V 01.33 No. 15 Survey Result Is Evaluated By Merchants Citizens' comments on shop ping facilities in Chapel Hill and Carrboro, based on the results of a surrey of Glen Lennox families, were presented to members of t Trade Promotion Committee the Chapel Hill-Carr boro Mer chants Association Wednesday afternoon at a meeting at the Association's headquarters.

The proposal for such a survey will be presented at the Association's next meeting.

Odum and 1 set out from Chapel Hill in his car. We drove ail day, passed through Ashe ville. stopped for the night, at a tittle mountain town, and the next afternoon ar rived in Dayton. There we saw John Thomas Scopes, a young biologist, tried on the charge of teaching the Dar winian theory of evolution in the Dayton high school. This was in defiance of a ( law, recently enacted by the Tennessee legislature, pro hibiting the teaching in the public schools of the state of theories contrary to be jlief in the divine creation of jman as related in the Bible. The Scopes trial was on the (font page of every (newspaper in the United States for day*.
