PLAN RE-PASSAGE
OF BUILDING CODE
AT NEXT MEETING
Old Ordinance to Become Eff
fective After Council SEES
sion, According to Plans.

Plans have been completed to
make the building code ordinance.
adopted Aug. %, 1921. effective fol-
lowing the next regular meeting Of
the city council by re-passage of the
measure.
The ordinance is not effective at
this time because Of the discovery
that Mayor Carson had never signed
the ordinance and the repeal clause
was omitted from publication, al
though it appeared in the News
Times exactly as the copy presented
by the clerk read. The appeal clause
was also omitted from the pamph-
lets printed by the Labor Publishing
Co, and this error was corrected by
separate sheet insertions in the
pamphlet.
The approximate cost Of legal pub
lication for the measure was $4,000
but contrary to the impression
gained by some citizens. this amount
is not wasted and the only step nee
essary is merely a matter of re-
passing the measure at the next
council meeting to make II sound as
any city law. This because. as
pointed out by City Atty. Hammond,
the state law provides that if a city
intends TO publish an ordinance~in
pamphlet form, that form shall be
considered legal publication. Such
publication has already been made
and the adoption OF the measure as
it stands at present, by the council,
and the signature Of Mayor Seebirt,
is the only action necessary to dis
pose of the matter and leave the
measure in legal form on the city
records.

authorized a force with slip scrapers

Crumstown road. On each Of these

Highways Blocked.
The Dixie road and Lincoln high
way are reported 10 be partially
blocked. These are state roads over
which the county has no jurisdiction,
so the attention of the department
is being first conferred on the county
unit highways.
The Dixie highway north Is to re
ceive attention soon, Mr.. Mangus de-
clared. He has repeated requests
from people living just beyond the
state line north TO send his force in
to that territory. but told them the
county had enough troubles Of its
own without being burdened by
those of Michigan. He said, how
ever. that he would be glad TO help
out there once the county roads
were cleared.
A peculiar condition existing on
the county roads for a March storm
was the tendency Of the roads 20
drift I'm once they had been cleared.
Constant supervision and continual
shoveling are necessary TO keep the
highways passable.

Colby Is sending a picked team
across the country which will meet
eight teams on this question. The
team s composed of George Wolsten-
holme, a senior: Clyde Russell, a
senior; Leonard Mayo, a senior, and
Forest Royal. a junior. Each OF
these men has had much experience
in preparatory and intercollegiate de-
batting. Wolstenholme is perhaps
the best of the group. but Russell has
almost as good a record n forensics.
The latter is president tot the senior
class and of the Student Council
which corresponds TO the S. A G. at
Notre Dame. Mayo and Royal are
prominent both in debating and in
athle tics.
ISIS AAOtdtAN Oihbcs
Colby has long enjoyed an enviable
reputation among eastern schools in
debating. IL was undefeated in its
eastern debates this year. An inter
esting fact in connection with its
country trip is that the Water
Vile Rotary club is contributing a
large part Of the money necessary to
finance IT. As the team will be ac-
compauied by Prof. II. G. Libby,
head of the department Of public
speaking. and himself a ROtarian, il
is the plan for the team to visit as
many Of the Rotary clubs on the
lire of travel as possible. David l..
Guilfoyle. president Of the South
Bend Rotary club. viii preside at the
debate with Notre Dame.
This debate will probably end the
season for Notre Dame. as no an
swer has been receievd TO the chal-
lenees sent out several weeks ago.
Notre Dame tied for second place in
the Indiana State Debating League,
having won three and lost one con
test. II Colby can be defeated, the
season will be considered successful.
Two or the judges who Will decide
the debate have already been Sc
cured. They are Loggerquist of
Northwestern and Frazier Of Indiana
university.
