and it will be recalled that all
these tests were very favorable.
Now that the governor has
given the department OF natural
resources the green light, the
real estate division of the wild
life department will take over
and begin Immediately the task
cf securing the necessary land
options.
Since the land acquisition can
be initiated with administration
approval it was recommended
by Director Eagon that the funds
appropriated be utilized and that
any funds remaining unencum-
bered at the end of the current
fiscal year be re-appropriated.
Unlike most of the other
reservoir sites authorized for
study by the 102nd General AS
sembly, the Noble county lake
project was not inspired solely
by recreational interests. On the
contrary, Director Eagon pointed
out to Gov. Disable that it arose
from a recognition that the area
concerned is nearly at maximum
development possible with the
available developed water supply
in the watershed. The present
use from the existing Caldwell
reservoir is about at maximum
available.
Unlike other projects, too, was
the fact that the division of water
was encouraged to select the
most suitable site in the area.
The Wolf Creek site, only a
half mile above the village of
Belle Valley, is an unusually
excellent one from the point OF
view of topography. The valley
floor is relatively flat and the
surrounding hills are steep. The
effect is to maximize the volume
OF storage in relation to surface
acreage.
An estimated yield of 100000
gallons per day is expected from
this reservoir of only 220 sur
face acres. Additionally, some
measure Of protection would be
afforded to an area which suffers
frequent flood damage.
Wolf Creek is a tributary OF
Duck Creek, which empties into
the Ohio River a short distance
above Marietta. 1t is the first
basin east of the eastern boun-
dairy of the Muskingum basir
and the Muskingum Watershed
Conservancy district.
Another factor considered by
the governor was the compare
tive little development in the
area concerned
The State of Ohio presently
cwns only 3.77 acres of land IL
Noble county, where the depart
ment of highways is located
The population of the count,
has declined in the past 80 year
from more than $4,000 to
present total of little more thar
1000. Water supply is mos
important factor in encouraging
new development and improv
ing the local economy, the gov
ernor was told.
The purpose of the new lax
for Noble county would be waite
supply, flood control and recrea
ton, with priority to be in tn
order stated.

VILLAGE Council
Continued from page one
Barn Creates Question

Barn creates question
Sewell Kirkbride, of East
street, presented council with a
problem that appeared rather
simple and unimportant at first,
yet after discussing the matter
a length, it became quite in
volved and rather technical.
1t appears that Kirkbride
secured a lot, located on the
extreme east end of Spruce
street, from Edw L. Merry for
the purpose of moving a build
ing to the site. Strangely, as it
may seem, an old barn whose
ownership remains unknown,
stands in the path creating a
problem for Kirkbride in his
moving plans.
The question is, who owns the
old dilapidated structure? 1t is
located on what is now Spruce
street, but at one time it is
believed to have been the right
of-way or property of the now
defunct 'B-Z" railroad.
Council was rather reluctant
to act on the matter until the
village solicitor has been con
suited on the legal aspect of the
prevailing situation.
One easy out exists let
the Caldwell volunteer fire de-
partment use it as an experiment
for testing its fire fighting equip
ment.
Council assured Kirkbride and
EWell Smith, who accompanied
the former to the meeting, that
a decision would be Forthcoming
Immediately.
Switch Parking Meters
A switch in the location of a
number of parking meters was
authorized by council. The num-
Der of meters that it will require
to complete that section OF
Spruce street, between West and
Cumberland, will be moved
from North street, beyond Barn
hart's Appliances.
Relocating the meters will be
completed this week. Angle

Able. the 7-pound Rhesus

The Army announced that
the little creature, which COM
pleted q l.500-mile trip through
space in the nose cone Of a

early today while undergoing

The operation was performed
at the United States Army Med

The electrode had been Inn
planted in Able in order to
derive bio-medical information
about the flight last Thursday.
The Army said that the death
was caused by rapid and con-
vulsive movements of the heart
following the administration Of
light surgical anethesia."
It emphasized that the cause
Of death was unrelated" to

An Army spokesman said
that on her arrival at Fort

electrode had been implanted
in Able's skin on her right side.
The operation was decided upon
"in order to prevent the spread"
of the infection and to ease
any discomfort the animal
might be enduring, the spokes-
man added.
Some Of the electrodes orig
inally placed under Able's skin
had been successfully removed
at an earlier time, an ofiicial
Of the National Aeronautics

There was no indication
that the animal would not be

The anesthesia was admins

the animal suddenly developed
