Byrd to investigate rumors in the interest of obtaining a united front by the citizens in behalf of the new boulevard. The letter will be drafted and mailed today. The following new committee assignments were approved: Mrs. S. I. Barnette, Mrs. Kate Stiles, Mrs. Frances Bause and Mrs. Karl Kerr, to the committee on parks and parking; Stanley T.
