POLLIss PLACES
SCHOOL ROOMS
The Board Of Civil Authority
Took No Action Beyond
Accepting Communication

| Revision of the checklists to be used
at the primary election Tuesday was
completed by the board of civil authority
at meeting in the city court room last
| evening. Ten members of the board
were present and Alderman A. NJ. Rossi
acted as chairman. Sixteen changes were
made at the two meetings of the board,
the first session having been held last
week. As the appearances were so few
in number, it is probable that the city
viii not be put to the expense Of having
new checklists, as the names to be trans
ferred from one ward to another and the
new names will be inserted with a pen.
In communication addressed to the
city clerk, who was requested to bring the
matter before the board the school COM
mission took a decided stand against per
sons infected with contagious diseases to
serve as ward officers where the school
houses are used for polling places. In
the letter, signed by Harvey Z. Averill,
secretary of the board, unanimity of
opinion was represented in a. request that
persons infected with tuberculosis and
other contagious diseases" be inhibited
from serving in schoolhouse polling
places on account of the danger of infec
tion among school children. No action
was taken by the board beyond vote
to accept the communication. The ward
officers were elected for the year at a
meeting of the board of civil authority
just prior to the March election and with
one or two exceptions where substitu
tions were made necessary by removals,
the officers who served March will re-
main in office until next March, as they
are elected for the year.
