Development Of Recreation Program For Youth Told By Mayor Flegel To Rotarians Leroy Hiatt, new Rotary Club president, termed tt "an honor and a challenge" to head the local Rotarians in his talk Thursday noon before fellow members, visitors and guests. Serving as president of the Roseburg service organization for the first time, Hiatt said it was a great honor to him and remind ed Incoming committee chairmen of their responsibility In living up to the club's aims.

From a meager beginning In 1942, when the youngsters gather ed a few nights a week to play Softball, the plan has mushroom ed to its present status. Average attendance on each of the six days has now reached 72, with plans already afoot for further expansion in coming years, Flegel said. Mayor Flegel thanked the city, the American Legion, and other sources for help In meeting this year's expenses amounting to about $2,000. Included in this amount was the expense of buy ing new uniforms for the young sters, an item which will not recur until the uniforms are out worn.
