The plaintiff, Mrs. H. H. Bass of Oakwood drive, in the allowed amendment, in the suit against John S. Coman and Bennette Faulkner, charged the defend ants “abandoned the project... after obtaining the money.” She claimed the work in the fall-out shelter was so unsatisfactory and water leaking into the shel ter was such a problem she had to employ another firm to re-do the work at great expense. An apartment project with plans for a community fallout shelter, which ran into zoning problems, met a quiet death jn the Superior Court. The court dismissed both suits and coun ter-suits between. Masterbilt Homes, Inc., Mr. and Mrs. T. R. Harward and the „ Board of Aldermen of Chapel Hill. Master-! bilt had proposed to build apart-1 ments on property optioned to it by the Harwards, but was un able to obtain a special use per- i mit and zoning change required. Masterbilt later went into re ceivership and Tuesday’s ruling dismissed1' its action against the ! town and terminated options and agreements it had with the Har wards. i Divorces were granted in three j uncontested cases: Tilley Marie Horner Lipscomb from Richard David Lipscomb, Nellie Margar et P. Hart from Warren Lee Hart and Cecil M Proctor from' Anna Mary Proctor. A separa tion and child custody agree ment between Sandra Jane and Alfred L. Sorensen was approv ed by the court. / .
