VOLUNTEER FIREMEN
ELECT NEW OFFICERS
The Volunteer Fire Department
met last evening and elected new
officers who are: A1 Doyle, presi
dent; Chuck Lewis, vice president
and Bob Lewis, secretary.
One of the problems discussed
at the meeting was the crowding
in of curious people including
many children at fires and hin
dering the firemen. As the vol
unteer firemen number only 17
members and each has a desig
nated job. some new volunteers
or special details will have to be
assigned to hold back the crowds
at fires.
