the original right of way reserved by
the Birmingham Realty company when
the subdivision was opened.
When the petition of the company
for the granting of a franchise to the
Norwood Street Car company. a sub
sidiary of the realty corporation, comes
up for action at Tuesdays meeting Of
the commission, all members of the
board will support the Twenty eighth
street route, it was indicated yester-
day.
The route to be outlined by the city
will start at the end of the present
Norwood car line on Thirty-sixth street.
will run on Finson street for a block
and half. then on Norwood boulevard
to Twenty-eighth street and Fifteenth
avenue, north, and then turning south
on Twenty eighth street into Twelfth
avenue, north, one block east of the
viaduct.
Citizens of Norwood appeared before
the city commission last Tuesday, pro-
testing against granting of fran
chise for line running on Thirty first
street, claiming that such would be a
violation of the agreement made by the
company with property purchasers re-
garding transportation.
Members of the city board visited
the neighborhood Thursday morning.

PLANS COMPLETED
FOR LEEDS HIGHWAY
Road From Vincent Will Mean
Saving of Many Miles for
Motorists

Plans have been completed for the
construction of a new road from Vim
cent to Leeds. which will mean the
saving OF many miles to motorists as
wen as a convenience to the people in
that vicinity. This new road will mean
more for the development of Jeffer-
son and Shelby counties than any road
development which has been made
since the days of the Civil war, ac-
cording to H. NJ. Judge of Leeds.
This plan originated about a year
ago with Mr.. Judge, formerly repre-
sentative of Shelby county. He en-
listed the aid of the citizens of Durant.
Vandiver. Sterrette. Calcis and Vim
cent In this movement. j. F. McGraw
OF Vincent was made chairman of the
general committee. A barbecue was
held and short talks were made by
Frank Willis Barnett of The Age-Her-
ald and Mr.. Judge, who outlined plans
for this highway. The contract to build
the road has been awarded to Taylor
Construction company.
Like all other great projects, many
ana seemingly impossible things would
turn UP, and often it looked as though
the road would be failure" said Mr..
Judge. However, pluck and not luck
brought home the bacon.
Well on Way to Success
Every dollar of the warrants has
been placed and a bond made by Mr..
Taylor for the completion of the road
has been delivered to the court.
