JOsT RET|RES
FROM CONTEST
William Langan to Run for
End Assistant Fire Chief
in His Place.

At recent meeting Of the Liberty
Hook and Ladder company, Bernard
Jost announced his retirement from .
the race for second assistant chief
of the Perth Amboy fire department
and William Langan, another menu
Der of this company was chosen by
the Liberties to represent that COM
pany in the race. This change. 1t Is
believed, will not materially affect
the race, inasmuch as there are still
four men in the running.
Rudolph Schuck, the Humane
fire company candidate, who was
defeated by Andrew Babe" Ander-
SON for the position last year. Johnf
Campbell of the Washington Hos2|
& Chemical company. and Pete
Larson OF the Eagle Hose and Chem
ical company, are the other thr'
candidates in this race. The eleey
tion will be held, as usual, the secsv
ond Tuesday in May.
The coming of firehouse for the
Humane company, and the fact that
he was defeated last year, may mean
something to Schuck at the coming
election, but Larson and Campbell
appear to be the real runners, and
it is likely that as election day ap-
proaches, the race will center about
these two candidates. It Is not like.
ly that the field will be increased.
