The long contemplated up

project in Farmville is under
way and a $4,000 town council
appropriation will provide more
services than originally planned.
The project extends for ap-
proximately 1900 feet between
Vaughan street and Cedar ave-

inch water line. curb and gut
tiers, grade leveling, a six-inch
stone base and street surfacing
with double surface treatment

While Street Department
Worken are on the project, a
fire hydrant will be placed mid
way between the two extremes
of the project, on the Bowman
property, according to Town
Manager E. L. Quisenberry.
Fire Protection
A second new fire hydrant will
be tied into the line but placed
on Orchard street, the next
block north of Second. The only
hydrant now serving the area is
at the Vaughan and Orchard
street junction at the extreme
western edge of the project.
THE two additional hydrants
will improve fire protection po-
tential for the entire area ire
mendously,' the town manager

The new water line, replacing
the existing one of smalled size.

Man Gets Year
In Ad Fake

Joseph H. Ross, As, was SEN
fenced to one year in Jail in
Municipal Court yesterday for
selling ads in a newspaper that
never existed.
The sentence was imposed by
Judge Randolph C. Richardson,
who found Ross, of the 140O
block of Rhode Island avenue
NV, guilty of eight false pre-
tense charges.
Ross, the judge was told, sold
more than 200 ads over the
past year and one-half in the
Washington area for a news
paper called the Washington
Area Jewish News.
The deception came to light,
according to Robert B. Norris,
assistant United States attor-
ney, when an alert salesman
began to doubt there was such
a paper.
The salesman, unable to To-
cate copy of the newspaper
he was soliciting ads for, took
his doubts to the police.
Ross, in court yesterday, ad-
mitted about 40 or so of the
sales. He said he planned to
put out the newspaper but
never was able to get together
enough money.
