on the west side of Oxford pi.,
on the west, from an "AA" to an
"A" district to permit the erection
of 30 one-family houses. Applica-tjon
for the change was made by
Alexander Verity, a builder.
When the matter was called for
a hearing, no one appeared in op-position.
Randolph C. Earickson,
spoke in favor of the change, he
commended Mr. Verity for the type
oi houses he has built in the past
and for the care he exercised, in
disposing of his holdings.

Some weeks aj;o the Mer-chants'
Council took (he mutter
of changing the store limn'* un-der
advisement. Speakers con-tend
that as most people have
Saturday off, and many spend
the week-ends out of town, il
would lie wise to keep open
Thursday nights and close Sat-urday
evenings. When the mat-ter
was put to a vole. the~plan~
was carried. However, it was
decided to wait until the week,
of July 4 to put it into opera-tion.
Package stores, pharmacies
and restaurants will continue
their present store hours.
