FIGHT FOR OFFICE OF
ASSISTANT FIRE CHIEF

There is a merry fight on for the
otfice of assistant chief of the Airing
ton companies of the Kearny fire de-
partment. The contenders are the
present incumbent. William Schla-
witz and Charles Duggan. The
former is member of Truck oCm-
pany No. l, while the latter is af-
filiated with Hose Company No. 3.
1t appears Duggan has received the
endorsement of his own company
and his friends declare he received
more votes in the truck company
than did SchlawitS. but he was not
accorded the Endorsement. Schlawitz
who, IL is said, has been a member
OF the department for about six years,
has served two terms as assistant
chief Duggan has been connected
with the department for thirteen
years.
The appointments of chief and his
assistantsg arc made by the Town
Council and generally on the recon-
mendation OF the chief 1t is ex-
pected some conclusion viii be ar
rived at soon. There is probability
Sohinwitz will withdraw.
