Any attempt to delegate gate to such clerk or employes the powers and duties which under the managerial form of government is given to a city manager but which under the commission form must be exercised by the mayor and commisâ€" sioners. Surely Highland Park eitizenship can supply the needed skill and honâ€" esty to prgperly conduct its affairs without delegating all its administraâ€" tive and executive powers and duties to a city manager masquerading as a city clerk.
