Gallup Ceremonial Grounds Move. I-40 Delayed in Gallup
Mission chairman will recommend to allow Gallup Intertribal Ceremonial Association to use its present grounds through 1968. A cutback in federal highway funds likely delays Interstate 40 construction for another year, giving time to build new quarters for the Ceremonial. McKinley County is named in a regional development program covering 22 New Mexico counties and 70 counties in neighboring states to fund job creation and housing, education, transportation and unemployment solutions. Also notes include holiday shopping rush, Pat Boone anecdote, a Mesa Community College group at Mexican Springs Job Corps Center, and a reflection on walking versus being walked.
