the U. S. Army, Company 546 Truck Unit.
My company gave a beach party and being on duty
l went as cook to the Manati Beach in charge of the mess
truck. After the party was over we placed the remaining
food and equipment in the truck and got ready to 60 back
to Fl. Buchanan. Then | left by bus with a Puertorican
lady with which | was in love. There were no seats vacant
and | sat on the floor next to the lady in my company.
After being As minutes on the bus | heard that Mess Sgt.
M. Ramley, my supervisor and also my buddy, was fight

nened to him. By the time / got to him they were not
fighting and the sergeant told me what had happened, that
some civilian was climbing on the mess truck and renaov-
inc food and bread out Of it. He had told the civilian to
stop it and one of them hit the sergeant with a Coca Cola
bottle in the back. He ran after the civilian bit two otherG

we returned back to the truck where I left the sergeant. I

Estimated costs for building
a new highway range from
$27.3 million to 1894 million.
demonstrating Arlington bou-
levard was estimated to cost
1928 million.
Besides costing less, the re-
port notes that the total COR
ridor capacity" for traffic
through Arlington would be
substantially greater by build
ing a new highway than by
rebuilding Arlington boulevard
with no additional new artery
available.
May Require Hearing
The Highway Department
has not yet decided whether it
will use Arlington boulevard or
build a new highway. If 1t de-
cides to build a new road, a
public hearing would be neces-
Sary on the proposed location.
The four alternates contain

cusSed at a recent meeting of

The highway. whatever loca-

would be an eight-lane, limited
access freeway with a dividing
strip ranging from 8 feet to SO

been designated Route 66) has
been settled from Centreville to

From Route 1913. the highway
would run Az miles parallel to

it would make a gentle curve
to the northeast, crossing Route

From Route 7, four alternate
locations are shown. Two of
them would tie into the pro-
posed Constitution venue
bridge with a spur to Key
Bridge. The other two-the
cheapest routes-would connect
to the proposed Arizona avenue
bridge at Gulf Branch.
Route A Location
Route A would cost from $54 8
