After the investigations were made another -committee for the purpose of purchasing snow-removing equipment superseded the original committee and acted upon its recommendations In purchasing 100 small tank-type tractors, 50 largt crawler-type tractors, abig fleet of trucks as well as plow equipment. The contract for the 100 small tractors was awarded to the Cleve land Tractor company of Cleveland, Ohio, and the machines will he equip ped with winter .tracts, two seated cabs and sirens.
