City Council Debates Dudley Street Case and Printing Bid
Amid a long meeting the council debated whether to award city printing to the Gazette, with Stuckmyer opposing and Darnell leading the majority. A motion to extend time failed, a late clock crisis spurred interruptions, and the session adjourned after marked contention. The Dudley company issue prompted protests from Madison area residents and a call to halt track laying. Public finance details showed July expenditures and a remaining balance, with loans authorized for August and September.
