10 Years Ago More than 40 Indiana street commissioners watched the relining of a 125-year-old section of Warsaw's sewer system on Market Street Aug. 24. A coil of needle-woven material was forced through the 9-feet-deep existing clay tile system. The tile had been used since the sewer's installation in the late 1800's. Once the new material was in place inside, hot water was flushed through the coil to activate a chemical reaction to harden the material. After two hours, cold water ran through the system to rinse the material. Some areas of Warsaw's sewer system consist of two layers of brick, which workers constructed after World War II. 25 Years Ago Right to Life 10th annual Baby Photo Contest winners: Grand prize winner is Laura Wallen, daughter of Mary Pat and Larry Wallen, Warsaw; Kristopher Ker, second; Frank Baumgardner, third.
