Example | (2) | is also a pyramid head in three parts. It states the same facts as the example above but phrases them in a different way. It is 12 words long and avoids dividing the word | Committee |. The three parts are respectively 30, 25 and 17 unit letters long and say | Plan to Let Experts Fix Amount |, | Given Approval by Council |, Finance Committee. | Displayed as a single line the head says | Plan to Let Experts Fix Amount Given Approval by Council Finance Committee. |
The third deck, which, because of the size of type, is next in prominence to the top deck, should contain the mayor’s part in the solution, and within the limits of 23 unit letters, this may be expressed in the following forms:
The image above has five examples of cross-line heads that state the mayor's role in the solution with each using different wording. Example | (1) | is 23 units and says | PROPOSAL MADE BY MAYOR |. Example | (2) | is also 23 units and says | MAYOR PROPOSES SOLUTION |. Example | (3) | is 24 units and says | PLAN IS OFFERED BY MAYOR |. Example | (4) | is 23½ units and says | MAYOR ENDS THE SQUABBLE |. Example | (5) | is also 23½ units and says | MAYOR PROPOSES THE PLAN |.
If the third or fifth forms are used, they should not be combined with the second form, “Plan To Let Experts, etc.,” suggested for the second deck, because of the repetition of the word “plan.”
For the fourth deck the idea that the dispute is an annual one, and, if not already used, the point that the plan is going into effect next year, may both be expressed within the limits, which are the same as those for the second deck, as follows:
The image above has two examples. Example | (1) | is a pyramid head in three parts which contains 12 words. The three parts are respectively 27, 24 and 18 units long and say | New Method Will End Annual |, | Dispute of Aldermen Over |, | Allotment of Money. | Displayed as a single line the head says | New Method Will End Annual Dispute of Aldermen Over Allotment of Money. |
Example | (2) | is also a pyramid head in three parts. This one contains 11 words. It again communicates the idea that the dispute is an annual one and that the plan is going into effect next year. The three parts are respectively 27, 26 and 14 units long and say | Annual Squabble of Aldermen |, | Over Street Cleaning Money |, | Ends Next Year. | Displayed as a single line the head says | Annual Squabble of Aldermen Over Street Cleaning Money Ends Next Year. |
In complete form with one of each of these possibilities chosen to avoid repetition, the head will read:
