DAYLIGHT
SCHEDULES
DEFEATED

With but very little debate and
plenty of decision, the city council
voted unanimously to turn down the
petition of local citizens to set the
clocks ahead an hour as petitioned
in the proposed daylight saving plan.
The petition had been circulated by
representatives Of the Chamber of
Commerce on the request of several
local people who believed that the
plan would be beneficial to the city
of Wisconsin Rapids. Several citi-
zens present urged the aldermen not
to grant the petition and some of the
city fathers themselves thought the
sun was better judge of time than
any man made schedule.
