West St. Raleigh TE 3-5588 Same Location for Over 12 yearsAdjacent to Ball Park source of water supply for Raleigh. City Manager W. H. Carper has sent letters to the Councilmen urging that attention be given to the possibility of going ahead with a preliminary engineering study.

He said Thursday that the city could go to Falls of Neuse and set up an intake water tower on a temporary basis. This would be used until the Army Corps of Engineers completes its survey of the Neuse and Federal funds are allocated to harness the river. Backed by Coffey, Councilman John Coffey, chairman 1 of the Public Works Committee, said the letter asked that the Council consider hiring engineers to study the present system and how it will tie in with the new water system. Coffey said he supported the study and that it would probably be referred to his committee at Monday's Council session. Proposed development of the Neuse River has dragged along for years.

In 1953, the Legislature formed the Neuse tershed Authority to push for development and conservation along the river. In an ensuing study, MASONIC FUNERAL NOTICE An Emergent Communication of William G. Hill Lodge No. 218, A.F. A.M., (Meeting No.

Saunders St. Raleigh, N. C. Local Men Are Accused Of Rustling Two Raleigh men, Mack Freeman and Eugene Beasley, have been picked up by Harnett County officers and arrested on charges of cattle rustling. The Raleigh residents were arraigned this week after a summer series of cattle thefts that ranged from Wake County to Marlboro, S.

Both men have denied the charges. Beasley told officers that he was only "buying" cows and said he could not give the names of the men he purchased the cows from. Freeman said Beasley had access to his pickup truck but denied any connection with cattle rustling. Treads from a snow grip tire on Freeman's pickup led to the arrest and will figure in as cirI cumstantial evidence when the two men are tried. Officers discovered also that a cow Beasley sold to Wade Freeman, brother of one of the defendants, had been stolen from a Negro farmer in Hoke County, they said.

Two cows were stolen from Harnett residents. Similar thefts have been reported from Hoke, Wake and Scotland counties, and Marlboro, S. C. Beasley has been taken to Hoke County for a hearing next Tuesday and is being held in lieu of $2,000 bond. Freeman, who has been released on $2,000 will appear in Harnett Recorder's Court at Lillington for a September 28 hearing.

-Wilson Mills near Smithfield. -Wiggins Mill, south of Wilson. -Bakers Mill, northeast of Goldsboro. Only Large Source. Carper said Thursday that his proposed study would be to "firm up" proposed engineering work such as plans for a filter plant on the north side of the city, location and size of lines to be laid.

The Corps of Engineers last March said it would be 1970 before the flood control project along the Neuse could be completed. They studied the river from the view of flood control, recreation, and minimum stream flow. The Federal government would build the dam at Falls of Neuse as high as necessary to furnish flood control. The city would then have to furnish money to build the dam higher for a water reservoir. Carper said he doubted that Raleigh could wait until 1970 to tap the Neuse.

He said the engineers promised to cooperate as much as possible in showing approximately where the proposed dam would go so that Raleigh would be able to utilize its water lines after the dam is built. Raleigh is growing rapidly in a westerly and northwesterly direction and the present reservoirs are south and southwest of the city, Carper pointed out. Development of the Research Triangle area has further pushed the city into seeking another source of water. Coffey said, "We must have the Neuse River supply in the next five years or so." The Army Corps of Engineers has estimated it would complete the preliminary report on the river by the fall of 1962 or 1963. Carper said the report then would go through channels and probably reach Congress by the fall of 1963.

Congress then would have to pass an authorization bill and furnish funds for the project. Staton to Speak At Wake Rally State Democratic National Committeeman W. W. (Bill) Staton of Sanford will be the speaker Oct. 3 at a Wake County party rally.

The rally and supper meeting will be held in the State Fair Arena, beginning at 6:30. The idea is to keep up party interest even in the off-year. The rally is being co sponsored by the county party organization and the Wake Young Democratic Club. Thomas D. Bunn and YDC President Lucius Pullen head a committee named by County Chairman Robert Cotten to plan the rally.

Patient Balks At Separation From His Dog Casper Guy Jay, 54, of Philadelphia, was unwilling to be separated from his poodle dog. Jay was admitted Thursday to Rex Hospital with a knee injury received in an auto collision on U. S. 70 about two miles west of Raleigh. At the hospital, a rather animated conversation began over Jay's toy French Poodle.

Jay wanted the dog to stay with him. He travels, Jay explained, and his dog had never been separated from him. But the hospital folks explained that they had rules. No dogs allowed. Dr.

Thomas B. Dameron Jr. finally resolved the dilemma by making arrangements to put Jay's poodle in an animal hospital here for a few days. and patient were doing fine last night. ARCHITECT'S SKETCH OF 9-STORY DORMITORY Nine- Story Dorm Planned at State State College plans to ask the State Board of Higher Education for authority today to build a nine-story dormitory, the first of its kind in the State.

Dr. John T. Caldwell, State College chancellor, said the structure would cost $2 million and would house about 800 students. The college's plans call for nancing dorm with a loan from the the Federal Housing and Home Administration. The 40- year loan and interest would be paid off from rentals collected from the students.

If both the Board of Higher Education and the State Advisory Budget Commission give their approval, construction should begin sometime in December. "We hope to have the building ready for the fall of 1963," said Terry Waugh, State College campus planner and associate professor of architecture. Waugh said the 85-foot high building would have three "centrally located elevators." It would be situated on a site west of Bragaw dormitory and in the gener. al area of the old Vetville Married students' housing. "High rise buildings of this sort are in the vogue on campuses today," said Waugh.

"They save land space and make the campus more compact. City Building Inspector Sets 'Tougher' Policy Raleigh's Chief Building Inspector Jim Bridger said Thursday he will cite to court all property owners who refuse to repair their condemned buildings on 30-day notice. Me said his office began this "tougher" policy early this month when 20 letters were mailed to property owners whose buildings had been condemned for some time. "It has brought good results," Bridger said. "Several people have notified me of their plans to begin repairs." The letters state that the buildings must be repaired within 30 days or "we must take action to protect the health and safety of the general public." Bridger said the property owners would be cited to court under a law which heretofore has not been enforced by his office.

The statute makes it misde. meanor for a person to fail to comply with the orders of the building inspector. Fines in such cases are not to exceed $50, but each week 1 the building is allowed to remain defective constitutes another offense. Bridger said he met with City Solicitor Carl Churchill early this month to ascertain the procedure for enforcing the law. Byways of the News By Charles Craven.

RALEIGH attorney Arthur Aronson, who wears a neatly cropped mustache, decided the other day he would cultivate this lip decoration into a sure enough Von Hindenburg mustache. For those youngsters who are not familiar with Von Hindenburg mustache, they have only to recall the long. sharp and nobly spiked mustache of the German general of World War I. Aronson was making some progress with the project. His mustache had grown enough so it could be twisted into a coltple of fairly sharp points.

But, not being quite long enough, they would unravel, leaving the mustache slightly ragged looking at the ends. YORK RITE MASONIC NOTICE A regular conclave of ROC Raleigh Commandery No. 4 K. T. will be held in the Masonic Temple on Friday, September 15.

Waugh said he knew of no other "high rise" dormitory in the State, "But the University of North Carolina is building a sixstory dorm now and Woman's College is planning a nine-story dormitory that will be similar to ours," he said. State College officials said the campus is currently "700 to 1,000 beds shy" of meeting its present housing needs.

"Even more distinguished than it already is." Well, yesterday he came in the courthouse: mustache clipped. "Why, what happened?" we inquired.

He went on to relate that. he withstood these pronouncements, doggedly twisting the ends of his mustache in the face of such ridicule.

But as he bent to caress his little granddaughter, she fled. "I went to the barber shop," glunsly said the attorney.
