Citizens Oppose Underpass Plan For High Point Tracks Relocation Favored
A group of prominent High Point citizens at the Commercial club adopted unanimous resolutions opposing underpasses or overhead bridges on the Southern Railway main line.

The meeting, led by R K Stewart, included J Elwood Cox and J W Clinard, with 20 in attendance and letters from local leaders opposing underpasses.
