She alleged that Mr. McLaughlin is on no civil service list for appointment to a position which includes the duties she said he is now performing at the park.

She asked for a court order directing the Civil service commission, composed of William Allen Page, Arthur R. VanGorden and J. Victor Schad, to certify herself for the appointment, to direct Mr. Page to appoint her and to certify the payroll containing her name. She also demanded that whatever salary she may lose during the pendency of the show cause action be restored to her.

Mrs. Neil said in her petition that she usually had been employed at the park from Memorial Day to Labor Day, a period of approximately 100 days and received $3.50 a day. Mrs. Short also contended she passed a Civil Service examination for the job as South Side park attendant in 1937, placing fourth, and had served there 100 days a year at $3.50 a day since 1937.

Both plaintiffs are represented by Donald W. Kramer. Date for a return on the show cause orders is pending.

Graham, who has nursed for a long time the desire to form a corps in his outfit, the men have developed into a competent and pleasing addition to camp life, according to the camp public relations officer.
