No primary election here this March due to insufficient candidates
Twenty five years ago city officials announced no primary election would be held on March 18 because filings for elective offices were too few. Earlier, Chanute fishermen directed by W F Piggott seized a large haul at Santa Fe Reservoir, aided by a 150 foot net, with about 15 men needed to beach the catch after some fish were speared. Two youths were arrested for gigging fish and authorities urged action against such fishing.
