Mc CIure reported to the city's long range planning commission Tues day night in a preliminary digest of his recreational purvey under taken at the behest! jff Salem or ganizaitons which farmed the Sa lem Hecreation assciation. McClure's report jnotes that Sa lem area papulation is increasing faster than facilities can be made available for a public recreation program and that fcity parks are not adequate for active recrea tion. He advises early acquisition of public recreation sites while desirable tracts are available. Survey Incomplete! When the full survey is com pleted, it will be submitted to the Salem Recreation association, the commission indicated. Other highlights) of the survey digest issued by McCIure: The school boaipd is willing to conduct recreation programs that can be financed. Legislative au thority should permit school dig tricts to levy a tax exclusively for recreation purposes. YMCA Is well equipped but does not have decentralization of facilities necessary for city wide recreation requirements. Asks Charges Reduced Reduction or elimination of charges for aduit night classes would result in greater interest in such school in fof both recreation and education, j Commercial recreation activities cover wide field in Salem, but most of them closed to minors. About 35 per cent of Salem area population under age 25 and trend is even larger percentage in younger age groups by 1950.
