The armory has for a long time
been a “sore thumb” for Town Coun
cilmen, not only from an expense an
gle, but for other reasons, so that the
desire now exists to transfer it to the
National Guard.
Mr. Fry stated that if the National
Guard is given title to the armory, it
will be available for public use as at
present.
Mayor Haskett appointed Graham
Byrum, John Mitchener and J. Clar
ence Leary as a committee to confer
with the Edenton school trustees and
National Guard officers, to determine
the property line if the armory is tak
en over by the National Guard.
While not on the agenda, the prob
lem of zoning Edenton again cropped
up and consumed quite a lot of time.
A delegation was present, apparently
favorable to adopting a zoning ordi
nance, and after a lengthy discussion,
Mayor Haskett stated he will ap

I point a committee within a few days
: which will be asked to study the feasi
bility of zoning and submit a report
lat a special meeting when a report
is ready.
| The idea of zoning is not new in
Edenton, for at various times it has
bobbed up but not definite action was
taken. Some few years ago an ordi
nance was drawn up, but so much op
position developed that it was drop
•ped after a great deal of time and
effort was spent by a zoning commit
tee.
At Tuesday night’s meeting an
agreement was presented between H.
M. Phthisic and H. G. Quinn, owners
of the P & Q Super Market, and the
Town of Edenton providing that the
town maintain the portion of land ly
ing on the east side of South Broad
Street now provided by the P & Q
Super Market as a parking lot. The
agreement is for the town to direct
traffic over the lot, erect and main
tain signs directing traffic, erect and
, maintain thereon an adequate light
ing system and cover the road with
marl.
At the meeting Town Clerk Ernest
Ward was instructed to advertise de
linquent taxpayers for 1953 taxes on
Monday, May 10, and the sale to be
held Monday, June 14.
R. E. Aiken was awarded a con
tract to audit the town’s books at a
cost of S2OO.
With Chief of Police George I. Dail
I in the hospital, R. L. Pratt presented
the monthly police report, during
which he emphasized the need for an
• other telephone in the police station.
Fire Chief R. K. Hall reported that
: in March the firemen answered seven
alarms, six of which were in town and
one out of the city limits. Due to an
swering calls in the county, Chief Hall
; pointed out that a two-way radio is

this questioning that he was found
dead.
Mrs. Cochrane knew Smith as a
neighbor and told SBI agents that at
one time he asked for a date when
she was home scam-college, but she
‘refused and that she knew of no rea
son why anybody should have plant
ed bombs in her as well as her hus
band's car.
Adding to the belief that Smith
planted the bomb in Mrs. Cochrane’s
care is a report from the SBI that
some powder was found in Smith’s
car which were similar to that in the
bomb and that some wire was found in
his shirt which compared with that
placed in the bomb.
Mrs. Cochrane’s resignation as Cho
wan County's home demonstration
agent is effective today (Thursday).
She is scheduled to marry George Al
ma Byrum Saturday, April 24.
