Recreational Facilities to
Be Discussed Tuesday Night
Salem's recreational possibilities and the so-called "youth de
linquency problem" will be discussed at a meeting called by the
Salem Rotary club for Tuesday night at 7:30 o'clock in the floral
room of the Chamber of Com-
mr TnvitPd tn attond the ernment. The association has
meeting are representatives of
Salem organizations and any
other interested persons.
Feeling, as do many informed
men and women, that the youth
delinquency problem is really
an "adult delinquency prob
1cm." adults being delinquent in
neglecting to do what they can
to mitigate the evil, the Rotary
club last July undertook a pro
gram aimed at improving recre
ational facilities here.
Considered were the possibil
ities of adding to or better co
ordinating the city's existing fa
cilities to make them more at
tractive to a large number of
persons. Toward this end the
members of the youth and com
munity service committees of
the club have investigated rec
reational conditions in other cit
ies, collected some data pertain
ing lo Salem's facilities and
consulted with representatives of
the National Recreation associa
tion, which outlined the original
general set-up for the play
grounds and swimming pools
here when they were construct
ed about 12 years ago.
The committees and a few in
terested persons some month
ago met with a representative
of the National Recreation as
sociation, non-profit organiza
lion formed 40 years ago, and
. considered expert in recreation
al planning. Possibility of ;
survey was considered and fig
urcs of the survey given, which
showed a highlight survey cost
ing about $500 and a thorough
survey about $1000.
The highlight survey, done
with the aid of volunteers
would be made in connection
with the public schools, welfare
organizations and the ciiy gov-
already rated Salem as sub
standard in recreation facilities
outside the schools.
Taken into consideration in
any survey would be municipal
problems, future developments
in recreation for the next 20
years, financial data and possi
ble growth in that time. One
aim of any survey would be to
avoid the wasting of money in
lack of planning.
At the Tuesday night meet-1
ing W. M. Hamilton and Preston j
F. Doughton will report the
findings of their committees to
the group and enlist their aid in
improving the city's recreation
al facilities, by making it a com
munity project. A suggestion
will be made that a temporary
committee, selected from those
represented at the meeting, be
formed to consider the matter,
with the thought that a perma
nent committee be formed later
as a city-wide organization. That
committee will take the lead in
developing better recreational
facilities.
