Une of the major projects of the late Fire Chief Ray Hobbs. was' the building of a new fire hall on King Street Hast. For years he atiempted to persuade city council that it should be built and he was delighted when it was finally ap- proved. When it is officially opened, Oct. 16, it may bear his name. Board of cortrol agreed yesterday to a motion of Con. Margaret Shaw that it should be named the H. R. Hobbs Memorial Station No. 4 in his memory, The recom- mendation will be con- sidered by council Tuesday. She said afterwards, 'Mr. Hobbs gave 47 years. of faithful service to the city COUNCIL TO CONSIDER NAMING FIRE HALL LATE and worked hard for many years to get this station erected.
