Dr. Bolt had made a visit of inspec- ! tion to Norwalk and pronounced it a city that fully met all requirements and that so far as he knew it was the city that would ba selected. The committee’s choice has finally lain between Norwalk, Mansfield and Middletown, Ohio, and one of thesa three cities is to be chosen.
