hire a fulltime paid Fire Department person. This also is to checked out.
(3) Mr. Arnold presented two methods of handling the swimming pool passes
for Council consideration. One method would be to have individual passes
for each member of the family, with cross-reference card files at the swim-
ming pool gate. The other method would be to eliminate pass cards entirely,
and have the patron identify themselves at the gate either by name or number
which could be checked on the cards, and having them sign a roster. It
was Council concensus to use the signature roster method and not issued
individual passes.
