Park, Recreation Director Cites Amendment Need One factor to be considered in evaluating the city park and rec reation departments' financial needs is the very general use made ol their facilities by schools and other community organiza tions, Bob Bonney, director of the departments, said Friday. Bonney is hopeful that voters will approve on November 4 a charier amendment proposal grant ing the two departments additional annual revenue of $27,900 between them. With the help of a citizens' committee headed by Loren Bin ney, Bonney is seeking to publi cize facts about his departments which he believes establish the necessity for increasing their budg et. "The essential point." Bonney said, "is that the departments have been organized as at present since 1947, that since that time we have developed the depart ments, their facilities and their programs, and that meanwhile our revenues are decreasing. "If the public wants us to main tain these facilties and programs," Bonney said, "it will grant us more revenue. It is possible that some people do not realize the role played by these departments. For example, there are the many fac ilities which are used by other public and private agencies. Bonney said that his depart ments' recreational facilities were ennsiantly being used for school athletic programs. Conger Field is used nightly for football, by Sa cred Heart Academy, Conger School, Riverside School and Fre mont Junior High School. Recre ation Field, on Adams Street near Vine Avenue, is in constant use by Mills School, including nightly football in this season. The Fair view Park playground is also used by Fairview School for physical education and athletics. "Gem Stadium provides football facilities for Allamont Junior High School and the high school frosh teams, in addition to serving sev eral of the county's schools for their varsity games," Bonney said. "Chiloquin, Bonanza and Henley high schools, and Sacred Heart Academy, particularly, make use of this facility. "In addition, the Moore Park tennis courts are used by KUHS for its tennis program, while Con ger Field is used for the boys and girls play days sponsored by the schools. At the same time, the recreation department uses the schools' facilities for its own in door winter programs." Non-official community organi zations also benefit from the rec reational facilities that Bonney di rects, he says. He cited the Girl Scouts and the Camp Fire Girls as being among the many groups that use the day camp facilities, at Moore Park each summer: the YMCA is another large organization that has used (these community facilities, for sports clinics and swimming programs. The park and recreation depart ments' total tax revenue, between them, in 1957-58 was $53,600. "By any standards, this amount is obviously Inadequate for us even to provide proper maintenance and adequate programs at our fac ilities," Bonney said. "The proper development of them is simply out of the question. Obituaries HOWARD Lvdia Fricke Howard, 79, died here October 10.
