Ben W.

Heineman, chairman of the board of Chicago and North Western Railroad, personally toured the Laramie to Austin section at the request of Sen. Thomas A. McGloon, 37th ward Democratic committeeman. Following: the tour Heineman reported ihat the railroad would not stand the estimated $11,000 cost to repaint the retaining wall, and that from an engineering: standpoint planting: of vines to cover it was out of the question. He added, however, that the railroad would have no objection to a community organization providing the necessary funds, which Sen.

McGloon estimates might be reduced to as little as $2,000 or $2,500 for the project During the course of the tour, according to McGloon, Heineman noticed that the viaducts at the various cross streets were badly in need of work. As a result the railroad will repaint the viaducts within the next two months. Shortly after the $278,000 Lake sL widening and Improvement project was completed last year, the Austin News suggested editorially that the final step In beautifying that section of Lake St. would be to cover the dirt encrusted retaining wall, previously hidden from view by the old ground- level rapid transit trains. Sen.

McGloon at that time brought the matter to the attention of railroad authorities. REALTY BOARD -HONORS BUTLER John F.

Judge Richard Napolitano had earlier ruled that the structure was to be vacated of its last tenant or repaired in line with the current building: code. Goldstein testified that his client had tried to get a permit for the repairs from the city but had been refused due to existence of an attic apart- merit, the only one of the fivt units currently occupied.

Judge Julian Wilamoafel who proceeded Judge Napolitano on the bench in Homing court had ruled that the occupant of the attic apartment could remain but when, he moved the use of the attto unit was to be discontinued. Judge Napolitano upheld this ruling in a hearing hi January but on Feb.
