of the meeting the mayor said he be lieved that as some of the new mem bers were working nights itwould not be fair to penalize them if they were unable to attend a meeting for this reason a motion to

the penalty then carried all voting for it except or gibbons the mayor said that he thought or gibbons was trying to embarrass the new members by bring ing up such a question at the first meeting and
