-~~-·
Shortly after noon on the day after the twelfth day of Christmas
the 71st session of the Illinois Assembly met to hear Governor
William G. Stratton's far-reaching legislative program for 1959.
After listening to Stratton, the lawmakers retired to plan the
presentation of their favorite bills.
The most curious of the proposed bills will be the one dealing
with branch banking, sponsored by Rep. Paul J. Randolph (Il . ,
Chicago).
As nearly as we can disce·rn, Randolph's bill will not have
the backing of downstate and suburban congressman.
They feel as we do, that branch banking's monopolistic tendencies are unhealthy for 1&gt;uburban economies.
In California, for example, the Bank of America grew to such
enormous proportions because the state did not legislate against
branch banking that depositors unhappy with tbe B. of A. have
no other place to put their money - except, perhaps, their mattresses.
Therapeutically speaking, this might not be ha:mful since
medical researchers claim that our sleeping pads are much too
soft.
Some green on our backs might be additionally beneficial
during these cold nights if we could compound the money v.ith
mustard plasters.

The city-or-village hassle is all over now, but we thought our
readers still might get a kick out of the cartoon reproduced
below. It was prepared prior to Tuesday's city-or-village vote
by Julian J. Frazin of 4907 W. Crain St., Skokie. Frazin is an
attorney - and an artist and humorist as well, it appears.

SKOKIE VOTERS TURN DOWN CITY
ELECTION PHOTOS

Fear of Higher Taxes
Apparent Key to Defeat
Skokie stuck to its vi 11 age form of government Tuesday.
Voters turned back, 7,772, to 6,526, a proposal which would have
made the community a ci ty.
The election climaxed a vigorous campaign waged by local
governmental "outs," who formed the Skokie Civic Federation to
push the change and thus possibly gain a toehold in village administration. They built th ei r campaign around the theme that
neighborhoods needed "someone to see" - a nearby alderman who would be more directl y responsible to thei r wishes.
The so-called "ins" and their friends, notably Martin "Scotty"
Krier' s Niles Township Regular Democratic Organization and the
Independent Republican Club,
fought
back fiercely . They "at large" system of electing

The mayor - or vill.a ge president - and clerk likewise are

The vote was comparatively
heavy, considering blus t e r y
weather which developed in
mid-afternoon and p r o b ably
persuaded a number of vot ers
to stay at home. Sriow began
falling about 3 p.m. and by
poll-closing time - 6 p.m. - a
storm was raging.
The issue was a heat ed one
from its inception - the presentation of petitions fo r the
referendum last Augus t by members of the Skokie Civic Federation. Village trus t ees ruled

Nilehi Trojans Lose Again;
Evanston W
·ildkits Win 63-44
by MIKE RUBY
If the Niles Trojans had
played four first quarters last
Friday, they would have woo
themselves a basketball game.
As it was, they were outscored by a substantial margin
in each of the other three and
lost to the Evanston Wildkits

63-44.
The Trojans, who outscored
their oppone"ts 13 - 11 in the
first quarter, were outpointed
20 - 13, 16 - 8, and 16 - 10 in
each of the last three quarters.
High point man in the game
was Ron Henrici with 17 - 16

rn the first half. Close behind
were three Evanston men:
Jack Stickney, 16; Fred Gablenz, 15; and Dan Holman, 14.
Holman, a fast 5 foot 9 inch
guard ,
passed brilliantly
throughout the game. Ron Lis,
Trojan guard, was limited to
eight points, a far cry from the
30 he hit against Morton.
The Trojans again were
weak at the free throw line,
hitting for only 50 per cent
while their opponents hit for
67 per cent.
Next on the varsity schedule

is an away game with W
aukegan Friday.
The soph game was a different story, with the Trojans
pulling out a 37 - 36 Win.
The Nilehiers jumped to a
10 - 5 lead at the end of the
first quarter, but relinquished
this and. were losing 18 - 15
at half. In the third quarter,
the Trojans moved ahead and
stayed there.
Top players, for the Trojans
were Larry Mills, Bronson
Davis ana Jim Reicherts.

Famed Soprano Mimi Benzell
To Appear in Skokie Feb. 28
Mimi Benzell, world famous
coloratura soprano, has signed
for a special benefit performance on Feb. 28 for the Niles
Township Jewish Congr~gation
of Skokie.
The concert will be held in
the new West Niles Township
Hig'll School auditorium in
Skokie, which has a seating
capacity of 1,500. The concert
will begin promptly at 8:30
p.m.
All proceeds derived from
the ticket sales will go into
the special "Children's Fund"
of the Temple. All seats ar'e
reserved, and ticket donations
are $3.50 &amp; 5.00.
This is the first attempt to
bring 'cultural arts' to the fast
growing suburban community of
Skokie. It is the hope of Rabbi
Sidney J. Jacobs, spiritual
leader of the temple, that this
will become a community project, and a sell-out for this
initial effort to bring people,
such as Miss Benzell, out from
the city.
Tickets for the concert are
now on sale at these following
locations:
First National Bank of Skokie
Jewish
Township
Niles
Congregation
Old Orchard Bank &amp; Trust
Company

OKs Construction
On Small Lot
Judge John A. Sbarbaro of
Superior court h a s ordered
Skokie to allow construction
of a home on 'a "landlocked"
lot at 8724 N. Harding in the
village.
The lot, only 30 feet wide,
is in a single family residential
(R-1) zone where 55 feet of
frontage and 6,600 square feet
of land area are required under
the village ordinance.
The vacant lot was termed
because it's
"landlocked"
flanked on both sides by homes.
Thus, there is no additional
available land the owner can
purchase to widen the narrow
lot, the court said. The lot
is 119 feet deep,
A variation to build was
denied by the village zoning
board of appeals in August,
1958. But Judge Sbarbaro said
the plaintiff · is entitled to
relief sought "as a matter of
law."
The court said the effect
o f the zoning requirements
amounts to a taking of the lot
without due process of law
and without any just or adequate
compensation. Judge Sbarbaro
noted the lot was s.ibdivided
by a plat recorded in 1925,
many years before enactment
of Skokie' s zoning ordinance.

Wbile the Diner's Club is internationally known,
the Dyer's Club, although local, is equally
prominent.
Members of this unique organization meet
every other Thursday evening in Alex and
Stephanie's Beauty Salon on Oakton St.
Charter members are Ann Johnson, Doris
Martins and Joan Beach. The only requisite for
joining is the adoption of the club's motto:
"Hail, Male! We Gladly Dye for Thee!"
Like an enchanted castle in the middle of a
dense and forbidding jungle, is the charming
"Golden Deer."
Located,at 936 Rush St. in Chicago, it is a
complete contrast to the fast moving activities
on that strip. Candle lights, soft music, wonderful food, it caters to those who like to en joy
their dinner leisurely.
Larry Beneitone, former University of Iowa
athlete, sets the pace for his charming, below
street level spa. No flashing neon lights o r
blazoned banners mark the spot. Just a tiny
golden deer.

We concede to the attractiveness of doorknobs
placed in the center of a door. However,we must
admit they are quite disconcerting.
Every time we tum one of these center knobs,
we expect the door to slide up like the one on
a garage.

Mrs. Shea Heads
Heart Fund Drive
Mrs. L. Shea, 8329 Oketo,
Niles, has accepted the chairmanship of the Niles Committee
in the Suburban Division of
the 1959 Chicago Heart Fund
Campaign.
The Chicago Heart Association conducts a camp a i g n
annually during February with
the climax occurring on Heart
Sunday, Feb. 22, when between the }fours of 1 and 4 p.m.
an army of Heart volunteers
in Cook, Lake and· DuPage
Counties will call on neighbors seeking contributions to
the fight against Heart Disease.

For weeks we counted calories. We wasted
money purchasing tasteless "non-caloric"
goodies. But undaunted, we valiantly fought our
battle of the bulge.
Then the thrill of victory won. A female remarked that we "looked positively tiny." This
is an adjective never before used in connection
with our particular type of figure.
But how fleeting is victoi;y. Along came the
Skokie Valley Hadassah Taste and Test Luncheon.
We did not realize this was a subversive group
determined to undermine the will power of dieters
when we accepted their invitation to be one of
their "taste" judges.
The food was delightful, delicious and most
inviting. The wonderful offerings were attractive
as well as much too palatable.
We tasted flld tested to the tune of about a
few thousand cal.ories. The Hadassah women
are probably the world's greatest culinary artists.
The only thing left for · us now is to sign up
for a re-match with our wrestling partner - Kid
Calorie.

These are the facts, ma'am: A triend, known
for her propensity for ma iotaining apartment
acquariums, noticed that one of her gold fish
had leaped out of the bowl. As the wiggler
struggled on the floor, the "keeper of the bowl"
shouted frantically, "Stand back, give it air!"

Vanes will bring ten or twelve
reproductions
from the Art
Institute with her. She will
take them to each class-room
and discuss them at length
with the youngsters. The pictures will be on display at the
school for a week after this
session so that the children
can study them further.

�BELL and HOWELL'S

PERC Y
His Philosophy
Of 'Democracy
In Business' Pays Off
For Huge Lincolnwood
Photographic
Equipment Firm

. . . in his office

by BETTY NEFF
When Charles H. Percy took overthe presidency
of Bell &amp; Howell company at the age of 29 he
was a phenomenon of the business world. Today,
10 years and innumerable honors later, the boy
wonder has fulfilled his youthful promise.
Percy has been one of those apparently starblessed prodigies who has succeeded at everything
he has attempted.
He worked his way through New Trier high
school and the University of Chicago, where
his qualities of leadership were quickly recognized. At the university he was president of
his fraternity, Alpha Delta Phi; president of the
Inter Fraternity Council; president of Owl
and Serpent, senior men's honorary society;
captain of the university's Big Ten championship water polo team, and university marshal
to Chancellor Robert M. Hutchins, the highest
honor given to a senior.
While attending the university, he entered
Bell &amp; Howell's cooperative training program,
working his way through almost every department.
Upon his graduation in 1941, he assumed fulltime employment with the company and a year
later - at the age of 23 - he was elected to the
board of directors.
In 1943 he entered the Navy as an apprentice
seaman. He was discharged in 1945 with the
rank of lieutenant senior grade and a commendation
on his '' efficient administration and supervision ...
(and) his initiative and cooperation" from Rear
Admiral V.H. Ragsdale.
When he returned to Bell &amp; Howell at the ripe
old age of 26, he was made corporate secretary
and given responsibility for the company's industrial relations and foreign manufacturing
programs.

His boss, Joseph H. McNabb , was of the old
autocratic · executive school. Young Percy, on
the contrary, felt that bridging the gap betwee1Z
labor and management- explaining management's
position and listening to labor's problems - was
a key to sound-business practice.
When McNabb died the board of directors,
whose ages averaged 66 years, elected the 29·
year-old Percy president. That same year he
was named one of the IO outstanding young men
in the United States by the U.S. Junior Chambe.r
of Commerce.
Thus , in a span which finds many men still
unsettled on a career, Percy had attained such
executive eminence as is granted to few even
twice his age .
'Expect The Best'
"Chuck" Percy is a man of ideas, and he
puts those ideas to work.
Nuclear to his success in the business world
is the high value he places on other people. He

... with Sadie Wright in BMM Projector assembly.

definitely does not believe in the adage, "If you
want a thing done well, do it yourself. " Percy
can - and does - delegate authority, and under
his leadership this policy reaches right down to
the bottom level of employment.
''I believe that the faith we place in people is
seldom disappointed," he said in explaining his
philosophy of management. "To expect the best
of a man is almost assurance that you will receive it. When I give a man a job to do, I leave
that job to him. It is his responsibility - his is
the credit or the blame for what he makes of it.
"Generally, no two people do a thing in the
same way. Every man brings to a problem a fresh
point of view and a new approach. The value of
individual effort and thinking can never be overestimated. At Bell &amp; Howell company our production workers often have solved problems on
the job that management has wrestled with unsuccessfully.
"Once a man knows that his opinions are
respected, that his ideas are valued, his energy
and mind are turned to constructive interest in
his work. I do not believe in men doing the work
that machines can do. Nor do I believe in hiring
only the work of a man's hands when he is eager
to give his heart and his mind to his job."
Percy brought democracy to Bell &amp; f/ouell.
fl is first move as president was to invite all
2,000 employ es and their families to a meeting
at which he laid it on the line with respect to
company problems, profits, costs and other
data.
This first "family night" has become an an•
nual affair, but Percy didn't stop there. He
instituted monthly meetings with foremen, giving
them information to pass on to all employes. He
and other top executives went "back to school"
for intensive courses in the company's business,
ten hours a day for three days. He began writing
a column for the company newspaper.

economic factors and the company's own performance record, a series of future goals - high,
but theoretically attainable - are set.
Within the long-range program, short-range
planning for the ensuing year is worked out.
Continual scrutiny and revision keeps the operations on target.
\\hen the recession came along last winter
and spring, B &amp; H stepped up its timetable for
issuance of several new photographic items
featuring emphasis on automatic, foolproof
picture-raking and projection. As a result, there
was no recession at Bell &amp; Howell.
"Over 60 per cent of our sales for the first
half of 1958 were in new products introduced in
the past two and a half years," Percy said.
Sales for 1956, 1957 and the first half of
1958 totaled $121,525,758 - only a little less
than the total of $127,087,629 accumulated
during the seven years of the postwar boom in
photographic sales from 1946 through 1952.
Only this month the company introduced an
electric eye still camera, the first completely
automatic still camera of its kind to reach the
market. The camera automatically sets the lens
for proper exposure and for distance.

Civic Respons ibility, Too
In addition to t he far -sighted leadership which
has characterized his career at B &amp; H, Percy is
in cit ic and political a ff airs. Among his outside
posts are:
Member, business ad11isory council of the U. S.
Department of commerce,· vice -chairman, Republican National Finance Committee; president,
United Republican Fund of Illinois; board member, Committee for a National Trade Policy,·

But the core of his energie s is devoted to
B &amp; H. And his uncommon drive is reflected in

A transplanted Englishman is teaching American
businessmen how to make sense to their employes.
He is George J. Rogers of 9226 Newcastle
Ave., Morton Grove, economic counselor and
director of American Free Enterprise Productions.
His mission is to create mutual understanding
among a 11 levels of a business or industrial
organization, thereby eliminating in-plant friction
and promoting higher productivity and- as an
.I
en d result - greater profits.
How does a stranger go about telling the
president of a firm how to run his business?
"In this country, consulting has become an
accepted practice," Rogers said in a recent
interview. "The average businessman is so very
long-range problems, that he doesn't have very
much time to sit down and just think.
"In those areas where you have research or
study required, where ideas have to be developed,
they (top executives) usually have to rely on
outside assistance. The important thing is that
they reach the point where they know they need
the help . "
Executives usually come to the "help wanted"
conclusion by trial and error, he said.
"Suppose they are continually having problems in the plant," Rogers explained.
"Productivity isn't high enough, or there is all
kinds of friction in the company. They try 101
ways to overcome it and they eventually find
that the patchwork approach to these problems
doesn't work.
"Then they begin tu look for some thing that

In the study of his Morton Grove home, Rogers
checks a point in one of the reports to stockholders he prepares for various companies.

has a basic overall application, such as changing
the employes' attitudes. It's at this point that
they start looking for professional help (n that
area."

What English Language? .
Each firm's problems are individual, and
Rogers attacks them as such. But a cornerstone
of his approach is his conviction that many
problems can be solved by semantics - the science
of the meaning of words.
"We think of the English language as one
language, but it actually is a tremendous number
of different ianguages," he declared. "Your
doctor has one jargon, your chemist another.
Executives, supervisors, and employes all have
their own.
''One of the great difficulties that executives
have had is in expressing a thought in the language
of the employ es - a.'ld instead of expressing it
in terms of the self-interest of the company, they
should be expressing it in terms of the selfinterest of the· employes.''
Rogers gotinterestedin whathe calls "applied
human relations'' when he was a young man
operating his own business in Canada.
He had migrated to Canada when he was 22.
England was undergoing tough times in the postWorld War I period, and Rogers felt the New
World offered more oppoµunity than his native
country.

George Rogers explains his labor-management
relations studies to a luncheon meeting of
businessmen.

Royal Insurance Company of Liverpool, so the
insurance field was his first place of employment.
He worked for the Metropolitan Life Insurance
company and the Excelsior Insurance company,
as well as a Canadian branch of his old firm,
Royal, in Ottawa. Then he became an employer.
''I had lent a man some money co go into
business and he was losing the money, so I had
co go into the business myself," he laughed.
le was a fateful move in more respects than
one. Rogers learned what life from the boss'
side of the desk was like - and he also met his
future wife.
The firm he headed dealt in wholesale cosmetics. Adele Mahaics operated a beauty shop

and new techniques in inter-personal comm unicacion.
A fundamental concept emerging from chis work
was that all human friction results from a lack
of know ledge or understanding of the actual
faces of any given situation.
While working at GE, Rogers had occasion
co consult with the American Economic Founda:
cion in New York, a non-profit national program
dealing with human behavior and economic
education. General chairman of the AEF was
Fred Clark of New York, and Rogers wound up
on Clark's staff.
The Foundation was conducting experiments
in semantics, tests which showed that certain
words - used commonly by millions - could be
proved co be the cause of misunderstandings.
Many of the words had acquired different meanings for different social groups, or had no meaning co all for some.

�BEAUTIFUL
TRADITIONS
The Orientals represent our ol.dest civilization
and adhere to many beautiful traditions and customs today.
The Chinese New Year is a day of honor and
celebration among them. On this day they have their feast
and festivities, but most significant of all is the tradition
they have of undertaking to pay off all indebtedness and
obligations prior to that day.
Friendships which have been s trained or
broken are restored as far as humanly possible.
It is only then that they bow before Confucious

or Buddha stating that their debts have been paid, friendships
restored, etc., and then ask God's blessings for the New Year.
Isn't this type of New Year celebration sane
and sensible?

R ogers and his wife, Adele, enjoy their pet
parakeet . The economic coun selor doesn't u·orry
about semantics when teaching the bird to talk.
that's u·hat has happened in this country as far
as economics goes.
"Whal I'm trying to do in the simplest way
possible is to explain how industry operates
and to explain hou the people living in this
country can get the most for probably the least
amount of effort - and you don't do it by fighting
each other, you do it by cooperation."
Do n't Loaf, Cooperate

By '' least amount of effort'', Rogers does not
mean getting paid for doing nothing.
"This is elementary and childish," he stated,
"but no one in this country can be paid for more
than he does and still contribute to the building
of the country. He has to take it away from somebody else or have a momentary advantage, but
eventually he pays for it.
"If you pay employes more than they earn,
you mus t charge the customer more than the
value of the product or service. The customer
has a right to freedom of choice - and his choice
always will be :-./OT to buy the product - so the
normal end result is unemployment.
"There is one way we can overcome a mass
unemployment situation. If the government will
print more money and give it to the consumers,
the consumers are willing to buy those over-

priced product s and that's exactly what goes
on today. Every time you have a wage increase
you either have unemployment - which is almost
wha: we had recently - or you have inflation.
"And the terrible thing about it is you don't
have to have inflation; it doesn't produce any
more goods.''
Roge rs' work requires considerable travel. He
conduct s seminars for top ma nagement, writes
company reports to stockholders, and recently
was commissioned by a publishing house _to
write a series of 5 2 booklets - one for each week
in the year - to be distribut ed t hroughout a number
of indust ries.
The booklets will be sold as a set and mailed
once a week to executives. They will deal with
such subject s as the roles of different groups
in the economy, in t ernal cost reduction, productivity, and similar facets of American business
life.

Nippersink and Jack Frost get along

THE VILLAGER

Skokie Receives
Traffic Award

by Art H ellyer

Back in 1949 Clara Ann Fowler spent an afternoon on the air with me in Milwaukee. She was
a sweet, unaffected, pleasing I y-plump little gal
from Tulsa who had just captivated the country
with her first hit recording. It was the first of
the multi-voice, by one person, records and the
label told us it was Patti Page singing "Confess."
Yes, Clara Ann Fowler, Patti Page, was the
singing rage, and all those who came in contact
with her fell under her spell. I can recall three
or four different times, when Patti was appearing
at the Towne Room, calling for her in my little
Austin in mid-afternoon. We would drive out to
Wood Veteran Hospital and spend the afternoon
entertaining the GI' s.
As emcee of Patti's radio shows from the
Towne Room, I got to know her quite well, and
Elaine would come down and spend the evening,
and the three of us would chat by the hour
between shows. I remember one time when Eddie
Hubbard, even then a big name here in Chicago,
came up to hear Patti and we all sat around the
bistro until 4: ::w a. m., Eddie and I playing
guitars, and Patti leading the vocalizing.

One evening recently, on TV, I saw a skinny
blonde with her silvery hair piled on top of her
head. She said her name was Patti Page. It
is hard to believe the changes that have come
over this gal in ten years. I saw a pseudosophisticate, a girl from the golden west putting
on eastern airs . Gone zl'ere all the down-to -earth
Oklahoma qualities that made us like her so u•ell.
She's still Patti Page, but she sure isn't Clara
Ann Fowler. I choose to remember her as she
was in 1949, not as she is in 1959.
The same night we saw Lauritz Melchior on
"This Is Your Life". Seeing Mr. Melchior made
me realize that it is the truly great who remain
mo st humble. I can't help but feel that this is
the reason they remain truly great.
"Out in Arizona where the badmen are, a nd the
only thing to guide you is an evening star",
there's a gentleman named Homer (Uncle Dick)
Grigsby. Seems Uncle Dick has ridden the
Arizona ranges for 74 of his 90 years, and he
feels qualified to speak on the subj e ct of
television westerns.

Uncle Dick was recently interviewed by a
reporter from the Arizona Republic, and he had
this to say: "These television programs of today
are a bunch of hokum. These modern writers
would have people believe most of the old-time
range riders were gunslingers and no -goods. We
didn't have t_
ime for crooked or underhanded
shenanigans in those days. We worked from dawn
'til dusk, and most times we were too busy
minding our own b us in e s s. Wby, the only
reason zle carried guns was to shoot snakes or
wild animals, and sometimes kill a boltin' horse
if it got going after we were thrown and still had
one foot caught in the stirrup."
Uncle Dick finished his tirade with this s ta t ement, "The only time I ever saw a gun drawn
was by some greenhorns from back east who
came west filled up with ideas from those novels
written back in Chicago."
So there!

Chief of Police William C.
Griffin of Skokie has received
word from the State Division of
Traffic Safety that pie Skokie
police department has won
honorable mention in the 1958
Inter-city traffic accident improvement program for cities
in the population class of over
50,000. The Chief received an
attractive wall certificate for
outstanding participation 10
the Program.
Rockford, Moline, North Chicago and Lake Forest won
first place in the program in
their respective Illinois population group cities, receiving a
magnetic traffic accident investigation board awarded by
the Allstate Insurance Company of Skokie, co-sponsors
with the state of the program.

'Three Cheers '
For Skokie
Fire Laddies
Dear Sir:
On January 13th at about
5:30 p.m. we called our Fire
Department at 8340 Hamlin to
report we had noticed a smoky
odor in the house for the last
day or so and wondered if it
might be dangerous. Before
we had time to realize what
was happening two fire trucks
and the Captain's car were
here. The men of Engine 2
and Truck 1 - Captain Jaeger,
Lt. Burke, and Firemen Suckow,
Bicknase, Guirsch, Siemsem,
Baumhardt, and Tedschi - entered our home in a most orderly

manner, made an extremely
thorough search, and reported
nothing of a serious nature.
These men were highly
considerate and careful, and
even spread a tarpaulin on the

Town ship Traffic Deaths Take
Sharp Turn Downward 1n '58
lraffic deaths rn '\Jiles
Township have taken a sharp
turn downward, according co
figures released by the , iles
Township Safety Council.
"An improved off i c i a I
program combined with better
citizen support has begun co
pay off," said Leon a rd J.
\ic Fnnis, Jr., spokesman for
the safety council.
"Thirteen persons lost their
lives in traffic in the townshir

"but only three were killed in
traffic last year."
'Jiles showed the greatest
reduction. Eight lives were
lost there in 1957, while 1958
was a deathless year in traffic
for them. ()nly one person died
in traffic in each of che other
villages.
''Even though the total
number of traffic accidents increased lase year," ~lcFnnis
pointed out , "safety officials
believe a good part of the rise
is due to the increase in traffic
within the Township , and also
co better accident reporting.
But even with chis rise in the
total number of traffic accidents,
injuries decreased by nearly

500."

every citizen really supports
our local officials in their
efforts to keep him alive in
traffic, maybe 1959 can be a
deathless traffic year for all
of ~Jiles Township," :-Slcrnnis

Skokie officials to allow construction of a home on a 40-foot
wide lot at 4219 Bobolink Ter.
in the village.
The ruling was entered in
a case filed in August, 1958 ,
by Allan f-lurwitz, the owner ..
The court said the pleadings
on fi le show there is ''no
genuin e issue as to material

facts and that the plaintiff is
entitled to a decree as a matter
of law." Hurwitz was represente d by At torn e y Sheldon
Pelofsky.
In May of last ye a r, the
village zoning board of appeals
denied a variation of zoning
regulations over the lot, loc ate d in a single fa m il y
residential z on e where a
frontage of 55 feet is recµired.
Hurwitz was unable to acquire
at a "reasonable price" additional frontage from adjoining
land to meet the lot area and
width requirements demanded
by the zoning ordinance, the
court said.
