D r. A. G. Beagle, USDA vet­

re ca lle d last week that C u rry
was one of the f ir s t areas tn

issue seems to be th a t the Earl
Barrington property, fa c in g on
Jackson, is now below the road
bed,due to f illin g , and he wants
the grade low ered. The county
says a th re e -fo o t cu t w ould be

owns property across the street
