rAA WAY of mechanically cleaning the rears of double-deck buses has been evolved by Mr. Cecil Wilson, superintendent of the Leicester Avenue depot of Doncastcr Transport Department. The transport committee have recommended that the corporation give Mr. Wilson an award Of £30 for his ingenuity. They estimate that his device should mean a saving to them of almost £2,000 a year in wages. Aid. Reginald Kelsall, chairman of the committee, said that Mr. Wilson's device cost little as it was made up from an old electric motor, which was lying unused at the depot, and scrap material. All that they had to buy was a nylon brush similar to those used to wash down other vehicles.
