The. bank's present downtown office at 3rd and Streets has been purchased by the agency and is scheduled for demolition as part of the Central City project. Driver said the building will cost over $3 million, excluding land costs, and said his firm will build it. Construction is scheduled to begin within six months, with a maximum of 15 months allowed for completion.

The building will have some 110,000 square feet of floor space, with the first two floors two stories high to accommodate the bank. I By JOE BAKER tun-Ttltoram Business Editor A proposal to build a 12-story office building in downtown San Bernardino, tentatively accepted by the San Bernardino Redevelopment Agency two weeks ago, was approved by agency directors yesterday. The offer was submitted by C. W. Driver, a 51-year-old Los Angeles construction firm, and Ted D.

Eichel-berger, San Bernardino real estate broker and developer. The building will be built on the southwest corner of 3rd and streets, just east of the city's proposed 5-story parking garage and new city hall, in the Central City redevelopment project area; Originally Arrowhead Corp. of San Bernardino had planned to build a 12-story building on the site. But Ted R. Nicolay, a principal in the Arrowhead project, withdrew the offer on grounds that the price of land Arrowhead wanted to buy for parking exceeded stipulated limits.

Eichelberger, an officer of Security Pacific National Bank, said the bank plans to lease the ground floor, but added that negotiations are still in the "initial" mtx sx -sagas mEsrXi. t-" at Los Angeles, a new branch bank for Crocker-Citizens National Bank, and extensive remodeling project for Times-Mirror Co. at Los Angeles. Marvin G. Sutter of San Bernardino is architect, with William E.

Malcomb as associate. San Bernardino real estate broker Jon Vincent presented the offer to the agency, which was accepted after yesterday's public hearing, in the agency offices at Court Street and Arrowhead Avenue. Determination of the fate of another proposed 12-story building at the northeast corner of 2nd and streets, was postponed to the next meeting to be held in two weeks. The agency is considering the default of Southland National Bank, which proposed the building project and made a 5 per cent deposit on the land several months ago. Since then, Southland has sold out to United States National Bank, which occupies a comparatively new building at 4th and streets.

Agency Chairman Al M. Austin said USNB apparently plans to expand its present building and does not intend to build the 12-story structure proposed by Southland. Board member Sanford H. Wein suggested that the agency both forfeit Southland's deposit and assess all expenses incurred by the agency. Also postponed for two weeks was a decision on whether to cover the top floor of the proposed 5-story parking garage with a roof or to landscape it with trees.

Dan Branigan of Victor Gruen Associates, the agency's planning consultant, recommended trees, mainly for aesthetic reasons, and said the cost, including an irrigation system, would be about $16,000. He estimated cost of a roof covering 70 per cent of the area at up to $114,000.

He said nearly all members of the recall committee are NAACP members.

F. Maxwell Co. MacGilivray stated one of the major problems on this project was the handling of traffic during construction, approximately 50,000 cars a day.

Traffic handling costs amounted to about $600,000 for detours, temporary guardrailing, all necessary to insure public motoring safety. The crossing of the Feather River Aqueduct posed some interesting enginering problems. MacGillivray explained the crossing was accomplished by the placement of a 13.5-foot diameter metal steel-plate pipe 210 feet long-passing under the freeway. The pipe had to be laid 15 feet below the natural water table, requiring 24-hour pumping to complete this placement. In the near future, a landscaping project is expected to be advertised which will replace the landscaping taken out during construction.

This project will include a complete irrigation system and planting. The planting will consist of trees, shrubs, and ground cover. me to get good grades. I've done good all along and they just expect it of me." It's not all study though. King has his temptations too.

Said Garrett, "Upon discussing the matter with the recall committee, we agreed with both statements (that) neither organization is officially involved. We have at no time made such a claim." He said, "Since the issue lias been raised, I would like to point out that, with only one or two exceptions, all members of the recall committee and those circulating petitions are memb-rs of the NAACP or the Black Fathers, or both." Garrett has said there are 12 members on the recall committee, but he has declined to name them. He said of a reference to Gregory's past opposition to the Black Fathers and the NAACP in the petition: "We were simply making a statement of fact." He said he agrees with the organizations' statements that they are non-political.

"It was never our intention to involve them in the recall movement," he said. Garrett said that during the Black Fathers' meeting last Saturday, the group agreed that it would not be involved in the recall. "But," he said, water, perfect for making fine Bourbon.

Sixth San The San Bernardino Freeway (Interstate 10) through Colton is complete after, being under construction for two years. The four-mile widening project, 4 to 8 lanes, represents an expenditure of about $6.5 million. The project, from Pepper Avenue to the Santa Ana River, includes a new interchange constructed at Rancho Avenue. Ramps have been added on the last side of 9th Street to complete the interchange for the midtown area. The existing ramp connections at Mt.

Vernon Avenue south of the freeway were realigned and lengthened and a westbound on-ramp was also added to the north side of the freeway at this location. The westbound on-ramp to Sperry Drive was also reconstructed and lengthened. A new bridge was constructed over Warm Creek, which was one of the five bridges on the project.
