started legislation through the mill
Monday evening which will annex
more territory to the village, give
the village additional street lights
and change several streets to one

came after lengthy study by the
particular council committees as
signed to the projects. No oppos-

The new territory to be annexed
was described as property on West

ham Motel. A unanimous vote was
given the motion that it be given a
first reading.

Complicating the local picture
was the system wide walkout

plus the Western Electric strike
which affects 45 states and the
