The Hoard r >J Appeals Of the
Town of Barnstable on Tuesday
granted the petition of John J.
Pendergast to erect duplex col-
lages on 12 lots on the southeast
erly end of Cralgvllle Bench Head.
The original petition to the board
was Bled on September 211 nnd
hearings were postponed from Oct.
HI tO 81, after which the matter
was taken under advisement by
the board. The lots in question
vary from id. (Km to 12,415 BQuare
feet in area.
The Hoard of Appeals said In an-
nouncing the granting ol the
petition.
"This petition is similar lo a
number of others proponed to the
Hoard. It Is argued Hint the resi-
dence 11 1 area along Cralgv llle
Heach Road, on both sides, fro m
West llynnnlsporl lo the Residence
H I /one al Long Heach Itoad , Is
hull! up by clubs , businesses, and
duplex rental units; that there i-i
not a single residence along the
mile-long section; that the peti-
tioner's land Is so near to the
high-wate r level , ami so close lo
thriving summer businesses, thai
no single-residence use is practi-
cal or even leasonable; that the
allowance of the petition would
serve (,, bring (his valuable und
unused land Into a residential
usage which conforms lo the loiw
established usage along the busy
publi c way. and avoid a financial
hardship.
"A local organisation was
heavily in Opposition, Dfl expressed
In letters and forms; a group of
residents In the adjoining area
were represented by counsel, .1
Blake Thaxfer , Jr., and the pnll-
tioner was represented by Attorney
Charles C Cunningham. Both coun-
sel argued on Hie law and tftOtS
as applicable lo the situation. (An
apparent Inconsistency in the
ground plans submitted was ex
plai ned by I he surveyor , who sub
milled a report thereon lo the
ami court; the lot areas shown on
Hie Inter plan appear lo hi' cor

erroneous.)
"in considering the matter, a

The mild November weather on (' ape Cod hus done nothing
for the program set for the Kenned y Memorial Skating Rink
¦
at HyanniSi
Mild weather , moderately warm nights and daytime sun
do absolutely nothing to hel p make ice in an open air fink .
Although the official opening of the Kenned y Memorial
Kink had been set for Friday, November 21, the management
found it impossible to form ice which would hold for more hiin
a few hours.
The mild weather conditions combined with I rouble with
(he compressor made it necessary to call off the official opening
sad hope for more seasonable weather conditions in another
week.
This all seemed to point up the fact that the town must do
something to protect the ice surface from the hoi rays of the
sun.
Of course if the town of Barnstable were to do the right
thine;, the entire operation should be shielded from all elements ,
„im and mild weather both. At some times during the winter
mouths, the weather becomes so mild that ice anywhere but
indoors will melt. This would require an outside wall and roof
as well.
Perhaps temporarily the rink could be roofed over , 1 Allied
