While work on the access road is pend ing, construct a temporary con necting alley, two lanes wide, to funnel traffic from the Ral eigh Road at an angle across the southeast corner of the int?r -ection of the Raleigh Road and t . untry Club Road. The temporary road would per mit traffic to flow easily to a p< ;nt behind the new Institute < f Government building, where it would move onto the trails leading into the two parking areas. The University was prepared to begin work on the short cut-off ie\ as soon as permission could obtained from the owner of t\< land, Joseph Greer of Chi cago, As soon as the access road from the 15-501 bypass is corn lined, the temporary cut-off wo.. l«i he abandoned and the land restored.

Henry B. Stokes make a jplea for “tolerance, patience, j love, and cool heads” in the face <if racial tensions and integration I troubles in the South. Mi. Stokes, pastor of the Carr jhoro Baptist Church, opened the , PTA program with a short talk mi the importance of education. Ht* asked the group to examine ;the question, “Are we going to have education in the future?” “In some places in the South,” he said, “maybe our children will have to do without education for a while. I hope the action we took in voting on the Pear sall Amendment is going to be a | means of guaranteeing that we’ll j continue to have schools in every community.” (The Pearsall Amendment, ap proved by North Carolina voters on September 8, authorized state tuition grants to parents who object to sending their children 'to integrated schools, and gave local school districts the power to close schools in the face of “intolerable situations” brought about" by court-ordered integra tion.) “Whatever our stand on that matter,” Mr. Stokes said. “I hope we’ll all do everything we can to see that in our community our school never closes its doors. That would he the greatest tragedy that could happen.” Carrboro Mayor R. B Todd delivered a brief welcome to the group He paid warm compli ments to Mr. Stokes’ talk, and added, “We have a good school, a good faculty, a good PTA, and a good school hoard. It is a good school, and we’re proud of it.” The association heard a report from its executive committee in I which the following action was ; recorded: 1.

Flossy Delivers Chapel Hill A Wet Taste of Her Temper Tropical storm Flossy, leaving I her hurricane force winds behind] her in Florida, gave Chapel Hill; a taste of her temper as she! cruised up the North Carolina coastline this week. Flossy was felt in this area,] but compared to her big sister! Hazel, who screamed into® Chapel Hill in October, 1954,! Flossy was just another wet baby. Hazel struck with feminine fury on October 15 two years ago, toppling trees and disrupting tel ephone and power service throughout this ara. About all that the latest storm left was a record of heavier than usual rainfall. Max Saunders, superintendent at the University filter pTapt, reported that nearly two and a half inches of rain fell between 8 o'clock Wednesday morning and 8 o’clock Thursday morning. Mr. Saunders said the rain showed up on his measuring equipment for the first time on Tuesday morning. The 24-hour period ending at 8 a m. had seen .57 inches fall. In the next 24 hours, another .46 inches hit Chapel Hill. Then it really start ed to rain. From 8 o’clock Wednesday morning to 1 o’clock Wednesday afternoon, the rain reached 1.321 inches. Another .53 inches fell] between 1 p.m. and 7 p.m., ami 56 inches came down between 7 p.m. and 8 o’clock Thursday morning. That made a total of 2.41 inches for the 24-hour period. Some winds accompanied Flos sy's heavy rainfall, but the strongest gusts in this area reached only 45 miles per hour, and no damage was reported. Grey Culbreth, director of util ities for the University, said l the heavy rainfall had caused a break in a new water line run ning from Greenwood to Ridge field, hut the trouble had been quickly corrected. The rain washed away the earth under the pipe, and the extra strain produced the break. “Water is an old proverbial enemy of telephone lines,” Mr. Culbreth told the Weekly, “and we had our usual share of trouble on that score. I “The rain will give us extra trouble with our telephone lines after an extended dry season, ! because the insulation on the llines dries out and cracks. When it rains, the insulation acts like u sponge and draws the water in, and we go out and start patching. Sometimes squirrels will cut holes in cables, and we Nathans Rack From Wrightsville Reach l)r. and Mrs. S. A. Nathan have returned to Chapel Hill after spending the summer in their summer home at Wrights ville Beach.
