<br />the School City would be more concerned, and at the same time one of such importance
<br />that the Board of Public Works will endorse and approve any reasonable agreement that
<br />may be reached between either or both groups of school patrons and the bus company, and
<br />arrangements were made thereupon for a meeting of the bus company officials with the
