Mayor predicts court reversal of freeway rezoning protest
Mayor Don Hummel says a court would overturn the City Council’s freeway area rezoning if not for a planned motel project facing referendum petitions. The controversy centers on a west side parcel south of a juvenile facility, opposed by nearby motel and restaurant owners. Petitions require about 1,300 signatures to trigger a special or April election.

Goldwyn Optimistic Yet Pessimistic On Porgy and Bess Release
Samuel Goldwyn pushes Porgy and Bess as a landmark film while signaling caution about audience reception. He outlines limited early city openings and later wider 35mm distribution, noting a $7.5 million production cost and about $12 million gross needed for profit. The project emphasizes heart and music over spectacle, with Todd-AO and a nearly 100-strong orchestra backing the color musical.
