at their regular meeting here
Monday night.
The commissioners briefly
discussed the complaints, or
dered that the complaints be
recorded on the minutes, but
took no further action In the
matter.

D. Towns that he be permit
ted to engage In the taxicab
business here.
Previous to the decision to
deny Town's application the

clerk to write to Howard D.
Mellen of John Bean Division
FMC Corporation, asking him to
meet with the commissioners
In a called meeting on Novem
ber 19, to discuss matters rel
ative to the nozzels on the re
cently purchased John Bean
Firefighter. It had been reveal
ed to the board that the nozzeli
fall to develop as much pres

Other matters before the

were of a routine nature.
Autographed Football Is
Sent To Haithcock Family!
North Carolina Guard Rlchy
Zarro , who played a big part
In Carolina's stunning win over
Clemson last Saturday, attri
buted the win In part to the fact
that the players dedicated the
game to the memory of Gordon
Halthcock, Jr.
Zarro said that the players
met without the coaches to try
to find out the trouble with Car
olina's play and during that ses
sion decided to dedicate the
game to their former teammate.
Elton Casey, sportswrlter for
The Durham Sun In his
Column on Monday quot
ed zarro as follows:
"Another element which
Zarro said figured In the great
play of the Tarheels was the
fact the players decided to de
dicate the game to the memory
of the late Gordon Halthcock,
a teammate who two weeks ago
'was killed In an automobile
Ident.
Halthcock was a Junior from
'enton, who was on a foot
scholarship at Carolina,
who did not make the trip
is, Ga., two weekends
where the Tarheels fall
ably. Carolina lost to
t4 to S.
Hlckey did not tell
his team of Halthcock's death
until after the Georgia game,
although there was a feeling
with some that word of the
tragedy had leaked out and that
It had something to do with
Carolina's poor showing against
the Georgians.
With mist In his eyes, Zarro
said the game ball used In
the rout of Clemson would be
presented to Halthcock's par
ents. Yesterday, back at their
home base In Chapel Hill, the
Carolina players autographed
the ball prior to delivering It
to the Halthcock family lnWar
renton.
