C., THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 14, 1*63 24 PAGES [Orange Pea!ings QUITE A GANG Of FOOT baH buffs from Hillsboro and Chapel Hill—44 according to the latest count—will join the week end throng junketing to Wash ington for the Redskins football game this Sunday. The Orange contingent will leave by charter ed bus about 5 a.m. for Rocky Mount, where they’ll board one of three Tar Heel special frains that will take them to the na tion’s capital. Game ticket and round-trip train fare is a paltry $17 95. THERE WAS NOTHING THE Chapel Hill Fire Department could do about the random hoot ing of the old fire horn all day last Friday. The throaty air blasts sounded off Occasionally when ever the right wires happened to be touched as the intricate re mote control alarm system was being transferred to the new fire station down the block. It’s the same set-up that’s been used since 1927. However, the 15 call fire men no longer depend basically on the horn alarm. It’s used only for notification of major daytime fires, when the call men may not be at home. On all alarms the new automatic telephone system at each call man’s home is sound ed, and 70 per cent of the noti fications are received via this route. A STUDENT OR FACULTY member from Duke this week re turned to the Chapel Hill Police; Department a parking ticket he’d! received on the Carolina campusJ Enclosed with it was a four-verse' poem, composed especially for his situation, explaining that the writer had an official Duke park ing sticker on his car, and that Chapel Hill’s patrolmen should have noted this and not ticketed him. Traffic Clerk Mrs. Newell Cogdell, never having been ap prised of any reciprocal parking agreement between the two insti tutions, whipped off a four-verse ditty of her own. She sent this, along with the unpaid ticket, back to the Dukester, with the poetic suggestion that he come across with a dollar to clear his good and creative literary name.

IT It TRUE THAT THSES IS a reversion clause, on part , of the downtown * Chapel Hill school property, hot it is not true that this wou& be any significant har rier to selling the strategically located 10-acre W. Franklin St. business-zoned tract. The former Cone House property, deeded to the local public schools by the University in 1945 would under the terms of that deed revert to the previous owner (UNC) if the land ceased to be used for pub lic school purposes. But there is a further provision that this re striction can be lifted upon pay ment of $8,000 to the {frevious owner—Which the school board would be quite willing to do, out of its hoped-for $1.25 million plus sale receipts.
