Egg Hunt in
Willson Park
Easter Day
All Salem children betweem
the age at 1 and t 1
vited to attend the annul
Easter egg bant sponsored by
the M-li club of Salem Sun
day afternoon at 2 o'clock
In Willson park.
Several thousand candied
eggs will bo bidden In the
park and prises furnished by
cooperating Salem merchants
will be given to children who
find one of the several largo
brightly colored pslse efts.
This year the children will
bo separated Into two troupe,
those from the ages 1 through
C years on the south side of
the central walk and the old
er children on the north side.
This It Intended to prevent
the overwhelming advant
age of the older children in
past years.
South Salem
Has Innings
Residents of that part of Sa
lem south of Mission street
and west of the Southern Pa
cific main line had their In
nings In criticism of the new
zoning plan at a meet held last
night at Leslie Junior High
school.
The meeting was called by
the subcommittee of the city
planning and zoning commis
sion that has been working on
code revision, and was presided
over by Robert Stanley, chair
man of the subcommittee. .
Numerous , changes in . the
proposed code were suggested
by the 30 or so residents who
attended the meeting, all of
which committee members said
would be considered, and most
of which they said had been
considered as the tentative
new zoning map was devel
oped.
One project in that part of
the city and another specula
tive project serve to compli
cate the situation. The former
is the new South Salem high
school now under construction.
and the latter is the American
Legion clubhouse and grounds
on South Commercial which
are reported about to be sold.
Desirable zoning in that dis
trict depends much on what
the property will be used for
after it changes hands.
