Recreation Eor Our Youngsters . . .
There has been some discussion around and about
the city on the possibility of building a swimming jxx»l
for the youngsters. It is still in the discussion stage.
Nobody has taken any action.
In the main, we’re opjxised to the idea. We are,
of course, open minded about the project, but there
are just too many hugs which can’t seem to he worked
out at this stage.
We believe strongly in the idea of our youngsters
learning to swim, and we think that swimming is one
of the most wholesome of all recreations.
But—Brookings just isn’t ready for such a project.
There arc too many things we need first, and worse.
Besides, an outdoor swimming jxx»l in this area would
be used for so few days of the year, most youngsters
would prefer swimming in the river anyway. An in
door pool would he wonderful—but the expense would
be terrific for a community this size.
A much better way for the townspeople to spend
their promotional time and effort would lx to secure
facilities for a summer supervised recreational program
for the youngsters. That situation is currently one of
die most deplorable in Brookings. The youth have no
place to play during the summer. With an outlay of
several thousands of dollars for a paid director, and
equipment the city could have, and should have a
recreational program.
The leaders of the community, educational, city
administration, religious, business leaders—including
th e “Pilot”—should feel a twinge of shame at allowing
another summer to come without a playground, and
playground facilities for their youngsters.

SCHOOL IMPROVEMENTS —
During the summer vacation
we learn wrom the Brookings
HI-LIHTS, considerable work is
planned for improving the inter
ior of the new- building. The
shop, music room, and three of
the classrooms in the cafeteria
will be completed with cork
floors and the ceiling and walls
sealed. In the music room there
will be permanent risers, in
strument storage and special
storage space for music.
Outside the building the park
ing area will be blacktopped as
well as the bus loading area and
possible black topping on the
south side of the building to be
used for parking space also.
Two classrooms are to be d e
veloped in the balcony of the
gym.
And, if there is any money left
over, there is a possibility it may
be used for improving the recre
ational area.
