to the Salens Schecl Board's at
tention "Tuesday night what he
termed lack cf recreation facili
ties for vouths living in the areas
of Liberty. Middle Grove and
Swede schools.
Myeri asked that gyms of the
schools be made available to these
vouths -under a supervised pro
gram fr after-school and week
end use.
Cost Divided
The Salem School District
would out up half of the money
for such a program and parents'
groups; or other organizations ' In
the areas the remainder.! A simi
lar setup now exists in the city
where i the school district foots
half the bill and the city the rest
. A supervisor would be needed
to take charge of the program In
each of the three areas. The matter-was
referred to the board's
recreation committee for consid
eration. '; j ;
The "board heard a Teport that
workers in the annual school cen-
v sus had counted 105 children liv
ing in a new housing area north
of Oxford and south of Hoyt
streets, and between 20th street
and the Salem Airport ' J

rollment this fall. . ! I
- Walter . Schendel, 175 poone RcL,
representing the Liberty. School
Mothers' and Dads' Club, tol the
board that construction! going on
between Cunningham Lane and
. Browning Avenue on Liberty road
presents a problem to children
' walking to Liberty School, In that
houses are being built only
10 to 15 feet back from the road,
leaving the pupils little space in j
which to walk. He was advised to
take the problem to the Marion
County Court - , .' U- J !l;
The board also: j i t'
Heard. that enrollment in the
Salem School District has jumped
to 10.349. i
Approved the hiring of Mrs.
Marian Frekas an assigned sub
stitute teacher to serve full time
with ! the first grade at Pringle
Schoel, as well as instructors
Scott Samsel and Robert Thomp

gram; . - ;j it
Referred back to the Salem
Planning and Zoning Commission
a petition from a group which
seeks to build a service; station at
the corner of Broadway and Col
umbia streets, directly; ac ross
from Highland School ! j 1
The construction of the station
would change the area from an
R-l to a C-l zone. The board
agreed to abide by the commis
sion's decision on the matter. I
Meanwhile Tuesday, a city build
ing permit was issued to Standard
Oil Co. of California for construc
tion of the proposed $27,800 service
station, and a suit is in Marion
County Circuit Court in an at
tempt by nearby property owners
to nullify tSe commercial zone
which allows the service station.
Opponents Petition 5 f
Opponents to the business de
velopment .have petitioned the
City Council to change the zone
back to residential and to refrain
from fighting the lawsuit - j
Planning engineer C. A. Mm
Clure. after checking the petition
of 136 citizens, told the Planning
Commission last night that it rep
resented 77 separate properties, of
which 24 are within 300 feet of the
business zone ana most ot mem
ecross Center St. -
Robert K. Powell. planning
chairman, traced background of
the business zone which was ere
ated for the entire block "north of
Center Street and east of Jason
last year when the entire city wa
rezoned. ' i - . - '
Fature Eyed -! I- '
He said the zone revision com
rr.ittee had taken into consider
tion the likelihood that additional
business uses along Center Street
would, be sought in the next few
years, and that by expanding two
already-existing business centers
these needs might be met without
further zone change maneuver!
for some years to come. i 1
He referred to the expansion ol
business zoning at Center and
17th and in the block further east
where ! several medical clinic
buildings a drug store and other
buildings had gone up in recent
years.; The now-controversial gas
station site is in that block. At the
time of rezoning. the neighborhood
entered no protest. )
