Age Limit Will Bar Ball Probation Officer Gloer Is Spoken Of. Will It be Assistant Chief Jett or Assistant Chief Qloer? This le the great problem In police circles since the creation of tho new offlec was made certain by the favor able report of the ordinance commit tee. One thing seems certain,* despite many prediction* to the contrary. I will not be "Assistant Chief Ball." A number of the friends of tho for mer chief had expected that when hi* friends on the board of police commis sioner* voted for Jennings for chief that the others would como across and vote for Ball for assistant and possibly there woe such a silent understanding. City Attorney Mayion rules, how ever, that Boll Is not eligible; that Is, he says no man over 40 years old can be elected to tho force under civil serv ice. That, It appear*, eliminates Ball. Captain Jett haa always been spoken of as the probable assistant chief. There la no doubt that ho will bo considered, and. at present, conditions seem to point to his being chosen. Another candidate, however, haa loomed up. This Is J. M. Gloer, pro bation officer, than whom there le prob ably not a more efficient and popular man In the service. One of tho commissioners haa atated positively he would vole for Gloer. Thl* leaves the race between Jett and Oloer. NEW OROER AFFECTING BANKRUPTCY CASES. Special to The Georgian. Macon. Ga.
