Good wishes are extended to Harrison Library * Despite the fact that the road to Harrison school has been under construction most of the summer and is blocked off at the access, the response of the community to having the library open has been greater this year than last.

This was the purpose of calling the initial meeting on July 24. The five men who opened this touchy subject remain firm in their resolve to bring the matter to a vote. So far the number of people who have expressed their stand publicly either way has been only a handful, certainly not enough to warrant either side predicting the outcome. The thir)g .that has not been accomplished in the community before is an objective study of these pros and cons (and now we are to have not one, but t w o c o m p i l a t i o n s o f b o t h sides of the issue. . . there must be a better way of confusing the people than that). We can hear enough misinformation to trnow that the people are not informed. However, the feeling has always run so higfy that all but the rugged individuals who enjoy a hot debate go home and go to bed with their hats on. • >. A community aroused is a healthy hopeful sight. . . . . apathy is the worst menace fo all the things we all hold dear. Because there are two alerted sides we feel confident the residents will learn more not only about incorporation but about the government under which they now live administered by the countv. Change of Phone Number We have a new phone number. . . . again. . . . and we, hope a final one. Couldn't be moie timely with the community in controversy, in as much as "intercept" can only be promised for a limited time. So if the phone's ringing would lead you to believe we are never home on the listed number, try W. L. 4261. By Way of Explanation The reason the petition for a vote on incorporation has not been filed is because it must be accompanied by a legal description of the proposed area to incorporate depending, upon whether a village or city is the goal, and the problem of drafting the petition to insure the privacy of the beaches so as to Switch Boat Race Last Sunday the Yacht Club held its yearly switch boat race with Harold Coursen's boat skippered by Stan Scfrufft coming in first.
