in 1978, losing to Betty Williams.

Gruver wins in South Newton Donald Gruver won the Republican nomination for a six-year term as South Newton Township supervisor with 60 votes, beating out incumbent Richard Meily who took 28 votes.

Gruver said dozens of Republican write-in votes also were cast, eroding his support but not to the extent of keeping him from the nomination. "We've been working pretty hard for it," he said. "We went low-key because there was so much contention down here." During the summer of 1999 residents protested adoption of cable TV franchise fees and federal BOCA building codes. Neither was adopted and two of the three supervisors in place at that time subsequently resigned. Meily was appointed to a seat when Gary Johnston resigned from the board of supervisors last spring.
