The vote followed recommendations to promote Donald Craker to assistant fire chief amid concerns over fire lines and blockages in the Fourth Ward. A quiet social week included alumni entertainment and a Martha Washington party, while condolences were offered on the death of Mrs May W. Auer at Corry hospital.
