1a,3~. Atty. He didn't think the number of feet was what was meant -- he Christen- contended it was the principle of others rezoning an owner's son property. Atty. Earl The Village has the authority to rezone as per the petition be- Anderson fore it tonight. The case mentioned above applied only when it involved an area within 100 feet, and in a city of the first class. A situation such as the present is entirely different.
