As pastor of the First Reformed Church of Newark, he said he came to realize that if he couldn’t get the young people to church, he’d have to get the church to the young people. He established a luncheonette, called “Bill’s Rough Riders”, ac- cross the street from Newark’s West Side High School. An article in the June 13, 1966, New York Times said, “It is po sitioned and operated to lure young people. When a youth walks in and orders a cheeseburger, he may wind up in a discussion W. D.

The petition states that the ef fect of the proposed schedule of toll rates is to change the pro cedure for rounding all the charge for additional minutes of toll time used after the initial mini mum period. If the charge for an additional minute after the initial period constitutes a frac tion of a nickel, such charge un der the present tariff is rounded to the next lowest nickel. The proposed change would be to round off charges for additional minutes to the next lowest penny. This procedure would result in the charge for additional minutes being more precisely stated as a correct percentage of the initial period charge. The petition states that, his torically, the procedure of round ing to the next lowest nickel made for more convenient and practicable bookkeeping and bill ing, however, with computeriza tion it is now no more difficult to round the toll charge to the next lowest penny than it is to round to the next lowest nickel. The petition further states that the proposed schedule will pro duce estimated additional gross annual revenues of $657,000 for the Company, which amount after applicable income taxes will net the Company approximately $288,000. This amount will, to a small degree, help to offset the pressures of increased expenses, taxes, and heavy construction ex penditures at prevailing high cost levels. A public hearing in the above entitled matter will be held in the Commission’s office, 704 Owen Building, 1321 Lady Street, Columbia, South Carolina, per sons will be given an opportuni ty to be heard.
