Sept 5 , 1 9 4 0 ...Mr. and M r s . Lamont E. Tueller, Mrs. Cora Pace, Mrs. Elbert, M r s . Lillian Corry, Frank Jackson, Tom Mosdell, and William Flannigan met again with the Council to protest against holding softball games at night on the lighted field. Oct. 17, 1940.. .Mrs. Del Vecchic reported that there has been a burial on their Cemetery Lot 4 , Blk 2 3 , Plat 'D'. which was never authorized by her husband or family, and requests that same be removed. Referred to Committee. Feb. 6, 1 9 4 1 . . . T h e following is a letter from the Volunteer Fire Department to the City Council: In the p a s t , Cedar City has been very fortunate on the loss by fire, but it has been quite a percentage on the luck side. And we, the smoke-eaters, with the foregoing in mind, wish to bring pressure on the City dads to the fact that Cedar City really needs a fire house. This to include a den for the boys to meet in to work out their problems for the furtherance of their jobs, and also pan the City Council, when the need be. To meet the requirements of a volunteer department for a city the size of o u r s , we should have twenty members.
