Week-end Complete The week-end observing the in- ' stitution of the new area began! with a dance Saturday night at | the V. F. W. hall, when more i than 200 bought tickets. A parade about noon down town. with Chetco Wranglers in the lead, gave color to the pre- institutional ceremonies. A bugle Corps furnished the music tor the parade. Tried Four Years Ago. Attempt was made by Glenn Titus of Coos Bay, in 1947. to institute an aerie here, but at that time a hundred members was needed to start an aerie. Also at that time there were not enough people interested in the founding of an aerie. Since then the number was reduced to 50 members, which prompted the recent successful attempt. Fraternal Order of Eagles are noted for their chairtable work and community-building activi ties. David Crawford, organizer, suggested to the Pilot that the local group will get to work soon on its part in the community ex pansion. New Petition Must Be Circulated Here Insufficient names, together with too little money guarantee for an election, was reason given j the committee seeking date for t election on incorporation for the town of Brookings, at the Wed nesday meeting of the county court. Probably too hurriedly done, the petitions presented to the county court did not contain suf ficient names of legal voters, ac cording to a check made. In ad dition, $250 was said to be need ed to conduct the election, once the date has been set. The incorporation committee, after being informed of the lack, met last Thursday night, to re write and re-circulate the peti tions. Adequate money has now been raised. The petitions, as presented, did not have a notary seal to insure their validity to the county court, due to the hurried preparation and apparent lack of legal ad vice in the matter. Presentation, therefore, will be delayed one month. Nowhere a Finer Community Scenery For Pageantry At Annual "Azalea Festival Princesses Named I For Azalea Festival Beverly Hill.
