HGHT OVER CITY HALL SITE NOW ON

Ligonier citizens who are interested in public matters are likely to see something worth while. if they attend the next meehing of the e¢ity council to be held Tuesday eveving. ’ Information has. been given, from the best source, that a real tight will %be waged between the forces that want to see the city hall Tocated some : where away from the hitch racks and ‘those who feel that the location al--ready selected is the only proper one. ‘Mayor Bruce Schutt is expecting to see the whole matter settled at the coming meeting and those who have mixed among the interested parties feel sure that the fight will be won by the faction that is seeking to retain the present proposed site. = For the benefit of those . who have not been informed of:the situation, it may be stated that there is a general belief on the part of many business men that if the change is made to some other location, it will be ulti ‘mately result in the removal of the hitch "racks to some more remote place and, by that, have some eﬂ"ect{ on business in some localities. st While nothing definite'can be pro-: misfd at this time, it is expected that finally the city hall will be located on the spot originally chosen.
