San Antonio to Try Concrete Paving Experiment on Pedro Avenue

City engineers report bids for a concrete pavement trial on San Pedro avenue from the current paving end to Russell place. Five bids range 85 cents to $1.86 per square yard with two thirds of costs to be paid by abutting property owners. Concrete paving praised for longevity and repair ease, with a one inch expansion gap near curbs to prevent cracking. A Monday city council report will present the bid results. Special Christmas dinner offered at The Gunter Hotel, December 25, from 6 to 8:30 p.m. at $1.50 per plate. Reservations requested.
