New City Plans Downtown Water Well
A new city water well is planned on the old post office property to improve pressure during peak use. A test hole was drilled yesterday on the east edge of city property as part of three tests by Henkle Drilling and Supply Co. The company also drilled tests along the drainage ditch near the electrical substation and in the Gardendale area, but none matched the potential seen at the old post office site. The downtown area will gain its first water well while existing wells at 11th and Santa Fe and Finnup Park remain closest for current supply.

Gagel Linked to Three Gains in U.S. 69 Relocation
George Gagel, chairman of the Kansas highway commission, faces charges that relocating U.S. 69 through his Johnson County farm will benefit him in three ways. A three acre strip near Stanley, Kansas, would aid a church and YMCA via gifts, while the right of way and land value may boost his finances. The dispute arose at a meeting of Southeast Kansas Highway Association members condemning highway project allocations across the 11-county 4th division.
