Had it not been for Councilman
Huber last night the grounds and

determined upon a trip around the
local circuit. But after II had been
determined the committee became
overwhelmed with business.
Mr. Huber stated that he represent
ed circus company which il head
ing this way, and no wanted the COM
mittee to give the show chance to
put UP It's tents on the Byrd park
property.
City Engineer Boiling said the en-
closure which Mr.. Huber wanted had
been laid out in baseball diamonds
and had been turfed nicely, and
should not be used for circus.
we all know that the remains of
a circus would be disastrous to the
park" said MIR. Boiling. and from
my standpoint / hope the committee
will consider this proposition fully
before taking action,
Upon motion of Mr.. Tmlauf the COM
mittee decided to take a, trip to Byrd
park and look the ground over. after
which ii might be in better condition
to act upon the request of Mr.. HUI
Der.
Mr. Huber explained that he was
simply representing the Burton sys-
tenn in the matter and that the sys-
tenn had no personal interest In the
proposition except to ask the COM
mittee at the request of the represen-
tatiye OF the circus company. He
said the company would give q bond
holding them responsible for PLACING
the grounds In as good condition as
they were before.
Following this. there were a num-
Der of other matters which the com
mittee will look into upon their tom
of inspection. which will be held or
