Ohio River board walk proposed at Dayton Beach
Fred Matre of Belleview Kentucky seeks a permit to build a thirty foot wide board walk along three quarters of a mile of Dayton Beach on the Ohio River. The plan includes amusement booths on one side and a pedestrian area on the other. He already owns much of the beach and operates a canoe harbor and fishing beach nearby. Permits are to be decided within two weeks with H Hammell of the U S Engineer’s office reviewing actions. The project could boost river tourism after recent boat races drew regional attention.

Proposed Probe of Pension Funds Faced With Defeat
City Council plans to hire an expert to audit policemen and firemen pension funds at a meeting next Wednesday. An ordinance approving up to 6000 for the expert failed to advance after a near vote on suspending rules, with Republicans Schnieler Daly Yeatman and Mayor Seasongood opposing. Edward Dixon indicated he would vote against the ordinance despite earlier support, and a reconsideration failed.
