Happenings In and
About Blowing Rock
Interesting News of Past Week
Froiti famou* Rcaort
Town
Blowing Rock, April 13-?The
Blowing Rock school situation, it appears.
must rest exactly where it is
until at least the first Monday in.
May.
The plans for the proposed new]
building have been approved by both
' the state superintendent of buildings
and grounds and by the county board
of education, but when they were
presented to the county comtnission<
r at their last meeting, that body
was preoccupied with the Cove Creek
speci.U school tax and failed to act
on the Blowing Rock plans.
It is con.-adored certain, however,
that the town will get i$s new school.
though the repeated delays may niaKc
n impossibc to have the school ready
for the opening next year.
An early beginning on the telephone
line to connect Boone and
Biowii-g Rock was seen last week in
the filing with Mrs. Pearl Hartley,
register of deeds, of 23 permits for a
right of way across parcels of property
between the two towns. This willbe
tin* third step in the network of
cable lines now being built over the
mountains. The Lcnoir-Blowing Rock
line is rapidly nearing completion, as
is the surveying of the Boone-Cranberry
line. All will connect with the
lntcr-Mountain Company's lines at
Boone. This company, with headquarters
at Bristol. Va., acts as a
connecting line for the Bell main

I them to stop. "Get out of the road!"
1 was the respor. e from the rapidly ap-i
i preaching car. The sheriff stood his ground
as long as he could, then 1
dodged to keep from being crushed : t j
under the wheels. The car then made
t a straight shot over G9 to Vilas, from
there going over No. GO, up Gove .'J
i Creek with the sheriff and a deputy ,
, in hot pursuit. l>.
The fleeing men .stopped at Dr. 1
