our present neighborhoods stable.
“All important in maintaining
our city’s economic climate is the
attraction of new payrolls into
our economy, and local places for
local people to be employed. The
assessed property valuation of new
industry brings into our city a
further ’safe guard’ in maintaining
Carrollton as an economical plfce
in which to live. We can be prc)ud
of the caliber and appearance j of
our local industries, which employ
many, many of our local residents.
The Chamber needs the ener-
gies of everyone in Carrollton to
carry out its programs of com-
munity betterment,’’ the Chamber
president emphasized, "and I hope
■those, who 'believe in the future
of this city’ will visit our Chamber

this week that Carrollton mer-
chants have been giving free tic-
kets to shoppers for the May 8
Dallas Ranger baseball game.
The game, to be played at Bur-
nett Field, will pit the Rangers
against Indianapolis, another Paci-

This joint Chamber - Jaycees

was worked out through special
arrangements with Dallas Rangers’
Vice-president Lamar Hunt and
General Manager Jon Ferraris,
Lowrey related. Arrangements
also included the designation of
May 8 as “Carrollton Day” at
Burnett Field.
Ranger official Lamar Hunt ex-

stadium should begin construction
within about 40 days.
“This is an important step to-
ward an eventual major league
franchise, which is our major aim,”
