Urges Preservation Os Natural Heritage By GAY PAULEY i UPI Women's Editor NEW YORK (UPI)—To some, the bulldozer is a sypbol of progress. To Leonard Outhwaita, an‘hrcpoiogui and explorer, it also |is a symbol of what's happening to “America, the Beautiful." Ou th waite has no quarrel with progress, nor for that matter with the bulldozer—when used discriminately. But he would like to see the preservation of some of our natural heritage for us and future generations to contemplate and enjoy. Outhwaite is research consultant to the Nature Centers For Young America, Inc., a recently formed organization to encourage villages, towns and cities to set aside — “while there is still time”—some part of th-? natural setting nearby for use, not as a formal park, but to preserve the native flora and fauna ... a big slice of the as it was before organization set in. , . Preserve dr Be Engulfed { “The bulldozers have leveled thg life out of -ti*e hills and the fields,” says the center's brochure. Outhwaite adds, “If we don't. start preserving soon, we’ll be engulfed.” “In so many parts of America already.” Outhwaite continued, “you drive 25 to 30 miles outside the city limits . . . still past nothing but housing developments.” “There is no time to waste,” he continued, in an interview. And the .urgency with which the anJhropologist (talked created visions immediately of a land one day bare of toe things we used to take for gnanted—fields, trees, grass, native flowers, streams and wildlife. “The centers would be used for both relaxation and education,” he said. “Away to teach children botany, zoology, conservation—better than they ever could learn them from boohs.” « Looks For Locations The anthropologist recently completed a 14.000-mile motor trip around the nation looking for likely locations for nature centers, far zoological parks and museums. He said -many communities already are aware of how urbanization is cutting back nature and ere doing something about it. Stamford, Conn., is one ot the ptoneers and has set aside close to 100 acres of streams and •woodland. • * Outhwaite was secretary to the President’s Ccmhuttee on Demobilizaticn after World War II and wrote the committee report which became the "GI Bill of Rights.” At present, he also is a member of the advisory board of RCA's advance design center.
