WHN News

April 1973

At its March meeting, Washington Heights Neighbors reelected Virgil Wright, Eddie Sanders and Georgia Barnett as representatives on the SDCC Board. Bruce Smith and Janette Stokes are alternates.

A highlight of the meeting was a panel discussion on the problems of dogs and trash by Alderman John Roach; Mr. Clyde Ferris, court administrator; Corporal Shapiro, 7th district police sanitation officer; and Mr. John Schilling, assistant health commissioner. All are anxious to see new regulations which raise fines for trash violations, speed the process of fining, and make each offense a separate issue with a separate fine.

Block chairmen are still needed in the WHN area for 5900 McPherson, 5900 Washington, 5700 Kingsbury, 5700 Westminster, and 5800 Nina Place. Block chairmen for the other blocks were announced in the February issue of The Paper.

Special thanks to Jane Armstrong, Theo. McAllister, Thomas Banks, Mrs. Florence Harris, Bob Brown and Eddie McGhee who distribute The Paper on blocks where there are no chairmen.

Originally published in The Paper, April 1973.
