FORMER CHIEF
UNDECIDED ON
FUTURE ACTION

Whether former police chief
George f. Lemaster will sue
the city for breach of con-
tract, since the Court of APP
peals Monday denied his petit
tion for a writ of mandamus
asking reinstatement as chief of
police here, appeared to be the
latest development today in the
affair.
In denying the petition, the 9th
District Court of Appeals at Toledo
Monday explained that its move
was made because he had "ade-
quate remedy at law. Judges Lehr
Fess, Amos L. Conn and Clyde L.
Deeds were quoted as saying that
this means that if Mr.. Lemaster
considers he had a contract, he
can sue the city for breach of con-
tract.
The other possibility is that the
Court of Appeals ruling, on which
no written opinion was handed
down, can be carried on up to the
Supreme Court. In Detroit WedneS-
day, Mr.. Lemaster said he has as
yet made no decision what action
to take.
Mr.. Lemaster filed the writ Dec.
9 following his dismissal on Nov.
81 by Mayor Jeremy He had been
hired Sept. Is by Mayor Jeremy.
Mr.. Lemaster contends he was
given a provisional 6-month ap-
/, pointment as chief and that the
only way he could be removed was
through the filing of formal
charges and hearing.
Mayor Jeremy said Wednesday
he has not yet contacted the Civil
Service Commission regarding ar
exam for new police chief A
patrolman's exam and a captain
exam is scheduled for next Monda.

members decline to commit them

ment said.
