 SWA AP COUNCIL SEATS
Will Resign and Be Re- elected Each Taking
 Others Place

Councilmen Elias T. Ringrose and stephen A. Lynch, both democrats, will present their resignations at a meeting of the comon council short )y. and then he reelected. Ringrose who now represents the fifth ward will become a sixth ward councilman and Lynch, who was elected by the sixth ward will assume a seat as a member of the fifth ward delegation.
 The political change. which Is one Of the most unusual In the common councils history comes about as a result of the councilmen having changed their places of residence since their election.
 As result Of this shifting Of council members. the city clerk s records will show two resignations with the names of those having re- signed still In the active membership list and with no changes In the councils personnel.
 Although Messrs. Ringrose and Lynch will lose no meeting of the council as a result of their change in places, their membership In the council cannot be called as "contin- uous service" and when they change they will be regarded as filling out uncxpired terms. The terms of both expire next spring, but if either had an additional year to serve, his suc- cessor, by charter requirement would cgain be obliged to go before the electors despite that fact.
