College Hill area on National Register
Work begun July 1979 by the local Historical Society, culminated successfully this week when property owners in the College Hill Historic District received letters saying that their property had been placed on the National Register of Historic Places.
The College Hill Historic District is recognized as possessing unusual significance to the history of Tennessee. Beyond this, inclusion in the National Register assures that the State Historical Commission will review all federal projects to determine any effect they may have on the property. Further, all National Register sites are eligible for federal preservation grants-in-aid administered by the State Historical Commission.
Not every home in the area is included. Those whose homes are included have received letters to that effect. After being accepted by the State, the District project was forwarded to Washington, D.C. where the final approval was made.
Silverstein replaces Felsenthal as ReaderMorton Felsenthal retired
as lay reader for Temple Adas Israel September 10 with Fred Silverstein Jr. succeeding him. At the service, Mr. Silverstein told the group he was happy to
carry on in the footsteps of his great-grandfather, Emil Tamm. Mr. Tamm was lay reader from 1867 to 1907.
Mr. Silverstein said, “It is a unique heritage that I feel, the roots being found planted deeply in Judaism, and in America and in Brownsville. Many years and much sacrifice and great toil support it.”

28 teachers in the system who are interested in teaching the twice a week classes to adults who want to continue their secondary level education.

Committee hopes Blues week brings “green” to
festivalSuccessful from nearly
every measurement, last week’s 2000 Blues Festival
is under the microscope this week. Preliminary figures indicate the festival made a profit this year, a fact that may be due to the new I-40, exit 56 site. Gate admission fees meant the committee could offset costs not covered by sponsorships.
Total estimated attendance for Friday, Saturday and Sunday is between 3,000 and 5,000 according to the early figures. The West Tennessee Delta Heritage Center also reported a large number of visitors Friday and Saturday.

Fishing at Oneal Lake has become extremely popular during special events held for the elderly, youth and anglers with disabilities. The lake will be open for fishing from the bank or piers only.
Wildlife observation on the refuge is very popular with several thousand visitors annually.
