Of the 52 residents, 27 had signed as in favor of the change of name, 6 were against it and . the others were nonâ€"committal, There was considerable discussion regardâ€" ing this matter, but the final decision was to file the petition and take no action for the present time. As exâ€" pressed bÂ¥ Mayor F. W.
