BEAVERTON ENTERPRISE FR ID A Y, APRIL 16, is offered to allow for a swimming pool, basketball court, handball courts, auditorium for dancing, theatricals, meetings and what ever else is needed. People, particularly working people with children growing up in the community, 'could do some thing about this. They could come together in a public meeting and lay plans to build such a monu ment to the young of the com munity. But will they forget? Wil lthey let the chance slip by? • • • • 1948 at the bit. With only about a month and a half left of the school year, the apple-knockers realize there will be many an ex tra-schedule session to determine official league standings. Particularly anxious, Beaverton high school ball players brighten with each passing ray of sunlight, only to see them all followed by rain. This will be the Beaver's first go at the baseball whirl and the players, as well as town fans. I CUE BALL T H E OISE . . . THAT PICKS 'EM OFF RAIN IN THE FACE Rain.

The Cue Ball however, considered the fights worthy of an evening’s time. An all heavyweight card, the pace, naturally, was not as lively as the April 27 card will probably he, when Manuel Ortiz, bantam weight king, meets Joey Dolan, from Spokane, in a non-title ten round main event. The biggest surprise from the April 6 card was the fact that the pulverizing punch of the reported Jolting Joe Kahut, against a wide-open target, failed to put Roy Hawkins on the deck for good. Hawkins’ left hand seemed quite educated, from the start of the fight, but his general ring educa tion didn’t seem to do too much good. A husky, good-looking chap, he stood up before the crouching, twisting Kahut with his stomach fully exposed. Either because of his wonderful condition or be cause Kaut’s lethal punch might be over-rated, he stood up under a constant barrage of mid-riff as saults as well as the looping right that seemed to have almost proved a definite Micky Finn for his evening. One of the preliminary features showed real class when Hawkins' trainer. Jack Chase, toyed with Johnny Janis for a round and a part before blasting him out of the picture after a knockdown of nine • counts in the first.

St. Helens, which was at first included in the American Legion ball league in which the eastern part of Washington county will play, has now been transferred to the coast league, with Vernonia taking the spare place. As lined up now, Vernonia, For est Grove, Banks, Hillsboro. Bea verton and Tigard will compete among themselves. Total games are held to 12, this year, because of the experience last year, when unusual rains in terfered to great disadvantage. Two games apiece, instead of three, is slated this year. It wouldn't be much news for this end of the county, except as an indication of the general trend of people's thoughts and activities. A t any rate, the city of Hills boro has received and officially accepted a report from its recre ation commission and will stage a special meeting of the city coun cil April 19 for due discussion and public hearing of all citizens interested. Hillsboro, awaiting its report since the time the commission was appointed. November 7, 1947, is urged to institute a year-around supervised recreation program for persons of all nges, with the en tire program financed through taxation. Recommended is a full time supervisor, a schedule of city parks, an indoor swimming pool, children's play areas and other items. The value of supervised recre ation is spreading in its accept ance throughout the nation. Yet, there are communities which steadfastly do nothing to achieve such a program, beyond wishful thinking that some benevolent magic might suddenly make it pos siblo. • • * • e e e The 21st annual junior world series, under national sponsorship of the American Legion, has been set for Victory Field, Indianapolis, Indiana, September 6 to 10. In this end of the state, winners of the Washington county loop (which includes Vernonia) will meet the coast league winners in an elimination leading to a district playoff. This elimination picks the state winner which, in turn, enters a regional playoff in Boise, fol lowed by another in Cheyenne, Wyoming. So will be picked the teams for junior world series play. • Cell— write— or better yet, come ia to Me ut todey. Columbia Agricultural Supply & Equipment Co. 1717 S. E.
