Sometime between 11:30 a.m. and 12:15 p.m., someone, a child probably, came along, spied the purse and made off with it. Tina, of ceurse, was heart-broken. The Wastell family will be very happy if the finder will just walk by some night and toss the purse back on to the porch. It will not only make Tina happy, but they also have a son who can make use of the coin.

A FULL BUILDING permit could not be issued until the Appeals Board ruled on the issue of offstreet parking.

Under the City Zoning Ordinance, downtown buildings must provide offstreet parking space equal to the ground area of the structure being built. The Board waived the requirement in the. St Stephen case, as it hat for several downtown store buildings, explaining that providing such parking space would be a bard-ship on the builders. THE BOARD also passed a resolution calling on City Engineer Allan T. Carlisle, Zoning Administrator to "investigate the delay" in a zoning violation case pending in Circuit Court and report to the Board at its next meeting.

The case, against Mrs. Olga Zepezauer, 1816 Howard street, was started April 6 by City Attorney Samuel D.
