He recommended the latter ' if people in fringe areas outside the city would be benefiting in large numbers from park and recreational facilities, and "if . you want a more inde pendent basis." . i Established Standard ' He said that S6 per capita was a "nationally established standard" for park and recre ation budgets but that this varied considerably with indi vidual needs. He explained the $6 was bcoken down into $3 for serv ices and S3 for maintenance and operation of parks. On the subject of swimming pools, Dr. Rodney said, "They should be smaller pools, tied to neighborhoods and tied to recreational and instructional use." ' He discussed modern con cepts of swimming pools in which bath houses could serve as recreational centers and the areas surrounding the pool could be planted with grass and provided with tables as a picnic area. Ask Artist's Sketch Commission Chairman Jer ry Poulos asked if they could see an artist's sketch for such a project with specific refer ence to the proposed pool in the Jackson County Housing authority area near Jackson school. ! :' "Perhaps we can discuss later how we can help you im plement this," Dr. Rodney re plied. "I can let ;you know how far we can go on this with you in a few days." Verl G. Walker, a commis sion member, reported encour aging progress in negotiations to acquire a railroad engine for recreational use.
