TROLLEY PACT
is SIGNED FOR
2O-YEAR Term
South Side Representative
Protests; Agreement
Goes to Mayor.

Despite the protest of a represent
alive of the South Side Civic Club,
the Works Board today signed a 30
year franchise agreement with the
Indianapolis Railways for the OPP
Grafton of trackless trolleys.
The contract Immediately was
sent to Mayor Kern for his approval
and ratification one week from to-
night at a City Council meeting.
The contract then is to go to the
Public Service Commission for final
approval.
Robert K. Eby, Works Board vice
president; Louis E. Brandt, and
Maurice E. Tenant, board members,
signed the contract for the city.
Chase Signs for Company
The street car company signed
the contract through it's president,
Charles w. Chase, and Secretary L.
T. Hixson.
The contract call for the COM
pany to pay the city $32476 year
for each mile of street used by the
trackless trolleys. 1t gives the
company the right to consolidate it's
Lincoln and Minnetosa-st lines.
The trackless cars now are oper-
ated over approximately 43 miles of
streets, but by the end of the year
1T is forecast, 493 miles will be COW
cred.
j. Ed Burk of the Fountain Square
Merchants Association and the util-
tiles committee of the South Side
Civic Club opposed the contract.
Asks Greater Study
He charged the contract failed to
list streets upon which the trolleys
could run and that additions to or
abandonments of lines could be
made without consent of the city.
He declared a more thorough
study" of the contract should be
conducted and declared that no pro-
vision was made for paying cost of
repaving after removal of car rails.
Mr.. Eby said the streets over
which the trolleys could run were
named and that no additions could
be made without the city's permis-
sion. He said that although the
city could compel the street car
company to take rails out, it could
not compel the company to fix up
the street. Mr.. Eby, however,
pointed out that the salvage of the
rails by the city would pay for the
repaving
Makes Safety Protest
Mr.. Burk also objected to the fact
that the contract, he said, did not
carry safety clauses for trolley rid
ers.
Mr.. Chase said traffic accidents
had been fewer since introduction of
trackleSs trolleys.
Mr.. Burk pointed out that the
contract did not specify the number
of miles of trackless trolley lines to
be operated. Mr.. Eby said the street
railway company would report year.
ly on July the number of miles
operated.

Let's compare the number Of
Galleries used In your favorite &C
tivities with the Galleries supplied
in common foods. Walking at the
rate of two and one-half miles an
hour, a person weighing 100
pounds will burn in one hour APP
proximately 1856 calories, which
amount could be offset by eating
a handful of peanuts. half q dough
nut, or two extra pats Of butter.
Even q brisk walk OF three ana
three-fourtShs miles an hour burns
only $50 Galleries, which Is prob
ably fewer calories than contained
in the average sandwich.
You may feel that Is holes Of

of the most devious game you

could be true, but figures always

The individuals who can reduce

group that are only slightly over

A mere 10 pounds Of excess can
be removed by exercise. In fact,
from tho standpoint of both health
and figure, that is the best way
to do it.
But with 20 or more pounds Of
overweight the average person
lacks time, persistence and endur.

BY combining diet with exercise
in the best regulated program, a
20-pound, loss can be established
over q period of three months.
This fixes loss rate Of approx
mately, Ia pounds per week. This
steady loss may be stabilized from
week to week, and is likely to be
permanent.
This is not an argument against
exercise-far from it!-for every
reducing program should include
regular and consistent exercise.
It's value is not in the utilization
of Galleries, but. rather, in the tom
