Schaffner, leaving as councilman after four years in office, went through with his plan to hold his inauguration as city treasurer in the downstairs rotunda at 9 :30 a.m., a half, hour before the regular proceedings in the council chamber.

Schiding and most of the other city officials and workers who have been at city hall for the past four years, the ceremony was little more than a necessary formality.

Shadle Becomes County Judge The board adopted a proposal of Commissioner Harry C. Busser calling for all three commissioners to 9pend the full day at the courthouse on Mondays and Thursdays when regular meetings are held.

Normally, business is completed before noon. The commissioners will make arrangements for at least one of their body to be in 'the courthouse on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays. And each commissioner will 'alternate at spending Saturday mornings on the job. Commenting on the arrangement, Busser said: "This does not preclude the absence of any commissioner on other days but does assure to the public the availability of at least one commissioner on any day of the week and will, I make available to them the service to which they (the public) are entitled." Busser said in prefacing his proposal: "During the pasit four years, in my earnest desire to expedite completion of the many projects and activities, authorized and initiated (Continued on.

Lind was voted $1,000 a year to serve as secretary of the newly-created retirement board. But for the -majority of county employes, no increases are imminent for 1960. All but three of the elected officials are enjoying substantial pay hikes of at least $2,000 a year, thanks to legislative action last year. The board increased Leppo's salary from $5,600 a year to $7,000. The raise, according to Commissioner Harry C.

Busser, was given because of "additional duties" placed on Leppo. Among them is the assignment as coordinator of IBM activities. The legislature last year set the controller's salary at $9,300 but the $2,000 increase does not apply to incumbents such as Lind who are finishing a term. Likewise, Recorder of Deeds Luther H. Yohe, who now receives $7,300, and District Attorney Frank Boyle, who now is paid $8,000, can't njoy $2,000 increases for their respective offices during their present terms.

The only other employes under the jurisdiction of the commissioners to get a raise was IBM supervisor Robert Stoner whose pay goes from $4,200 to $5,000. Salaries of three deputies of Clerk of Courts Gerald H. Bowman were raised as follows Ethel Miller from $3,900 to Anne Ault from $2,800 to and Ruth Gentzler from $3,000 to $3,200.
