VOL. 72, NO. 30 HIUJSS6R0U6H AND CHAPEL HILL N C.t THURSDAY JULY 23, 1964 ~ 24 PAGES _:_._l_*_ • ' ’ CHAPEL HILL'S WONDERFUL old original T-tModel fire truck is ' seeing glory in its golden anni versary year that it would never have comprehended in its com paratively brief career of regular use here. The brightly refurbish ed vehicle is taken regularly on a round of parades and public appearances throughout the re gion in behalf of the junior fire marshal program. Next week it’s to be an attraction in the Pitts tooro Firemen’s Day parade; on August 12 Chase City, Va., wants It in the Firemen’s Day parade: there, and on Aug. 17 it’ll be tak- j en to Morehead City for the do ings at the annual N. C. Fire men’s Assn, convention. THE BIG EXCAVATION NOW under way at the busy corner of Hillsboro and E. Rosemary Street in Chapel Hill is a continuation _ of the laying of the telephone and "“’"utility ~condultsl that .Wilt" softiT ring the town and campus. Utili ties officials insist that they wait ed till now to start the work since, believe it or not, there are fewer people in Chapel Hill and at UNC now than at any other season. The telephone lines, and eventually all utility lines, will in due time be run through the six four-inch conduits. ALSO IN THE REALM OF utility alterations, work is prog ressing well oni the moving of The Gas Company’s pressure re ducing station from its location facing Estes Drive on E. • Frank lin St. Valves are being install ], ed at the new site 150 yards back from the highway, and the little brick building that’s housed’the -/station will soon he torn down so the! the new Richards Road can be laid to form a direct right- i angle four - way intersection: crossing E. Franklin into Estes Drive. Cost of moving the instal lation, about $22,000, is being borne by the utility firm and the | Town. ADGER WILSON, CHAPEL Hill insurance underwriter (offi cially designated as a “C.P.C.U.”), is the town’s leading sailing buff, and will be in forefront of the competition this coming Sunday off Satterwhite Point at Kerr Lake for the Carolina Sailing Club’s annual regatta. hakdiNuer op the coin ing season comes in the mail this week in the form of the Official 1964 Collegiate Football Guide. Here’s whaU4hi$ package of print ed and predicted wisdom has to say in a terse paragraph about the Tar Heels’ grid prospects: . . ACCteaips will'be hard put to keep North Carolina out of the throne room, with the return of halfback Ken Willard and center Chris Hamburger, both all-conefr: ence choices Tast year. And Wil lard, voted the Gator Bowl’s j (MiV|P, will again have fullback Eld die Kesler to lead his charge. Kesler, who like Willard weighs j 1220 pounds, is a superb blocker and ball carrier.

ANOTHER TOME OF INTEL ligence received in the newspa per mailbox this past week is the "" pamphlet of 1964 Railroad Infor mation published by the Associa tion of Southeastern Railroads. For the life of us we can’t imag ine how this booklet could be jsf any consistent use to a yard-bird reporter. But in an effort to cap italize on the opportunity this in formation is passed on fro: 4»ages: Of every railroad-revevnue dollar in the country 47.4c goes to labor,. 20.1c for fuel, 14.8c for expenses, and 8.4c for new' "operating income. . ^ before commissioners —See story, Page Two • a/ get if-af ~w tf— S I'HIS PROVES HE’S\JECOQK-Jhe unidenti fied little fellow with the big hat is pimply wearing the standard required head gear for iall cooks at the national BcfySwltJ Jamboree in Valley Forg -this week.
