The bus was taken about 8:30 p.m. The marines drove it through Beaufort and Morehead City, hit ting a light pole on 4th at. in More head City on their way through. They parked ft behind Bryan's gro cery. Employees of the grocery called highway patrolman and Morehead City police, who in turn called deputy sheriff Hugh Salter. Salter and highway patrolman W. E. Pickard took up the chase. Sal ter reports that he went out to the grocery store but the marines took off in the bus again, ending up this time behind the Wagon Wheel, located almost opposite the Morehead City race track.

Leary estate that their property be rezoned for business. The hearing will be at 7:30 p.m. October 23 in the town hall. The hearing was requested by Bernard Leary and William Chalk who represented the heirs of the estate. Chalk said that he has a purchaser for the property if it can be rezoned for business. The land is located on the north side of Arendell street between 17th and 18th streets. Chalk reported that the board of adjustment had refused to rezone the property. He said that Harvey Hamilton, jr., chairman of the board, had told him that the heirs could appeal to the town commis sioners. The board of commis sioners decided that it would be best to hold a public hearing on the matter. Order New Lights The commissioners ordered the purchase of three new traffic lights to replace those already in use. The new lights will have re flectors which will prevent the sun's rays from shining through the light. The sunlight now con fuses motorists approaching the lights. The new lights will cost $137 each. The commissioners adopted an ordinance to force property own ers to clean up vacant lots. The ordinance provides that grass be kept to a maximum height of eight inchcs. If the grass exceeds that height, the owners will be given five days in which to cut it. After five days, the town will clean the lots at the owners' ex- j pense. The cost of the work will I constitute a lien on the property. j The ordinance will go into effect ten days after it was adopted. Parking Banned The commissioners adopted an other ordinance banning parking on certain side streets. Parking will be banned on the west side | of 5th from Evans to Bridges, the west side of 9th from Shepard to Bridges and the west side of 4th from Evans to Bridges. The ban will be effective as soon as signs are obtained and posted. A contract for painting the town hall was awarded to Steve Rolberts. j Robert's bid of $1,190 was the low est one submitted. Milton Piner offered to perform the job for $2,280. No other bids were re ceived. The commissioners asked the town attorney to draw up an ordi nance banning any type of slaugh ter house within the corporate limits of the town. The action came after it was learned that a New Bern chicken dealer hoped to open a slaughter house at 12th and Evans. J.^V. (Hooty) Waters, street su perintendent, asked the commis sioners to replace two six-year-old trucks used by his department. He said that both trucks are worn out. He asked that they be traded for two 1949 model trucks. Commissioner D. G. Bell suggest ed that the board investigate the cost of two new trucks. Mayor George W. Dill, jr., said that he believed it would be wiser to pur chase new trucks which would not have to be replaced in a few years. The board decided to ask for bids on two new trucks. If the cost of such trucks is too high, then the town will buy used trucks. Walter Freeman asked for an casement to place a spur railroad track in the west alley of the block on which he is erecting a new wholesale grocery house. The board granted the easement tor the track which is already in place. Freeman also asked permission to erect a loading dock on the west side of the new building. Trucks will back over the sidewalk to un load at the dock. Freeman offered to reinforce the sidewalk so that it will take the weight of the trucks. The commissioners decided to investigate and make a decision at the next meeting. Mr. Fluhart of Harkers Island offered to collect $30,000 in de linquent personal property taxes. Fluhart said that he would collect the taxes for a 20 per cent com mission. The board instructed him to submit a written contract which it will either accept or reject. Present at the meeting were Mayor Dill, town clerk John Lash ley, and commissioners Mr. Mills, D. G. Bell and W. L. Derrickson.

Tcm p> and vended by diatrict method' clerk H. C. .lohnaan and statistical clcrk G. D. Stewart, who has juris diction over the Beaufort Western Union office. Walker says that the Beaufort chamber of commerce has pointed out to Temple that the present hours of service of the Beaufort Western Union office are not con ducive to maximum revenue dur ing the majority of the year. The chamber of commerce man ager goes on to say that his or ganization grants that during the three months cited in the applica tion that operating expenses might have exceeded revenue. Accord ing to their figures, revenue ex ceeded expenses by $57 in January. In February, expenses were $25 over revenue, and in March, ex penses were $5 over revenue. Yet in these figures. Walker continues, no portion of revenue on incom ing messages was credited to the Beaufort office. Walker also says that the company has failed to con sider that the three months cited are the slackest three in the year. It is the' chamber of commerce contention, according to Walker, that Western Union, under its present hours of operation, is not serving the shrimpers, fishermen, crab, oyster and clam dealers or the thousand or more menhaden fishermen who through choice, custom and necessary must wire money to their families in distant cities. Dr. W. L. Woodard is chairman of the utilities commission of the Beaufort chamber of commerce and anyone having ideas, pro or con, is invited, even urged, to con tact him concerning this question. Western Union Officials in the Beaufort office, had no comment on the matter.
