Program on
Recreation
A panel discussion on "the
importance of recreation in the
lives of our young ones" was
the program for the last meet
ing of Lincoln Parent-Teacher
association. The Rev. Richard
Jones of Eastwood Baptist
church, moderator, opened the
discussion by saying that recrea
tion is a teaching tool and a
channel for the abundant en
ergies of a child. A child is
taught leadership, followership
and fellowship through recrea
tion, the minister added.
Rules of the game, good social
relations and teamwork and that
no man stands alone are learned
through recreation, the modera
tor added.
Richard Lamb, Boy Scout ex
ecutive, spoke of the scout rec
reation program which begins
with Cub scouts and continues
through Boy and Explorer
scouts. He said the three main
goals of the program are citi
zenship training, charter buil
ding and physical fitness. He
mentioned the Boy Scout camp
at Lake o' the Woods.
Alex McDonald represented
the YMCA, where the emphasis
is on the whole family playing
together, and on Christian living.
Its operation is only possible
when the community provides
leadership, Mr. McDonald said,
and spoke of the youth summer
camp at Diamond lake. He also
told briefly of the baseball scnooi
sponsored each summer by the
Medford city schools.
Sgt. Lyle Perkins represented
the PAL club, or Police Athletic
league. He stated that PAL's
boxing program gives the chil
dren something that the schools
doesn't give them. He added that
many of the children at the
PAL club do not belong to other
organizations for financial rea
sons, and said the club accepts
any child who has an interest in
boxing or just wants to come and
watch. The officer stated that the
police seldom "have to question
a juvenile who is a member of
a Girl scout or boy scout troop.
Edward Barnett, speaking for
television, stated TV is changing
children's thinking. He said the
industry hoped- people watched
TV in family groups and that it
supplemented such activities at
the PAL club, scout program and
the YMCA. A question and
answer period followed.
The meeting opened with pre
sentation of the colors by Mrs.
Eric de Place s fifth grade Girl
Scouts.
Mrs. Don Moser, hospitality
chairman, spoke of the success
of the Christmas treat for the
children and thanked mothers
for their help. Mrs. Sam Bailey
spoke of the PTA legislative pro
gram and urged those present
to take an active part in the pro
gram by writing their opinions
to the legislators.
Those present were told of the
need for additional Brownie and
Girl Scout leaders.
Roy Gilbertson spoke of the
polio vaccination program. He
expressed the school's thanks for
the help of the parents at the
time of the Christmas program
and party day. He also urged
parents to visit the school and
become acquainted with what
their children were doinz in
school and with their children's
teachers. He cited the adult edu
cation program being instituted
under the leadership of Henry
De Voss by which a high school
education or its equivalent be
obtained.
As this was Dad's night, Eric
de Place served as secretary and
Sam Bailey as treasurer. The
president, John Weber, retained
his chair and also gave the invocation.
