Neill have announced the approval
of $90,000 designated for use in
constructing a new National Guard
armory. The bill, alloting the
money from state funds, was sign
ed by Gov. Ralph Brooks last
week.
Since O’Neill is a split type unit,
with part of the unit being located
in Wayne, O’Neill does not qualify
for federal funds. The unit is now
using the hasement in the Shel
hamer building.
Got. Don Penterman, the as
sistant Adjutant General of the
Slate of Nebraska, indicated that
he and possibly other representa
tives will be in O’Neill the first
part of July to meet with Guard
officials, members of the Chamber
of Commerce and the City Council
members for detail planning.
Civic leaders have expressed the
hope that O'Neill could add more
money to the state money and
erect a building which could be
used for purposes other than
National Guard training also.
The building site will be on the
tract originally designated for the
National Guard, located in north
O'Neill.
