"Approximately $19,000 of the
planning funds will be used for
initial surveys and redevelopment plans; the remainder of
this money will be held in reserve by the federal government
for the final plans if the program is approved. This advance
of funds will permit us to make
the actual land and property
surveys, appraisals, preliminary
plans, and also plan for the
relocation of families which will
have to be displaced. This
should take from six to nine
months.
This advance of funds for
plans and surveys culminates
two and one-half years of work
and will permit the actual "on

As a result, he has broken his
nose on five different occasions
during his football career.
Fullback Bill Bowman of the
