John C. "Jack" Millhausen, an 84-year-old Fallston resident, is at least the second Marylander to die of fungal meningitis in a national epidemic that experts say is slowing but about which many questions remain. Millhausen died Nov. 15 at Gilchrist Hospice Care in Towson, his family said, not long after receiving a spinal shot of a contaminated steroid, several batches of which have caused nearly 600 cases of infections and 37 deaths across the country. Maryland health officials confirmed a second death in the state from the outbreak on Monday but would not confirm that it was Millhausen's, citing confidentiality rules.

The No. 7 Fallston girls soccer team made it clear throughout Saturday's Class 2A state championship game that it wouldn't back down against two-time defending champion Middletown. In an evenly-played game dominated by defense, it took a perfectly placed shot coming with 23 seconds left before the Knights from Frederick County had the needed goal to successfully defend their championship. Junior midfielder Mary Pritts solved the defensive puzzle, taking a feed from Mary-Kate Afzali and firing a shot from 22 yards that found the lower left corner.

Mike Euler, developer of the burgeoning Aumar Village shopping center at the Fallston intersection is proposing, of all things, a campground geared toward recreational vehicles. "In today's new economic world, people are using their boats and RVs as a second home," Euler pointed out when asked about the plan.
