While -Mayor lOisek has not ;uj yet de.signated his intention a.s to the course he will pursue In regard to the ordinance establi.xhing a health board for this city the .^late makers are l>u.sy. Yesterday afternfxn .Mayor Kosek wa.s interviewed by an Independent report¬ er and staled thai he had not as yet looked into the details that are con¬ nected with the new measure. ilo al.so stated that he had not yet coin- iiiitled himself for or against tlu- nuraaure and that all f<>rec,x.sts as tn what his  stand  would   be  were  futile.
While this Is the status of affairs the fact that five 1)081.1 carrying with them more or less prominence and r>reistlge are to be created by the .act if put in force ha.s led to a scramble for tho ottlce. The mayor admitted that there was some truth in tbe re¬ port that l>r. Ij. .\.
