Is Meeting of Directors o.
West Virginia Automo
bile Association.

Lack of quorum caused the
scheduled meeting Of the directors Of
the West Virginia Automobile Assoc
iation in this city Thursday to be
called of.
The meeting was scheduled for 10
o'clock in the morning in the parlors
Of the Waldo hotel. However, there
was no quorum present at this hour
and the arrival of vice President
Joseph c. Russell. of Parkersburg,
was expected hourly. His presence
would have made quorum and those
present awaited his arrival. expecting
to hold the meeting in the afternoon.
He failed to arrive and the meeting
was called on.
Those directors of the association
Who were present were taken for
drives over the roads leading into the
city and an praised the good condI-
tion of the roads in this vicinity,
though they were inclined to think
that a local automobile club would be
a great factor in having them further
improved.
The directors of the association
have not given up hope of organizing
an association in the city, and they
plan to return here at some future
date, when the enthusiasm may be a
little more in evidence than it was
yesterday.
