More Broadcast Time Asked By Small Stations The Daytime Broadcasters Asso ciation, Inc., of which Jack Younts of Southern Pines is president, has asked the House of Representa tives Small Business Committee to help its members get more time on the air. In a statement submitted to the committee Younts, president and general manager of WEEB, com plained that the Federal Commun ications Commission has let 10 years lapse without action on a “nationwide problem, vitally af fecting the national interest.” Younts said the association pe titioned the FCC in 1954 for re vision of its rules so as to author ize fixed hours of operation for daytime stations from sunrise or 5 a.m., at the point of transmis sion, whichever may be earlier, to sunset or 7 p.m., whichever may be later. Younts also told the committee another petition was sent to the FCC last December requesting prompt rule-making proceedings with respect to the enlargement of the operating schedule of day time stations. “No action has been taken on che last petition,” Younts reported Younts said he was directing his latest appeal to the Small Busi ness Committee because the 1,000 daytime stations in the country are the “small business” of the ra dio industry. is FIFTHS $3,25 PINTS $2.«5 GUBEY’S DISTILLED LONDON DRY GIN 90 PROOF. 100% GRAIN neutral spirits W & a.

COUNCIL (Continued from page 1) highest land use and building re quirements of any of the town’s three residential zones. There was no comment on the action in the public hearing that preceded the coimcil’s adoption of the amendment. The proposed change and the hearing had been advertised as required by law. Solicitalions Regulated An ordinance designed to elim inate fraudulent or undesirable solicitations for charitable and re ligious purposes was adopted by the council. The new law requires that per sons engaging in such solicitations obtain a permit from the cilj) manager and includes a detailed permit application blank that calls for such information as: offi cers of the organization, purpose of the solicitation, amount of fimds to be raised, need for the funds, methods to be used, state ment of the “character and ex tent” of the charitable work done here and elsewhere by the appli cant, and agreement to furnish within 60 days after solicitation has been completed a report show ing amount raised, disposition of the funds and other information. City Manager Tom E. Cunning ham told the council that grant ing of permits would be routine for recognized local charitable or ganizations such as the Red Cross. Town Attorney Lamont Brown, asked by Mayor Gilmore if the ordinance could be expected to “discourage charity or religion in Southern Pines,” said that it is designed to protect worthwhile organizations and eliminate un desirable ones. If soheitors can prove their qualifications, he pointed out, the city manager is bound by the ordinance to give them permits. Mr. Cunningham said the same ordinance—^which consists of six single-spaced typewritten pages —^has been adopted widely over the United States and is consid ered a model law. It has received nationwide publicity as a good or dinance, he said. The action on the solicitation law followed numerous complaints that had been made to the town office about persons who sought funds here for causes that were believed to be non-existent or fraudulent. Any person who is begging or seeking funds in town can now be asked to show his permit. If a permit is not shown, the police should be called, Mr. Cunning ham said. Knollwood Paving The council approved proposed paving and gutter work on a block in Knollwood—^Becky Branch Road, between Midland Road and Daffodil Road. The paving was requested in a peti tion received from a majority of the property owners in the block on October 31, 1955. A public hearing was held on the proposal owners will be assessed $1.25 per front foot for the improvements. There are four property owners on the block, Mr. Cunningham said. The two property owners on one side of the block and one on the other side asked for the pav ing, in the petition. M. L. Howard, one of the re questing property owners, spoke at this week’s meeting, as he had at former meetings, in favor of the paving. Brig. Gen. Pearson Menoher, also present, opposed the propo sal because he said paving of the block would throw additional traffic on the impaved portion of the street, on which his home is located, but in another block. He said he did not want paving in front of his house. He said also he did not think gutters were needed if there were not to be extensive parking along the street. The council discussed with the manager plans to install on this street a “flat” type of concrete gutter in place of the usual curb and gutter. Such a proposal had been made for the Knollwood area at a former meeting in or der to better preserve the rural atmosphere of the section, but still provide some means of car rying off run-off water that poses a serious problem in street main tenance in Knollwood. Mr. Cunningham said that he is investigating design and cost of the flat gutters—which would simply be hard-surfaced depress ed sections at each side of the paving. Te Buy Machine The council voted ^ to buy the fogging machipe which is now being used for spraying insecti cide throughout the town. The manager said that cost of the ma chine is $1,295, of which $500 has been paid as rent that can be ap plied on the purchase price. Oyer the course of several years, he said, the machine should prove a good investment and the town should save money on buying in stead of renting. Mr. Cunningham said the town office has received many favor able comments on the spraying program now being carried on. Some complaints have been re ceived, he said, from persons who said the machine has not been on their street. Reason for most of these complaints, he noted, is probably that the machine has to travel on the side of a block from which the prevailing breeze will carry the fog spray through that block. If the wind is not right, he said, the machine might not pass in front of some certain house. However, he admitted, it is very hard to work out a route for the machine that will adequately cover all properties in town. Land Sold The council authorized the deeding by the town of a narrow and irregularly shaped piece of land bordering the No. 1 highway thruway, on payment of $500 by the purchaser, Mrs. Janet Millen Folley. The land deeded, it was point ed out by the manager on a pre pared map, squares off the prop erty of the purchaser and is worthless to the town or to any other owner. Sale of the property had been advertised and a pub lic auction was held, but no bids were received. The property is a portion of the Piney Woods Estates that was deeded to the town by the pur chaser’s family some years ago. Mayor Gilmore, who had been previously requested by the council to appoint a committee to study privilege licensing in the town, reported that he had talk ed to about 12 persons and had found that active merchants are reluctant to serve on such a com mittee. He said he had received statements of willingness to serve from Jerry Healy and L. D. Mc Donald. The mayor said he would welcome suggestions of other council miembers about persons who might be asked to serve on such a committee and the matter was deferred until such sugges tions are made and further inter views can be conducted. Reporting on behalf of J. Vance Rowe, Jr., chairman of a com mittee named by the council to make recommendations on re vision of the town charter. Town suggested new charter wmdd be ready for consideration by the council at the August meeting. The council shceduled it for dis cussion at that time. To Invite C8cD Board The council authorized Mayor Gilmore to submit an invitation to the State Board of Conserva tion Eind Development, of which W. P. Saunders of Southern Pines is chairman, to hold one of its semi-annual meetings in South ern Pines as soon as possible. The board meets in the Fall and Spring each year. Meeting places for the C&D group have been chosen already for this Fall and next Spring, the mayor said, but an invitation will be extended for the next earliest possible meeting, perhaps in Oc tober, 1957. Southern Pines is joining other North Carolina commtmities in urging support for the Blatnit bill in Congress which would ap propriate $50 million in Federal funds to match local funds in sewer improvement projects. Southern Pines, which is starting to spend $150,000 in sewer bonds voted early this year, could bene fit greatly if the bill becomes law, it was pointed out by the mayor. Other Actions The council authorized the manager to advertise for public hearing at the next regular meet ing of the counpil (set for August 7, because of vacation schedules) the curbing and guttering Of W. Indiana Ave., between S. W. Broad St. and Bennett St. The work has been asked by a major ity of the property owners on the block in a petition received June 21. All property owners on the block will be assessed $1.25 per front foot for the work. An off-premises wine and beer license was approved for the new Colonial Store now under con- cense was approved for the new struction here. The manager was asked to advise the company that the license held for the present store location could not be trans ferred to the new store, as the council and former governing bodies have made it a policy not to transfer such licenses. A new license must be obtained. The mayor and Clerk Louis Scheipers, Jr., were authorized to deed to Sip Bostick a lot of the intersection of Hale St. and Iowa Ave. The buyer was high bidder when the lot was sold at auction on June 19. This bid was $100. regular session assembled this the 10th day of July, 1956, as follows: Section I.
