Town Aldermen Will Consider Matter Tonight By Raney Stanford Last weekend's violation by the Carolina Cab company of the Chapel Hill ordinance imposing a maximum charge of 25 cents on city rides will probably ';.; brought before the town board oi aldermen tonight, due to com plaints of local citizens. G. W. Ray. town manager, said yesterday that several people complained to him that while last week's heavy fall of snow and ice was on the city's streets town taxicabs upped their rats from the prescribed 25 cents. The city official said he conferred with Mr. Bartlett of the taxi company, found the reported increases were true, and they "discussed" it. Ray termed the taxi firm's ac tions as an '"unauthorized in crease." "We increased our charges to 50 cents in town and added 25 cents to our other standard rates when the traffic conditions were at their worst,"' J. T. Lloyd, morning dispatcher for the car riers, said yesterday. "We re moved the increase when people complained about it, and are now only charging regular fares des pite the current snowfall." The Carolina Cab dispatehf-r said the fares were raised due to the increase of operating costs and hazards during the bad weather now affecting the town. He cited the tire chains and in creased gasoline consumption used by the company s vemc,es during such, weather, the danger to drivers due to icy roads, arci the longer times taken on bad weather trips than normal, as some of the reasons. "Our drivers refuse to drive under such conditions, and we don't try to make them," he con tinued. He stated that the com pany's operations yesterday were adhering to the city ordinance greatly restricted by the firm's and its drivers then refusing to carry passengers. He expressed the doubt that the company could keep taxis on the roads if the current conditions persist. if 4 4 -V1 Disregard Emily Post You can eat with your fingers at HARRYS f '.V l ;iicd.;n Rendezvous Starts Couples Only Rule For Friday Nights Couples only wiH be the ad mission rule at Frid-jy nvj,hl ' Rendezvous floor sh.ow. accoi c;i: to Clarence Barbour.

Louis Is Lewis Says Shaw's housekeeper: "Mr. Shaw was shocked, but he did not say a word abovit the mix-up." I Xiondon, February 10. (UP) Sedrge Bernard Shaw, who lias l-ioekcd a lot of people in his firne,- has had the tables turned. ; Last Monday, somebody tele phoned the home of the play wright saying Joe Louis woidd like- to have tea with him. 2Shaw was delighted. Prize fighters are close to his heart. He wrote a plav abovit one call "Cashel Byron's Profession." ' lie had heard months ago that the heavyweight champion was ' making a trip to England and " wanted to visit him. : Tea time came around at his home outside London and who should appear but a gray-haired man with a fair complexion. He said he was flattered that Shaw j remembered him. He said they j rret years ago in the United i States. Shaw's housekeeper said today that the visitor was an American named Joseph Lewis, and that Shaw remembered h'm faintly. She could not identify Lewis beyond that. 'Lewis sat through tea. enjoying himself and left without knowing I vhat had happened.
