State Lagging In Facilities For Recreation INDIANAPOLIS (UPD—lndiana tas fallen behind in providing receational opportunities for Hootiers and attractions to lure the ourist dollar. The Governor's Committee on iecreation gave Governor Welsh be findings of a two-year study if state recreational facilities. The study revealed a need for idditional facilities and for proessionally trained leaders fcfoughout the state. Muncie Park foard President Walter Fisher, tlso •chairman of the committee, resented the report to Welsh. The report stressed “The families for organized recreation in ndiana both outdoor and indoor ire inadequate in most counties o meet the needs of an expanding epulation... "Commercial facilities for receation and those of private memeship organizations are growing aster than public facilities and ■oluntarily supported semi-support acuities.” Even so, the only commercial ecreation facilities found in every ndiana county is a tavern. The study, directed by Dr. Walter Stone, Hanover College onsulting sociologist, noted “mov- „ ug picture theatres, either outdoor or indoor, were found in all ut six counties. Commercial oarling alleys are increasing, biliard parlors decreasing.” In the area of public-owned acilities, the state was above ninimum standards recommended y the National Recreation AsSbiation in only four areas. The state has an above-mini-num number of gymnasiums 594 >, auditoriums (445), playlelds (13,727 acres) and baseball lamonds (44). The report shows a gross acrege of public recreational facilities f 28,262, which is 18,361 acres less tian the recommended minimum, acluded in recreation facilities re libraries totaling 380 or 80 too jw, according to the committee. Softball diamonds totaled 755, ut the minimum recommended nr Indiana's population was 1,554. here were 734 tennis courts, but tie number needed was set at ,331. The report also said “the tourist pportunities are not exploited as hey could be for Indiana to get is share of this third largest inustry in the United States.” The committee recommended oth state and local governments mmediately begin “an aggressive rogram of acquisition of public ark and recreation areas and bey develop a masterplan for orerly growth and development of ecreation services. Another recommendation was that all communities consider he principle of multiple-use of exiting publicly owned facilities uch as schools, libraries, araories, and parks.” Fisher commented also that 'adequate facilities are of little alue unless they are properly taffed by trained, professional ndividuals and unless sufficient unds are made available for local .ommunities to implement improvements or expansions.” If you have something to sell or rade — use the Democrat Want ids — they get BIG results.
