Grabe as borough treasurer but tabled the resignation of John W. Mahaley, secretary-solicitor, until tomorrow night, pending further investigation. Mr. Mahaley had indicated he would accept the job again if his salary were increased about $1,000 per year. Carl H. Roberts, Charles Updegraff and John Karr were sworn in by burgess Mort. W. Levinson, who conducted the meeting prior to the election of James L. Elliott as president for the next two years. Mr. Elliott was in charge of the balance of the meeting which lasted from 8:00 o'clock until about 10:30. Mr. Grabe, who. for years has served as trustee of the Schildeberger Estate as well as borough treasurer, will receive the same salary for the latter position $125 per year. He reluctantly agreed to continue as trustee of the estate after he had been assured that the borough will attempt to dispose of the two houses owned by the estate during this year. Street commissioner Oliver Watson was re-appointed by the new council at the same salary, although he had requested an increase for himself and other borough street employes. Council members asked for time to study the budget before any salary or wage increases are granted. It was also decided by the newly-organized borough governing body that regular meetings will be held the first Monday of each month at 7:30 in the hose rooms. Committees named by Mr. Elliott include the following: Street Mr. Karr, chairman; Mr. Updegraff, Mr. Watson and Tom Leete. Lighting Owen E. Metzger, chairman; Mr. Roberts.

Elliott Elected president of the Coudersport Borough Council at its reorganization meeting Monday night in the hose rooms was James Leonard Elliott, 41-year-old lumber dealer. A graduate of the Corning (N. Y.) Free Academy and later attending St. Bonaventure University, "Jim" has resided in Coudersport since 1936 and has been interested in the lumber business ever since. For several years, he was associated with his father, the late Dr. Leon Elliott, and his grandfather, and in 1946 took over what is now the James Elliott Lumber Co. Mr. Elliott served in the Air Force for four years, was in the Azores for a year and in Newfoundland for a year doing air-sea rescue work. He was separated from the service as a warrant officer. Active in civic affairs, Jim is a member of St. Eulalia's Catholic Church; the Knights of Columbus; Potter Post 192. American Legion, and the Penn-York Lumbermen's Club. He has been on the council for two years and is a member of the Coudersport Recreation Board. As such, he was instrumental in the construction of Coudersport's new swimming pool in Mitchell Park. Mr. Elliott is married to the former Miss Molly Ellis, of Henderson, N. C. With their four children-three boys and a girl they live on South Main St. in a home built by the lumberman a few years ago.

Guests were: - Mr. and Mrs. Robert Walters, - Mr. and Mrs. Clayton Reed, - Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Franke and - Mr. and Mrs. Taft Ayers. Edw. Weiss Faces Charge Of Hit-Run Edward F. Weiss, 24, North Bingham, made double trouble for himself and before the new year had fairly gotten on its way. Investigating State Troopers state that his car was smashed up to the extent of about $400 at 7:45 last Friday night a short distance above Burtville on Route 6. Troopers explained he was rounding a curve at such speed he could not stay on fiis own half of the highway. His vehicle, officers said, struck a car driven by Donald F. Baker, 56, of Genesee. Mr. Baker's vehicle was estimated to be damaged about $400. The young man failed to stop and identify himself. The result was that Weiss was arrested and charged with two offenses: failure to stop at the scene of an accident and failure to identify himself. Before Justice W. C. Klein he entered a plea of guilty to both charges and was committed to the county jail. Later he furnished bail to appear in court. Both charges are misdemeanors. Wife of Sheriff Undergoes Surgery At Sayre Mrs. Harold C. Holcomb, wife of Potter County Sheriff Holcomb, underwent surgery Monday in the Robert Packer Hospital, Sayre. A report last night disclosed that she is doing "as well as can be expected." Attends FOP Meeting In Pittsburgh Corporal Henry F.

Grabe as borough treasurer but tabled the resignation of John W. Mahaley, secretary-solicitor, until tomorrow night, pending further investigation. Mr. Mahaley had indicated he would accept the job again if his salary were increased about $1,000 per year. Carl H. Roberts, Charles Upde-graff and John Karr were sworn in by burgess Mort. W. Levinson, who conducted the meeting prior to the election of James L. Elliott as president for the next two years.

Mr. Grabe, who. for years has served as trustee of the Schildeberger Estate as well as borough treasurer, will receive the same salary for the latter position $125 per year. He reluctantly agreed to continue as trustee of the estate after he had been assured that the borough will attempt to dispose of the two houses owned by the estate during this year. Street commissioner Oliver Watson was re-appointed by the new council at the same salary, although he had requested an increase for himself and other borough street employes. Council members asked for time to study the budget before any salary or wage increases are granted. It was also decided by the newly-organized borough governing body that regular meetings will be held the first Monday of each month at 7:30 in the hose rooms. Committees named by Mr. Elliott include the following: Street Mr. Karr, chairman; Mr. Updegraff, Mr. Watson and Tom Leete. Lighting Owen E. Metzger, chairman; Mr. Roberts.

Elliott Elected president of the Coudersport Borough Council at its reorganization meeting Monday night in the hose rooms was James Leonard Elliott, 41-year-old lumber dealer. A graduate of the Corning (N. Y.) Free Academy and later attending St. Bonaventure University, "Jim" has resided in Coudersport since 1936 and has been interested in the lumber business ever since. For several years, he was associated with his father, the late Dr. Leon Elliott, and his grandfather, and in 1946 took over what is now the James Elliott Lumber Co. Mr. Elliott served in the Air Force for four years, was in the Azores for a year and in Newfoundland for a year doing air-sea rescue work. He was separated from the service as a warrant officer. Active in civic affairs, Jim is a member of St. Eulalia's Catholic Church; the Knights of Columbus; Potter Post 192. American Legion, and the Penn-York Lumbermen's Club. He has been on the council for two years and is a member of the Coudersport Recreation Board. As such, he was instrumental in the construction of Coudersport's new swimming pool in Mitchell Park. Mr. Elliott is married to the former Miss Molly Ellis, of Henderson, N. C. With their four children-three boys and a girl they live on South Main St. in a home built by the lumberman a few years ago.

Weiss, 24, North Bingham, made double trouble for himself and before the new year had fairly gotten on its way. Investigating State Troopers state that his car was smashed up to the extent of about $400 at 7:45 last Friday night a short distance above Burtville on Route 6. Troopers explained he was rounding a curve at such speed he could not stay on fiis own half of the highway. His vehicle, officers said, struck a car driven by Donald F. Baker, 56, of Genesee. Mr. Baker's vehicle was estimated to be damaged about $400. The young man failed to stop and identify himself. The result was that Weiss was arrested and charged with two offenses: failure to stop at the scene of an accident and failure to identify himself. Before Justice W. C. Klein he entered a plea of guilty to both charges and was committed to the county jail. Later he furnished bail to appear in court. Both charges are misdemeanors. Wife of Sheriff Undergoes Surgery At Sayre Mrs. Harold C. Holcomb, wife of Potter County Sheriff Holcomb, underwent surgery Monday in the Robert Packer Hospital, Sayre. A report last night disclosed that she is doing "as well as can be expected." Attends FOP Meeting In Pittsburgh Corporal Henry F.
