The delegation is making a tour of the United States and their visit here is part of their itinerary because so many Norwegians came into the Kendall area in theearly 1800s. They are under the direction of Alfred Hauge of Stavanger who came here 10 years ago and under the guidance of Richard Canuteson of the Gaines Waterport Road visited North Eastern Orleans. Since that time Hauge has interested a number of his countrymen in making the trip to America. Canuteson said that originally Cleng Peerson came to America in 1821 from the Stavanger area to seek lands for Norwegian immigrants. While the original group Sears Is Cl Lockport S LOCKPORT - I was an- nounced over the week end that Sears, Roebuck & Co. will close its 77,000 square foot downtown Lockport store, plus the nearly 21,000 square ft. automotive service center. These buildings, erected in 1966, were a giant program in- tended to be the hub of Lock- port's downtown renewal. However, competition from a growing number of nearby malls and plazas has hurt, and also it was emphasized that Sears has placed a large store in the Eastern Hills regional shopping center south of Lockport and would be opening another large store in the Wheatfield Summit Park Mall in about a month. Edward A. Brennan, manager of the Sears retail operations in \W.N.Y. made the announcement of the downtown Lockport closing and said about 135 fulltime and part-time em- ployees would have the chance to transfer to other Sears units if they choose. e Sears has been a downtown Lockport when it first took 25,000 sq.: ft''in 'the Bewley BfIg. \The closing of the handsome downtown facility was a hard blow to city officials and drew quickresponse from Mayor prepared to leave Norway, Peerson purchased several parcels of land from the Pulteney Estates at offices in Geneva. The immigrant party consisted of many Quakers who had suffered persecution at the hands of the Norwegian authorities, Norway being officially Lutheran. They bought a small sloop- rigged ship, filled its hold with Swedish iron for ballast, which they planned to sell in New York. The 52 passengers sailed on July 4, 1825, and landed in New York 98 days later. Their number increased by one during the voyage as Mrs. Lars Larson, wife of the ship's carpenter, gave birth to a daughter. - New York City custom officers tried to fine the group $3,150 for having too many passengers for the size of the ship, but President John Quincey. Adams pardoned them.Larson stayed in New York and sold the ship, while the rest traveled by steamboat to Albany and by canal boat to Holley. osing | : fore ' Raymond Betsch who pointed out that officials were not kept in- formed of the Sears plans and who pointed out the serious impact of the move in the downtown over-all plan. In fact, Williams Brothers Co. is in the process of selling its long-time Main St. store to the Urban Renewal Agency and establishing a new downtown . store as part of the renewal plan. Mayor Betsch said, \Sears has made a mistake. There are some very hopeful signs of increasing strength in Lockport's central business district. Industry here is expanding, the housing curve is turning up, but the departure of Sears is the result of years of negativism and conservatism in the urban renewal approach which has been a retardant by lack of aggressiveness. Let's hope this will startle renewal officials into action.\\ Sears has a 20-yearlease with Stephen Siciliano of Johnstown, Pa., and it is rumored that a new tenant is planned for the space.

At Orleans Fair That's Right!-Square Dance on Horseback A square dance on horseback this week on Friday at 7 p.m. From Holley they walked: 12 miles to the land Peerson had bought for them. After Larson sold the ship he arrived in Albany to find the canal frozen. He bought skates in order to skate to Holley. The Norway Road area was heavily forested and in the early 1830s and Peerson went to Illinois to locate open lands and part of the group moved west. During the following 70 years there was a constant turnover of Norwegian immigrants, some staying a while in the Kendall area to learn English and earn enough money for the trip far-. ther west. ‘ a Mr. Canuteson stresses this is not a public tour as ac- - Summary ° ® MEDINA POLICE Two cases have been cleared following the . defendants' ap- pearance before Judge Bernard Hart on July 29: Charles L.
