dents opposing the development Of
the 4-acre site for Clarke Terrace
which is located directly east of
Floral Heights in an area just out
side the Southwestern rim of the
city limits.
The sheriff cautioned the resi-
dents to be patient and to avoid
any action which might cause ra-
cial disturbances and to give Of
ficials studying the controversial
issue time to do so if they can solve
this situation.
