Monday night Fire and Po-
lice Commiltee reported that an
pert electrician had inspecied

siren is sounded so Infrequently th

Lhe failures. He suggested th. when
iren is teried on Saturdays, the
switch should be closed only for a
hort time so the bearings wont
gel Loo hot. (The practice now is for
the exchange girls to close the
switch for a period of about 2 sec
onds or less) In the winter time the
siren should be sounded more fre-
quently for shorter intervals W
keep the bearings properly oiled. the
expert said
One Councilman's reaction to this
report was sunumed up in a
ment to the effect that even though
the siren is 23 years old, it has not
| been used much and should be good
for more use
