5. LoewNif; TOM STRICT MM MM SlAUKTOH.VlR.OmiA (Continued from page One) lished in 1738, the very year that the boundaries of the vast territory of the original Augusta county were defined, one is obliged to wonder whether William Beverley who donated twenty-five acres -near the center of his Manor of Beverley for the location and erection of a courthouse and Jail, was moved thereto by active sympathy for Augusta's immediate need, or whether he was the prince of "promoters' of his day. At any rate, the location of Staunton was fixed. Twelve years later the town lots were laid off forty-four of tlfem, each containing a half acre; so were the streets, and named. Those running east and west were Beverley, Frederick and Johnson.

Augusta, Lewis, and Water ran north and south. In colonial days Augusta and Beverley streets were famous thoroughfares. Along them moved covered-wagon caravans loaded with luxuries from far away urban centers to be exchanged for the products of the Valley. Along them, too, rolled the carriages of the socially elect from Tidewater, from the Carolinas, and beyond all bound for the common meeting ground, the Springs. Following them came servants In livery with baggage and horses.

During the Revolution, war came close to Staunton only once. In 1781 the Virginia legislature, assembled at Richmond and in danger of capture by the advancing Tory army, adjourned to meet in Charlottesville. Pursued thither by Tarieton, whom Lord Comwallis had ordered to make a raid into Virginia, the assembly fled from Charlottesville across the Blue Ridge to Staunton where, in the old Trinity Episcopal churchrUie legislative sessions were expected to go on undisturbed. But three days later a report was brought in that Tarieton was pursuing them across the Blue Ridge. Danger seemed lm-lnent; once more the members fled so precipitately that tradition says Patrick Henry left Staunton wearing only one boot.

Again, In the War-BeU-een the States, Staunton was spared the devastating effects of fire and sword; but as a base of supply for the Army of Northern Virginia, and for Jackson's Valley campaign, Staunton stood next to Richmond. In yet more recent times Staunton has again been linked with national history in being the birthplace of Woodrow Wilson, our great President during the first World war. The manse, where Wilson was born, is open to visitors, together with its beautiful gardens In the rear of the house. Visitors will also want to see Mary Baldwin college, founded 1842, whose chapel was once the Presbyterian church where Woodrow Wilson's father preachea and where the son was baptized; Stuart Hall, founded 1843, a preparatory school for girls; Staunton Military academy 1860; Augusta county court house; county clerk's office to see the early court records and the 'deed to the Northwest Territory signed by the chiefs ol the "Five Nations of the North." Something In the entourage may suggest to him that Staunton has a city manager, but he will have to be told that the city manager plan originated here in 1908. He may wish to extend his drive to the home of Colonel John Lewis, pioneer settler, who with thirty Scotch-Irish settlers came in 1732, when Augusta was "No Man's Land." History will tell him that a little over two hundred years ago the splendid stretches of country over which his eye travels was pasturage for buffalo, elk, deer, bear-Nature's market for the native Red Man.

Burruss, educational director at the North River OOC camp, said Monday he had experienced success with the project and the men of his camp. Several veterans have been placed during the past few days in private employment, Mr. Burruss said. The North River CCC camp Is composed entirely of veterans. Mr.

Burruss is working closely with the Staunton, and Harrisonburg employment offices in getting private work for his veterans. When any veteran is placed, it leaves an opening for other veterans who are or have been unable to secure private employment, Mr. Burruss said. 0 Stockdale Jailed Following Wreck After a three-car crash on the Mlddlebrook road two miles south of Staunton Saturday afternoon, Leonard Stockdale, Mlddlebrook star route, was Jailed here by Deputy Sheriff R.

BLONDIE Wavnesboro. May 6--After lengthy discussion In a special meeting of council here tonight, Dr. C. C. Bowman Introduced an ordinance, which would rescind a set-back ordinance passed in 1932, and would enable Associated Physicians, Inc, to construct their proposed office building avenue without revising their plans, 1 Although the ordinance as in troduced must lav over until the next meeting of council for legal adoption or rejection, a pou oi uie five members was taken, with a unanimous vote in favor of the ordinance beinsr recorded.

The poll was taken so that work on the Dhvsiclans' building could be started without the delay of aa additional week. As proposed, the ordinance will rescind the action of an ordinance Dec 13. 1932, wherein Mar ket avenue between Federal and Eleventh streets (east side only) Main street between Maple and Locust avenues, and Main street from Delphine to the corporate limits had a ten-foot set-back es- tablished. Under the terms of the old measure, all buildings on the streets had to be ten feet re moved from the property line at the street. Under the terms of the proposed ordinance, allowance will be made for fifty-foot street.

The maki mint of discussion tonight was the advisability of securing the rights to sixty-foot thoroughfare. It was the final opinion of coun cil that Market avenue would nev er be a main business street, and that fifty feet would be sufficient space for street development, The' lot on which Associated Physicians. Inc, will build meas ures 150 by 50 feet, while their building will be 75 by 44. With building forty-four feet wide and a lot of only fifty feet in widthno allowance was left for the ten-foot set-back. This was not discovered until application was made for a building permit, and It was then that the current discussion started.

With the ordinance repealed, the physicians will be issued a build ing permit at once and win be enabled to build up to the prop erty line on Market avenue. No difficulty Is regarded to set-back was experienced on the federal street side of the proposed structure, as the local ordinances contain no provisions relative to setbacks on this street. Entrance to the office buildirig will be on the Federal street side, the structure being one-story in height With no entrances on Market avenue, the solons felt that the fifty-foot street width would be ample In view of the fact that a smaller sidewalk could be used. The five members of Associated Physicians, are Drs. J.

E. Cox, J. F. Hubbard, D. E.

Watklns, A. M. McLaughlin, and B. K. Weems, an of this city.

Although the meeting was called especially to handle this matter, several minor items were acted upon. On motion of Councilman W. O. Ellison, seconded by S. H.

Hall, a resolution was unanimously passed, petitioning the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad and the state depart ment of highways to seek an appropriation from the federal grade elimination funds for widening the railroad crossing on Florence avenue and closing the railway crossing at Route 254. Action of council tonight parallels that already taken by the local chamber of commerce and the county board of supervisors. It had been pointed out that the crossing on Route 254, near the Wayne Veneer Corp. is danger ous and that by closing it and lm-provlng the crossing on Florence, the situation would be greatly im proved. Authorization was given to Treasurer R.

H. Canada to borrow as needed as high as $20,000 on four per cent notes in anticipation of revenue. At the present time, the city has borrowed under this note plan $10,000, and this amount is included in the $20,000 limit au thorized tonight However, the interest rate of the $10,000 already borrowed is six Instead of four per cent City Manager Vass stated that the Citlzens-Waynesboro Bank and Trust Co. had agreed to handle the notes with-four-per cent inter est All members of council were present as was the city attorney, W.
