No practice alert will be held tomorrow night, and probably not until sometime next week, the Civilian Defense Council announced today.
The announcement also stated there would be no meeting of the Defense Council tomorrow.
Mayor H. I. Lucas is still trying to obtain a supply of helmets for all defense personnel and as soon as they are obtained they will be distributed to the members.
The Auxiliary Police Corps met in the City Hall last evening when a number of new volunteers joined. The corps will be increased to 25 members and another meeting will be called in the near future by Walter P. Scott, Chief of the Corps. Arrangements are being made to provide each auxiliary policeman with a night-stick, it was announced.
Official membership cards have arrived, said Director of Civilian Defense R. E. Robertson today, and are now being prepared for delivery to all defense members who have taken their oaths of office.
