WOULD SUCCEED o'MARA

Appointment of regular police- man to succeed Patrick J. O'Mara, recently promoted to sergeant. will be the principal item of business at tho police board meeting tomorrow evening. Supernumerary Officer John Griffin was nominated for the post at the last board meeting, but no action has been taken and 1t is khown that practically every su- perrumerary is seeking the place, especially since the request for new policemen was turned down by the board of finance and taxation and vacancies in the regular force be- came the only chance for advance ment.
 A clerk for headquarters is also to be chosen. but while this will be discussed tomorrow evening, Chair man David L. Dunn says that 1t is not certain whether an appointment will be made. Many written and verbal applications have been re- ceived by the board, but only those in writing will be considered.
