TWO QUIT PARK BOARD; MAYOR IN COMPLETE SWAY Johnson, Manly Take Rap at Mayor in Submitting Resignations. Mayor Duvall,, on his return to Indianapolis from St. Louis SiTnday, will find himself in thorough control of the city park board and faced with the problem of choosing successors to Emsley W. Johnson and Frank P. Manly, who resigned Thursday. Resignation of the two park commissioners ends the sucessful fight Duvall has made to oust hold-over . Shank administration members. John I E. Milnor, president, is the only member who served before Duvall took office, but he has adhered to the mayor’s program during the long contest. There is‘some question as to the status of Clarence I. Baker, appointed by Mayor Duvall when the chief executive tried to oust Johnson forcibly from the board a few months ago. A court suit by Johnson prevented Baker from succeeding him. Wants Invitation Baker today said he had no intention of attending the next board meeting unless he was invited by Mayor Duvall. , If Baker’s invitation still hold3 ' good, Duvall must select a DemoJerat to succeed Manly. The other 1 iemocratic board member is Frank Driver, brother-in-law of the mayor. In a letter to Duvall. Johnson and Manly explained their resignations, as follows: L “Your determination to dominate the actions of the park board and control its members is , not in harmony with our ideas of the law governing the creation of the park board. Since it has been determined that you have the power to remove members of the board at* your will, and you have arbitrarily assumed control of the board, we feel that we can no longer usefully serve the city by remaining on the board.” Figfit Re-Routing The two board members lost at the board meeting Thursday in a last stand to obtain original routing of Kessler Blvd., the subject of many charges against the old board by Mayor Duvall. At the same time it was revealed at the meeting that Duvall and friendly board members plan to change the route of the boulevard, particularly from Keystone Ave. to the Allisonville Rd. The route the administration has in mind is said to be considerably north of Fifty-Ninth St., the present location. Angling north shortly before reaching Spring Mill Rd., the k plan is to go around Holliday Park r and cross White River at SixtyFourth St., and hence due east through the main street in Broad,Ripple 4 it is said. Mayor Duvall lives less than a block from Sixty-Second St. BICYCLE RIDER IS HURT Police Hunt Driver Who Failed to Stop After Crash.
