NEW CITY FLAG: City Clerk Fred J. Looker (left) and City Administrator Guy C. Larcom, jr., examine the new 3x5-foot city flag delivered to City Hall yesterday. The flag is on display in the City Council room. The flag, basically white, black and gold in color, was made up by a local firm on the basis of a design by Jean Winkelhaus, winner of a flag design contest last spring for students in the city in grades 7 through 12. A city flag originally was proposed by former Councilwoman Alicia Dwyer Pratt. Cost for the city of making the flag was $154.50, not including pole and stand.
