(SpeciaD-I would like to state
to the readers of The Imperial
Valley Press that I am in no
way responsible for the editor

paper. I allow them free rein
as to their opinion, so long as
it is within the bounds of good

want it distinctly understood
that their policy may be in di-

Their editorials may be put
in purely for humor, or just
to fill space. Every paper must

are not always to be taken SER

Imperial Highway
Gets Right OF Way

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 8. U.P)-
Construction of a. high speed high
way from Ell Segundo to Imperial
Valley at Ell Centre was given i'm
petus today by announcement of
state officials that they would deed
100-foot right of way through the
state hospital grounds at Norwalk.
DR.. j. M. Toner, director of state
institutions, informed County Sup
ervisor John R. Quinn, the state
would be willing to have the high
way, part of the major traffic plan,
cross the hospital grounds. Quinn
said the county would proceed with
the paving with money derived
frim its share of state gasoline tax
receipts.

Information contained in the

The Press that the state had agreed
to the right of way through the
state hospital.
Efforts to obtain permission to
build the highway through the

Pender's, one Of the leading
chain groceries in this section
of the country, is to open a store
about June 10 in the eastern half
of the space which was vacated
by the Model Market last Sat

This property has been leased
to Pender's by the owners, the
heirs of Mrs. Samuel Pickard.
The western half of the space
that was used by the Model Mar
ket belongs to the Durham Pub

crates an ice plant in the rear.
When Pender's comes there

Vote for Eubanks
Al Editorial

Interest has been so concen-
trated upon the contests for Gov
ernor and United States Senator
that people in North Carolina
have not gTven much thought to
the candidates for county Of
fees. Yet it is of great impor-
tance to every citizen that the
government of his county be con-
Quoted honestly and efficiently.
One Of the candidates for the
board of Orange county commits
Sioners is Robert A. Eubanks Of
/ Chapel Hill, and we urge every
! body entitled to vote in the Dem
Ocratlc primary tomorrow to sup
+. port him. He has had business
experience and he is man of
sound judgment: and one thing
that makes him particularly de-
serving of election is that he is a
friend of education and has al
ways displayed keen and intel
| ligent interest in the schools.
There are three commissioners
to be elected, and, for the other
two, we commend w. ?. Berry
and J. H. Hammer. They have
already served on the board
Evidence that they have served
we'll is the fact that the county'S
! financial affairs are in good
shape and that its bonds rank
high, in the esteem of investors,
compared with the bonds of most
other counties in the state. These
| two and Mr.. Eubanks can be
trusted to conduct the county'S $
business conscientiously and
prudently.
S. w. Andrews is a candidate
for reelection to the office of
register of deeds. We intend to
vote for him and we advise 9TH
ers to do likewise.
An Orange county man ap-
pears on the state ballot: A. H.
Graham, for Lieutenant Govern
or. We take it for granted that
| Chapel Hill and the rest of the
county will go overwhelmingly
| for him.

The independence of Gattis

When this campaign began |
did not have any special prefer
ence for either candidate in the
contest for the place Of represen-
tative in the legislature from Or
ange county.
When reflect upon two things
that have happened in the last
few weeks, however, | feel called
upon to commend the independ-
ence of Samuel M. Gattis.
First, he stood up in the meet
ing of the American Legion post
here and voted against the i'm
mediate payment Of the SOL
diers' bonus. The majority Of
the Legionnaires in Chapel Hill,
and throughout the state, voted
for immediate payment. A can
didate for Office who expresses
an opinion contrary to the wish
es of the politically powerful
American Legion is displaying
spirit.
Second, Mr.. Gattis has now
written a letter, in which he de-
clines to kowtow to the organ
ized merchants of North Caro-
lima. This letter has been given
to us by a Chapel Hill merchant
who questioned the two candi-
dates.
"These six questions" writes
Mr.. Gattis, "are designed to
pledge candidates more than half
a year in advance as to their
stand upon the taxation question.

Chapel Hill Chaf

Roulhac Hamilton had what
may properly be called a timely
accident last Friday morning.
He had set out in his Ford two
or three weeks before, and had
travelled through South Caro-
lima, Georgia, Alabama, Miss
issippi and Louisiana, to a place
$50 miles west of New Orleans;
and he had come back home; and
throughout the journey of more
than 500 miles his car had be-
haved perfectly. 1t was not un-
til he got back to Chapel Hill and
was rolling along the broad high
way back of the University Iii
brary that he had any trouble
and all the trouble he had then
was a call to Bruce Strowd's 5 ga
rage.
Mr.. Hamilton's trip was for
the purpose of getting material
for the Southern Historical Col
lection in the library here-old
letters and diaries and periodi-
Gals, and old records of various
sorts. He went to city homes
and village homes and to planta-
tions where portlcoed houses
were still occupied by the descen-
dants of the owners of ante-bel-
lum days. Every day or so he
made shipments back to Chapel
Hill by mail and express, and
when he got home his car was
loaded with boxes and bundles
and bulky envelopes.
There is a wealth of historical
material in Southern homes; in
some it is in desks and bureau
drawers and on library shelves,
in others it is in attics and out
buildings. Valuable papers have
often been destroyed by fire or
have been lost or scattered be-
cause a younger generation
failed to realize their value.
Many of the owners are glad to
give them to the University

WATER BACKS UP
BEHIND THE NEW
UNIVERSITY DAM
Arrangements Are Being Made
To Get a Motor Launch for
Patrol Service on Lake
DAM Is NEARLY FINISHED

The water has begun to back
up behind the University's new
dam on Morgan creek to the
west of the village. SO far it
has come only a little way out
of the creek bed, and the in
crease in the flooded area is slow:
because of the lack of rainfall.
But it creeps steadily up the
slopes of the fields. Before long
it will make a pond, and in few
weeks, with normal rainfall, it
will make a lake. The level has
been rising a foot a day, but of
course the rate of rise will be less
as the water spreads out.
Already the University has
entered into negotiations for the
purchase of motor launch
which will be used for patrol. 1t
must be of very light draught,
of the outboard motor type, so
that it may come right up to the
edges of the lake. And there will
be two small rowboats. Thus, in
the future, when Business Man
ager Charles T. Woollen lists the
assets of the University, he will
have to set down the item, zone
fleet, consisting Of three vessels"
The dam has risen to its final
height except for one section,
and this has ten feet more to go.
The entire job is expected to be
complete by the end of June.
The valves for the control of
the water will be in place in a
few days, and then the pumps
will be transferred from their
present location on the creek to
the new pump house on the low
er side of the dam.

you so desire, you can take the

The Chapel Hill weekly., 1932-06-03

There is one thing about the
state ballot that may puzzle some
of the voters in the Democratic
primary tomorrow. That is, the
repetition of the names of the
candidates for United States
Senator.
The reason for this repetition
is that a man must be chosen
for the remainder of the unex-
pired term of the late Senator
Overman lending next March)
and also for the regular 6-year
term beginning next March and
ending in 1889.
Be careful to vote in both the
Senatorial sections on the ballot.
If, for example, Morrison is your
choice, put a crossmark in the
square before his name for the
short term and again before his
name for the long term.
Often citizens, even those who
are sure of themselves in other
situations, go to the polls in some
confusion of mind about the

HEAVY VOTE is EXPECTED

TomOrrOw-Saturday, June A,
is the day when the Demo-
Gratis of North Carolina go to
the polls to select their candi-
dates to represent the party in
the election in November. Since
it is regarded as certain that
the Democrats will sweep the
state this year, the real fight is
not against the Republicans but
within the Democratic party.
1t has been spirited fight.
For several weeks the Demo-
Gratis have been raging back and
forth through the state and
prOclaiming each others dis
qualifications. Feeling runs high,
the fires of rivalry have been
fed until they have reached a
white heat; and this is taken
to mean that there will be a
heavy vote cast in the primary.
