Renewal hearing faces clash over zoning for single family homes
A majority of about 300 residents at the east central urban renewal hearing opposed plans to mix apartments with duplexes. They urged sole single family zoning north of Leonard Street and east of Thissell Street, arguing the city should evolve gradually while developers retain option under current zoning. The task for the redevelopment commission is to balance housing needs with neighborhood preferences and secure public support for the project.

North State Telephone expands reach as Thomasville lines grow
The North State Telephone Company projects 40 000 subscribers this fall as directories expand to cover growing Thomasville and local businesses. Three High Point High School graduates held a Naples Italy reunion with U S Navy assignments, led by Ensign Blackburn. Cavas and Snotherly joined in. The trio shared memories, Italian dining, and a NATO Officers Club lounge visit. A lighthearted anecdote about repair work recalls a warning note from a shocked neighbor and a frank foreman report about hot lead on a line.
