CHAUFFEUR OF
POLICE PATROL
CITY Electrician and His As
sistant to Serve.

City Electrician Jay B. FRANKIE and
his assistant, j. c. Jensen, will most
likely serve as drivers of the new
automobile ambulance and patrol II
one is purchased. 1t had been ex-
pected that three uniformed police
men would serve as drivers and re-
serve officers to go out with the pro-
posed machine. AS a result there
has been much discussion among
officers the past few days as to who
should apply and who might secure
the positions. 1t was expected that
there would be three uniformed men
assigned who would work in eight
hour shifts, as ~sergeants now do.
Acting Mayor Garretson and other
members Of the Board of Aldermen
let it be known today that such
would probably not be the case; and
if an auto patrol and ambulance was
purchased it would most likely be
handled by the city electrician and
his assistant In addition to their
other regular duties.
There is no certainty that such an
apparatus will be purchased. Menu
bers Of the council simply promised
Alderman Calvin, chairman OF the
police committee, that they would
vote for advertising for bids for IT.
but did not promise to make Z pur<
chase.
