Coast Road Scheduled To Reopen - SALEM, Feb. 25 yP) The Oregon coast highway, blocked for three weeks, was scheduled for reopening today with the clearing of slides near Manza nita and Florence. The state highway commission said they expect to have the Manzanita slide cleared by noon. This slide occurred December 6 and caused one-way traffic re strictions, but three weeks ago It took out a seciton of the road, causing traffic to be detoured via the Sunset and Necahicum highways. The slide 12 miles north of Florence occurred Saturday, blocking the road. No detour was available, so traffic on the road was halted. The commission said the Flor ence slide should be cleared some time today, and that the Manzanita section would be opened early this afternoon. Report '.
