With the deadline for national

tarily. seven local youths this
week signed as members of Port
Clinton's Ohio National Guard

BILE for training when the draft

Will BE
Arrested OR FINED
Volunteer Policemen To Have
Authority To Arrest At
Fires, Emergencies

Backed by strong complaints
from fremen, policemen and fire
victims, members of the village
council Tuesday night announced
plans to crack down on motorists
and pedestrians who hamper fire.
men by getting too close to fires.
In the future, drivers who park
their cars too close to building
on fire, or who insist on crowding
close to the building will be liable
to arrest and fines.
Several years ago an ordinance
was approved which legalizes such
arrests and fines, but lack of
teeth" in the order kept officials
from cracking down.
At the Primrose Beauty shop
Thursday, motorists continually
drove across the fire hose in an
alley. At the Casperson fire Sun
day, spectators (who had no busi-
ness being there except to salts
fy their curiosity) crowded so
close to the house that Mr.. Cas-
persons garden was ruined under
trampling feet.
Monday afternoon, Patrolman
Donald Everett was stationed at
the entrance of the Holly road to
keep autos from being driven
down the narrow lane to the Short
house. Only cars driven by fire.
men were permitted entrance.
Councilmen argue that should
spectators be injured by a burst
ing fire hose or other city-owned
equipment, the city probably
would be responsible.
Councilman Paul Schmitt and
Carl Waggoner and Police Chief
Jack Shelter recommended that
the auxiliary policemen be author
lied to attend fires and to have
the authority to arrest anyone who
fails to comply with the existing
ordinance.
The plan will be studied and
the auxiliary police asked to help,
so that they can be sworn in by
Mayor Carl Becker within two
weeks. These auxiliary policemen
serve without compensation, and
after they are sworn in, they will
have the power to arrest persons
at fires and other emergencies.
Leo Snyder is chief of the aux
iliary policemen, who serve under
direction of Police Chief Jack
Shelter. The police chief COM
mended the men for their excell-
ent aid, and stated that he felt
certain the special policemen
would gladly agree to assist in
overcoming this hazard.

 Dr. Morse added that the ''uncon- genial" atmosphere is making it increasingly difficult for the gov ernment to get qualified people to work on atomic projects.
