Radial Road
Question Is
Raised Again
State Is Insisting
On Loop Connector
The ghost of Bayberry Drive
undertook a fresh haunting of
the Planning Board last night.
The drive, also known as the
Morgan Creek Radial Road and
a hotly disputed feature of the
Chapel Hill-Carrboro Major Thor
oughfare Plan, is delaying ap
proval of the Plan by the State
Highway Department. The De
partment insists that such a road
is essential to connect a project
ed Outer Loop with 15-501 By
pass. Residents of the Morgan
Creek area have opposed the
road, which would cut through the
exclusive residential district, brid
ging Morgan Creek and the Hunt
Arboretum at some point.
Planning Board member C.
Whid Powell last night urged the
Board to seek approval of the
Plan, with inclusion of the Radial
Road if necessary, at the earli
est possible time.
“I hate to think of the time
we’ve logged on the Thorough
fare Plan. We’ve been working
on it for the past two and-a-half
years, and it still isn’t approved.
Until it is, we can’t build any
thing. The main question is
Bayberry Drive. We ought to
do something about it. I’m fed
up with it; we should take any
action we can to get something
done.”
The Thoroughfare Plan was ap
proved by Chapel Hill and Carr
boro Town Boards last spring,
after addition of a link connect
ing Pleasant Drive-and Umstead
Drive to the top-priority list of
projects. Before the Plan is op
erative, however, it must have

A man who believes every
thing he reads in print—“lf you
see it in the Sun, it’s so" and
and all that—went to an eye
doctor.
After an examination, the
oculist put some drops in the
man’ eyes, loaned him a pair of
dark glasses, and told him he
wouldn't be able to read any
thing for a few hours, at least.
No sooner had he arrived
home than the evening paper
was delivered. He asked his wife
to read him the news on the
front page.
His wife, in a joking mood,
read aloud the most spurious
and sensational headlines—Atom
ic war in Europe; volcanic erup
tions in South Carolina; a neigh
bor down the street arrested for
bigamy and flung into the local
Bastille; the marriage of a
homely old maid to a wealthy
widower; four United States
Senators cited for speeding and
resisting arrest; little men in
flying saucers landing at Ra
leigh - Durham Airport; discov
ery of goM, oil and uranium in
Orange Coixity. She made up
the stories as she went along.
Hie man listened quietly and
with obvious relish, and gulli
bility.
The moral: He couldn’t read
what he believed in the news
papers.

INSPECTION—These are members of the offi
cial Town inspection party which went over the new
Chapel Hill fire station with a fine-toothed comb yes
terday afternoon prior to letting the Fire Department
move into its new quarters. Fire Chief James Stewart
Fire Station
Is Approved
By Aldermen
The Board of Aldermen inspect
i-wd die hew Chapel Hiil fire sta
tion yesterday afternoon. The
Aldermen were pleased and ac
cepted the building from archi
tect Donald Stewart but not
without reservations.
The Fire Department did not
begin to move to the new station
today, as originally planned.
Chief James Stewart said he
would probably start the move
tomorrow, with trucks and other
major equipment to take up resi
dence in the new building Fri
day.
The Aldermen’s reservations
were minor: a few floor tiles
have to be replaced, work must
be done on some sections of rub
ber baseboard, the floor of the
exterior porch must be relaid,
workman-inflicted scars on the
paneled walls of the Chief's of
fice must be removed, and the
building must get a general
cleanup. The Town must also
make its final plumbing and
electrical inspection.
The Aldermen toured the two
floors of the building for about
an hour with Architect Stewart
and Chief Stewart. Alderman
Roland Giduz said he personally
was “not impressed” by folding
panel doors on closets, and Ald
erman Mrs. Harold Walters sug
gested that blinds be installed in
the fire station’s upstairs rooms,
particularly in the dormitory, be
cause residents of the area can
see directly into the windows.
Otherwise, she said, the Chapel
Hill Fire Department was going
to have to be the best-behaved in
the State. The Aldermen had
no major criticisms.
The only permanent installation
in the building that is not new is
the firemen’s floor-to-floor slide
pole, which was installed in the
old fire station in 1939 and was
moved to the new building a
couple of months ago. The build
ing is of concrete and steel, but
provision has been made for in
stallation of a second slide pole
in the future if necessary.
‘Trustees Should Have Responsibility’ —Moody

to convince the University faculty

Although the “discussion” led

“I think the issue is now being

said in a preliminary statement.
He said also that he wished to
clarify his position on the law.
“I did not support the law in any

“I have been written many of

Mr. Moody then enumerated
the factors he thought supported
the constitutionality of the law:
that the university is not an "in

agent of the State; that this be

First Flag Is Raised
In Chest Campaign
Business
Division
Is Ahead
The first of five Community
Chest flags has been raised on
the corner of Franklin and Col
umbia Streets, indicating that
one fifth of this year's $43,000
Chest goal has been collected.
The Chapel Hill-Carrboro Com
munity Chest drive began last
week.
Most of the initial return re
sulted from an advance letter
sent recently to a carefully
screened list of potential major
donors. The letter brought in
about $4,750, almost equally from
the Health Affairs, Residential,
and main University campus di
visions.
Substantial contributions were
received from the Reynolds Stu
dent Investment Fund at the
UNC School of Business Admini
stration, which contributed half
of the year’s income from its
investments; and from Chem
strand, which matched the con
tributions of its Chapel Hill em
ployees.
Individual Chest solicitors have
not yet—reported collections.
Chest chairman Sandy MacClam
roch said reports from solicitors
were expected at tie end of this
week.
Quotas, collections as of Nov.
5, and percentages collected in
the five Chest divisions:
Health affairs: $7,500 quota;
$1,460 collected: 19 per cent.
Residential, $15,500 quota; sl,-
880.50 collected; 12 per cent.
Main campus, SB,OOO quota;
$2,005.22 collected; 25 per cent.
Business, $12,000 quota; $3,330
collected; 28 per cent.
Miscellaneous, SB.IO collected.
Totals, $43,000 quota; $8,683.82
collected; 20 per cent.
A flag will be added to the
Chest’s flagpole for each 20 per
cent of tlie goal collected. The
first four flags will each bear
a C, the theme of this year's
drive being four C's; Chapel Hill-
Carrboro Community Chest. Not
until the goal is reached will the
fifth flag be revealed.
The Community Chest supports

ONE GOING UP—George Barclay prepares to
hoist the first flag in this year’s Community Chest
drive. The motif of this year’s drive is the Four C’s,
signifying the Chapel Hill-Carrboro Community
Chest. Each flag hoisted at Franklin and Columbia
Streets will represent 20 per cent of the goal. Only
after the goal has been reached will be the public
learn what is on the fifth flag.
Fee Solicitations
Halted In Schools
School Superintendent Howard
Thompson told the Chapel Hill
School Board Monday that he had
instructed all Chapel Hill school
principals to stop soliciting
money from students for school
workbooks.
Dr. Thompson, at the Board’s
meeting Monday night, said he
had told the principals tha,t pur
chase of workbooks would be with
fee money from now on. Fees
are set by the State. Workbooks
could be purchased with "supply”
money, he said, but not if the
money were solicited from among
students at so much per student
over and above state fees.
He presented to the Board an
exact accounting of what fees
and other charges were being
paid in the schools at the mo
ment. These fees and charges, in
the following outline, are uniform
throughout the school system.
