Census Crew
Straw Bosses
Begin Rounds
WASHINGTON (AP) - Ten
thousand census screw leaders
make the rounds of 80.000 house
holds today to cct advance
perience fur the lO&Pnational head
count.
The census straw bosses ar
ranged to visit homos picked at
random (rom Maine to Hawaii
bacn slop called tor going
through all the motions of taking
a census, which doesn't begin of
(icially until April 1.
Actually, the crew chiefs were
doing more than go through mo
tions. Their reports will become
part of the official tally and house
holds visited today won't be count
ed again.
However, to keep all data ac
curate as of April 1, a specia
form was being left at each house
hold so any births or deaths dur
ing the rest of the month may be
reported later by mail.
The test was expected to count
about 260,000 residents since the
average household has three to
four members. However, official:
were uncertain whether all would
be tallied by nightfall. With much
of the Midwest shaking off the cf
lects ot a major snowstorm, crew
leaders in some cities were ex
pected to delay their trial run for
a day or two.
The April census will involv
visits to 55 million households by
160,000 enumerators who will lake
orders from the crew leaders
About 180 million residents will be
counted at that time.
Two Brothers
Appear
Before Court
Two landowners appeared before
the county court Wednesday to
clarify a joint City-Counly Planning
commission recommendation on
land zoning near the North En
trance. ,
The visitors, Bob and Dan O'Con
nor, questioned a planning com
mission statement regarding land
in the vicinity of the new OTI
Site, which the O'Connors olfered
the school.
Bob O'Connor said he thought a
planning commission statement in
dicatcd no commercial use of the
land whatsoever. He recommend
ed zoning for light commercial
uses such as a shopping center
In the future.
County Commissioner Frank Ga-
nong said it was his understand
ing the planning commission pro
posed "an interim zone to give
immediate protection to the area,
subject to permanent zoning later."
"We're looking toward a long
range master plan." O'Connor said,
"maybe 10 or 15 or even 40 years.
If the area docs develop and
that's where the growth will be
lt will develop along a master
plan."
He said the land involved in a
master plan would include a two
mile strip of 1.500 acres, from the
city limits north to Shady Pine.
Ganong said he didn't think the
planning commission proposed any
immediate action "that would do
this anything but good."
Judge Bob Walker suggested the
O'Connors talk with Dave DcVoe.
city planner, to see what planning
commission thoughts arc. "He has
the maps, and can give you the
whole picture," Walker said.
