April 13, 1961 — The management of the Dee-Vee Garment Company of Stanley announces the suspension of operations in the Stanley plant located in the basement of the theatre building. The Stanley Chamber of Commerce says every effort is being made to re-open the operation. The cessation of the operations is due solely to the recent illnesses of the owners, Messrs. Nat DeLeo and Frank Vigo. About 100 persons have been put out of work.
