The eight-unit apartment building. Westmoor Manor, located on North 16th street, just off Nuttman Ave., is nearing completion, with several units already finished and occupied. The balance will be available for occupancy as they are completed. Clark W. Smith. Decatur developer and builder of the new apartment building, has announced plans for an open house this weekend. Although only one apartment will be furnished, there will be other areas of the building open for inspection. Open house hours will be from 2 to 4 p.m. and 7 to 9 p.m. Saturday, and from 2 to 4 p.m. Sunday, or for an appointment call 3-3512. Applications for apartments will be taken during the open house. These apartments were planned for gracious living, especially for those couples who no longer require a large home and who no longer care for the responsibility of home ownership. The accent has been placed on convenience
and comfort. The latest in modem equipment anti facilities have been provided automatic laundry area, timed lighting in parking area, along sidewalks, in entry foyer and halls. Automatic incinerator within the building makes disposal of all trash convenient. i Individual Controls Each apartment has individually controlled heat and air conditioning. General Electric food disposals, recently developed, liquify refuse at the sink. General Electric refrigerators jand built-in ranges go to complete the allelectric kitchens. Beautiful handrubbed kitchen cabinets are so arranged to provide plenty of storage space and a vejy convenient and efficient kitchen and dining area. The two-bedroom apartments are completely carpeted with pastel shades, as well as carpet in all hall areas. A ceramic tile bath is adjacent to the bedrooms. Television and telephone receptacles are permanently installed in several locations in each apartment. A recreation area is available for special activities. During construction, all known systems for soundproofing were employed. Latest, and perhaps with the best results, the newly designed R C-l Chanel was employed. This system is based on the theory that 90 per cent cent of sound is transmitted through the structural members, such as wall studs and floor joists. The R C-l Chanel holds the plaster wall away from the framing members, thus reducing greatly the sound transmission. Accessibility to any apartment is possible frorp either entrance. A large area soon to be paved will provide individual parking, and this and the lawn area in the rear will be enclosed by a fence. Brick Colonial Design The eight-unit building, with provisions for additional units, is of a brick colonial design, with four apartments up and four apartments down. The porch entrance has large two-story columns on either side of the attractive colonial entrance. The architectural appearance blends into the surrounding residential area. > Individual off-street parking is provided in the area to be paved. with private fenced-in lawn and patio areas available to occupants. The area has separate sanitary and storm sewers, assuring adequate sewage facilities. 0 20 Years Ago Today 0 0 Jan. 23. 1944 — was Sunday and no pap>er was published.

Selection Os Hoffa _ / -T < ».r ■ 'V - -> Jury Appears Near CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (UPI) — Selection of a jyry for the James Hoffa jury - tampering triai( appeared near today despite defense charges of racial discrimination and telephone tapping. Government attorneys held slim hopes of starting their expected two-week-long presentation of evidence sometime today. Eleven prospective jurors were to be seated in the jury box when the fourth day of proceedings started. However, they face possible peremptory challenges by government and defense attorneys. . Examination of prospective jurors was stepped-up Wednesday when federal Judge Frank Wilson took over jury examination. Hoffa, the controversial Teamsters Union president, and five others' are charged with attempting to bribe or influence jurors Id Hoffa’s 1962 Nashville mistrial on conspiracy charges. Hoffa, if convicted, could receive 20 years imprisonment and fines of $20,000. Attorney Jacques Schiffer, representing Negro Thomas Ewing Parks, charged late Wednesday there has been “dis-‘ crimination against Negroes” in the selection of a jury list for the trial. Shiffer, waving his arms and pointing his finger at the government attorneys, said “all we have is a list of names and addresses. We do not have what race these persons are.” He shouted: “All the government wants in this case is a drum head court martial. This is not Russia.”
W 11 J 1 Many Services By Postal Department Postmaster John Boch suggests that an excellent resolution for .many people to make this year would be to learn more than is now generally known about the services provided by the major departments of natural government. "This would be particularly appropriate,” says' Boch, “in light of President Johnson’s current project to reduce the number of federal employees without adversely affecting essential services.” The postmaster points out that when most people think about the post office they formulate instinctively a picture of a place to mail letters, or buy stamps, or deposit a package, or purchase a money order, or transact some other kind of simple business. These are, of course, important functions of the postal service, but by themselves they make up an incomplete and inaccurate picture. What the postal service is in fact is quite different from what it seems to be at fact value. These are some of the things that postmasters and other post office persbnnel do besides processing mail and performing the obvious kinds of window service: 1. Assist F. B. I. and other law enforcement agencies in the apprehension of criminals. 2. Aid the F. H. A. <Federal Housing Administration) in making surveys of housing and vacancies. 3. Assist the treasury department with the same of savings stamps, documentary stamps, and sale of confiscated property. 4. Act as an agent of the department of the interior in the sale of bird-hunting stamps. 5. Make flags for veterans’ funerals available on behalf of the veterans administration. 6. Furnish a secretary and board of examiners to the civil service commission and maintain an information window. (Secretary is actually examiner-in-charge). 7. Register aliens for the state department. ■ ■ 8. Receive and transmit funds for voluntary charities: Heart, Polio, Cancer, Crippled Children, etc. 9. Witness the marking of absentee ballots. 10. Witness declarations of competence by private bondsmen. 11. Furnish booklets on fallout shelters and what to do in case of nuclear attack. Serve as post attack registration center for all federal employees in the area. 12. Furnish information and aps plications for the peace corps program. Those who have questions about any aspect of post office business should either write the postmaster or call his office at 3-3205.
