In his address to the City Coun-
Gil at the start of the new city ad-
ministration Monday afternoon, June
S. Mayor Henry I. Powell is expect
ed to make several proposals to the
Council relating to city projects and
policies, it was learned today.
The mayor is expected to recon-
mend purchase of new fire truck,
change of ordiances granting special
parking privileges on Garnett street,
the citys main business thorough
fare, and possible reduction in the
discounts granted water consumers
when they pay their bills by the
tenth of the month.
The mayor and city fire officials
have inspected and examined new
fire engine equipment in other To-
calities. Obsolete condition of the two
present motor trucks in the depart
ment demands additional and more
modern equipment, it is held. Gossip
has it that purchase of new truck
would not involve trade for either
of the present trucks, both OF which
would be retained along with the
new machine. A new truck might
also carry modern ladder equipment,
which is sorely lacking at the present
time.
In his address, the mayor is ex-

the fourth wards were all reelected
to the Council. The only change in
the city administration personnel will
be the coming in of B. H. Hicks in
the second ward. He won over d. C.
Loughlin at the May 2 election.
At the June 5 meeting or the re-
gular monthly meeting the fourth
Monday, reports will be received
from several committees named last
Monday to study different proposals
for action by the full board. One of
these is proposed anti-wood shingle
ordinance, and another is the matter
of contract with the Carolina Pow
er & Light Company for current to
operate the new sewage disposal
plant.
City officials, members of the fire,
police and street departments per-
sonnel must also be elected by the
Council for the year beginning July
l. While few changes are anticipated,
it was not known whether the cleo
tions would be held at the June 5
meeting or be deferred until the
fourth Monday regular meeting of
the Council.

pected to touch on parking privileges
granted in some instances to business
concerns on Garnett street, and about
which there has been much COM
plant, especially since the parking
problem has of late become SO much
of a problem. Some think the mayor
will ask repeal of privileges extended
some concerns at the present time.
If the discount of water bills were
reduced from six percent to three
percent, as was limited at the Coun-
Gil meeting last Monday night, about
$1,000 additional revenue annually
would come to the water depart
ment, it is estimated. The mayor is
manager of the water department IN
addition to his other duties. He is un-
derstood to think that additional fed
eral funds could be had for the lay
ing of new water mains if the city
had the money to match the allot-
ments. The halving Of the water dis
count which would be the equivalent
of a slight increase in charges, would
make at least part of the money
desired available.

Frisch Will Manage
Major League Club
Next Season

BOSTON, Sept. % CP.-Frankie
Frisch, the erstwhile Fordham
flash, will be back again in the big
leagues next year as manager.
The former st. Louis Cardinals
manager, who has been broadcasting
accounts of the home games of the
Boston Bees and Boston Red Sox
this year, said today he had job for
next year, but declined to name the
club.
ut Is not for me to make the an
nouncement. I haven't signed yet,
but it looks as if I will have a team
next year." he said. Rumors have
had Frisch lined up to manage
either the Pittsburgh Pirates or the
Chicago Cubs, but so far neither
club has announced its choice.
The Colonial network, which paid
Frisch in the vicinity OF $4,000 to
air the Boston games, announced
earlier today Frisch had not been
re-engaged for 1910 because ito the
best of our knowledge he has been
committed to manage one of the
major league clubs"
Frisch was deposed as manager of
the Cardinals at the conclusion Of
the 1898 season, and Ray Blades
was given his post. A major Lacquer
since his college days, he was an
outstanding second baseman for
both the New York Giants and the
Cardinals.
