"GUARD MOUNT" PUT IN EFFECT FOR POLICEMEN "To quit their post only when properly relieved," is an innovation innova-tion which Ogden 'police will follow fol-low in the future, according to Commissioner J. R. Ward. He stated today that a sergea'nt of police po-lice will take the relief men out and post them at given points around the city to relieve men on duty. "Under the old system," said Commissioner Ward, "tne men coming off shift arranged to ar-, ar-, rive at the station at the ond of their shift, while tho new shift left the station at the given period for tho beginning of their "trick." A period of 10 to 15 minutes elapsed, during which no policemen police-men were on the beat." The new system will eliminate this lack of protection. Commissioner Ward said. oo
