MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 14, 1941. PAGE THREH FACILITY HERE WAIT OF DEFENSE AREA Mrs. Alfred Carpenter, Rec reation Committee Chair- man, Explains Procedure. United Service Organizations cannot establish recreational centers and facilities here until or unless Medford is officially designated a defense area, Mrs. Alfred S. V. Carpenter, chair man of the recreation commit tee of the Jackson County Coun cil of Defense, said today in making a public reply to numer ous inquiries her committee has received. Whether Medford is ever designated as a defense area depends on whether au- thorization Is ever given for construction of the proposed Beagle-Antelope cantonment. Mrs. Carpenter chose today to talk about United Service Or- ionizations because today is "recreation day" of National Defense Week. The senior high school cooperated in arranging a skit in observance of the day. Experience Required In reply to other questions her committee has received, Mrs. Carpenter stated that paid employes of the recreational renters being established by the United Service Organizations must be thoroughly experienced in recreational or social work and that the key employes are chosen from the six organiza tions that comprise U. S. O., Salvation Army, Y. M. C. A., National Catholic Community Service, Jewish Welfare Board, A V. W. C. A. and National Travel B) ers Aid Association. To procure the latest information on the subject, Mrs. Carpenter made a trip to La Jolla, Cal., to confer with executives of the U. S O. unit functioning there In tem porary building. A program of building U. S. O. recreational centers is now under way at a number of California cities near army camps. Where Monty Went Mrs. Carpenter said there Is not a great deal of specific information about the organiza tion available yet because it Is so new. The money raised here went into the general U S.
