COMMERCIAL AND MAIN STREET
BUSINESSMEN REMEMBER BY-PASS
There’s a war brewing in Nevada City. No gunfire, bombs, or
napalm, but. man, is there operation activity. The merchants of
Commercial and Main (and remember the Maine) will tell you that
they had been slighted when the Big Parade of the last 4th of July
by-passed Commercial Street, going down Broad, bringing all the
potential paying customers to the park. And that is not exactly al!
Commercial and Main Streeters feel that Nevada City should get
away from behind the old eight ball and start a rea! ba!! rolling,
making, fr instance, Grass Valley and Rough and Ready sit up
and take notice that at least, if nothing else, the Nevada County
Courthouse is in Nevada City, and Nevada City is the county seat

Local People To
Be Featured
Another feature will add to
the local color of the NUGGET.
It will deal with personalities once familiar to the people
of Nevada City. Grass Valley
and other Sierra Nevada communities. So many colorful
characters have come and gone
in this part of California that
publishers have decided to revive some of their memories.
Gerald Wallace, who knew
many of those who helped to
make history here in his youth,
will edit the new series.
