Tom Boyle of Durham Toast
master Club 1903 won the area
speech contest held in Chapel
Hill last Saturday as a local elimi-
nation in the annual Toastmasters
international Speaking competi-
ton.
Roland Giduz Of the Chapel Hill
Toastmasters Club was named
runner-up and will act as alter
nate to Mr. Boyle in the sub-dis-
trict contest to be held in Ra-
leigh on April 20.
About 80 persons were present
Tor the Saturday afternoon lunch
con program, held in the Caro-
lima Inn. There were two speak
ers competing from each of five
clubs in the area, as winners of
their intra-club contest. Each de-
livered talk of from five to
seven minutes. Judges were nomi-
mated from each club.
President Charles Warren of
the host club was master of
ceremonies for the program, and
the contest was introduced by
ToastmasterS 1t. Gov. Karl LIGHT
mann of Raleigh.
Mr.. Boyle, the winner, spoke
on the topic How to Make Sue
ceSSful Speech without Really
Saying Anything" A member of

special use permit to construct a
28-unit addition to Brookside
Apartments on Hillsboro Street.
Mr.. Cates's request had under
gone a public hearing February
25, at which time the Aldermen
refused to act on the request be-
cause of inadequate plans. Mr..
Gates later submitted new plans
to the Aldermen, who then refer
red the matter to the Planners for
recommendation.
Discussion of the General De-
velopment Plan for the Chapel
Hill Planning Area will continue.
The Planners earlier this month
began discussion of the possibility
of constructing mile-long lake
along BOlin Creek between Dur
ham and Airport Roads. The sus-
gestion hit snags from the out
set. Planners consider the idea
premature. However, real Estate
development proposed or contem-
plated in the area forced early
discussion.
As originally drawn, the lake
would have flooded the site of a
STUNT apartment development
planned by developer Jack Carl
isle on a SIS acre tract between
lower Hillsboro Street and Bolin
Creek.

Housing Authority
To Meet TOMORROW

The Chapel Hill Housing Auth
ority is not sure what it will dis
cuSs at its meeting tomorrow
night, but it will meet, at s in
the Town Hall.
Town Manager Robert Peck
said no agenda had been drawn
up for the meeting, and no par
ticularly pressing matters de-
manded immediate consideration
by the Authority:~ Generally, the
Authority will discuss plans for
low-rent public housing.
The Authority met Wednesday
with two Public Housing Authority
representatives from Atlanta, pro-
ject planner E. H. Simms, and
land adviser Burt Adams.
Mr., Adams gave his opinion
that the Authority need not worry
about finding sites for public houS-
ing, Mr.. Peck said Mr.. Adams
seemed less worried about the
site problem than the Chapel Hill
Authority did.
In general, the two PHA repre-
Sentatives gave the local Auth
Ority answers to questions until
then unanswered. He said $l2, 900
would be made available to the
Chapel Hill Authority as prelim-
mary planning funds as soon as
the AuthOrity's workable program
had been approved in Atlanta.

expanding maintenance n d operation requirements. All users of state airport lands and facilities combined, excluding the International airports at Anchorage and Fairbanks, have b zen paying approximately $10,000 per year in rents and fees. The cost of maintenance and operation of the same air ports has been several hundred thousand dollars per year. This figure does not include h e amounts budgeted for construc- tion of new airports or inn provements to existing ones. A leasing policy more realistical- ly correlated to costs is h e unacceptable result, according to Roguszka.
 The intent of the Division of Aviation, according to Rogusz- ka, is to arrive at a reasonable division of responsibility of costs which would reflect an acceptable ratio of benefits to various groups and advance and promote the cause of civil aviation in Alaska.

ARMY FILES FOR WITHDRAWAL OF EKLUTNA TRACT

United States Army, Alaska has filed for withdrawal on a small tract of land at the head of Eklutna Glacier. Army off cials said the site is required for training operations and will be utilized by small unit opera tional exercises during noun tain and glacier training.
 The area selected contains 68 acres which is the minimum for this type training operation.
 The withdrawal filed Decem- Der l2, 1862, is in accord with the policy of the Commander in-Chief, Alaska, to withdraw only land actually required to successfully perform the mili- tary mission in Alaska.
