turns out that your hostess and the other guests appear in dresses instead of slacks. The swagger coat is just as nice over an evening dress as it is over a sports frock or a bathing suit.

Recreation Relieves Monotony for Inmates Penal, Benevolent Institutions

Of State's

Plan Board's Survey Shows Need for New Facilities.

Life in Indiana's 19 penal, cor-

rectional and benevolent institutions | is being organized to relieve monot- |

ony and bring the pleasures of healthy social contacts to the inmates, a State Planning Board survey showed today. For all these institutions, however, further work is needed to improve recreational facilities, the survey report said. In almost every case increased library facilities and provisjon for indoor activities was suggested. The survey pointed out that there was a question as to how many recreational facilities should be provided for the State Prison at Michigan City. According to Lester Engel, Planning Board recreation research director and author of the study, most prison officials now agree that some provision for leisure time activities improves the morale of the man. There is some question as to how much' these activities should be promoted, he added.

Cites Local Program

The Central State Hospital, Indianapolis, with approximately 1800 patients, and the Evansville State Hospital, with 1300 patients, have exceptionally good programs. At the Indianapolis institution, moving pictures are shown every week and dances are held at twoweek intervals. The movies, selected by members of the staff, are those without exciting sequences.

Music for the dances is furnished by a WPA orchestra on many occasions. At other times a large phonograph is used. Concerts are held every afternoon in the summer, and patients play croquet, tennis, baseball and horseshoes. A central radio hookup to 57 different wards also brings music to the patients. Basketball has been discontinued, although some of the patients showed particular talent for the game, because it made the spectators too excited.

Look Toward Future

“Life at this hospital is made as pleasant and interesting as possible,” the survey stated. “Emphasis also is placed on occupational therapy.” Recommendations included the installation of more table tennis and billiard tables and shuffleboard courts. Similar recreational facilities are provided at the Evansville State

| Hospital. In addition the patients

| publish the “Woodmere News” | which deals with general news, gos- | sip and sports of the institution. | The hospital has its own choir and | orchestra and the wards organize picnics. During the Christmas holidays between 200 to 250 patients are taken on a supervised tour of dewntown Ewansville, which always ends at a drug store soda fountain. The survey recommended that a psychiatric recreational director be added to the staff.

Programs Improving Programs at the Richmond, Logansport and Madison State Hospitals are not so elaborate, Mr. Engel said, but they are being improved. The library has been expanded and a research director has been appointed at Logansport. A summer camp is maintained for patients at the Ft. Wayne School for Feeble Minded, and each child is taken to the camp for one week. Toys are made in the occupational therapy department, and organized sports and games are provided. No general recreational program is maintained at the Muscatatuck Colony for Feeble Minded at Butlerville, which now is being enlarged into a major state institution. When construction work is ompleted, however, a program modeled after the Ft. Wayne system is to be placed in effect. The recreational problem is particularly difficult at the Indiana village for Epileptics, Newcastle, since “the disease is a nervous disorder and quiet and rest are essential for the patients,” the survey said. Improved indoor recreational facilities are suggested.

Baseball Organized

Organized baseball and movies are the recreations provided for State Prison inmates. Prisoners work five and a half days a week. “There are a number of obstacles in the way of a more comprehensive leisure time program-—the most serious being the lack of a large assembly hall at the State Prison,” Mr. Engel said. “The present assembly hall capacity is 900 for a prison population of 2500. “A resumption of educational activities would be highly desirable at this institution.” The survey also suggested a prison newspaper be published and a radio hookup be provided. Prison authorities have indicated they plan to open the prison school soon. Athletics at the Indiana Reformatory, Pendleton, are highly organized. Prisoners’ teams play each other in “intermural leagues” and “varsity” baseball and football

teams meet outside amateur ag-

gregations. All games are played in the institution grounds, and noncompeting prisoners form rooting sections. Suggest Winter Sports The survey suggested that a building be constructed to house indoor recreational facilities for the winter months. The Indiana State Farm, Putnamville, has no adequate program. ’ State Farm officials, however, recently lifted the ban on cigaret smoking and are seeking to secure moving picture equipment. Because of the rapid turn over of short term prisoners it is difficult to organize a program, the survey pointed out. There is a recreation hall at the State Farm but no facilities. Many inmates organize their own impromptu musical programs, Mr. Engel said. “Social type” recreations are provided at the Indiana Women's Prison, Indianapolis. Coral groups and dramatic clubs have been organized. A good educational department is maintained, Mr. Engel declared. Praising the discipline system at this institution, the survey said: “Despite the fact that there are no weapons of any kind carried by any member of the staff, there have been no escapes from this prison for the past several years.” Greatest need of this institution is outdocs recreation, the survey pointed out. The Indiana Boys’ School, Plainfield, needs a program which will interest the boys in arts

and crafts and hobby clubs and a new swimming pool. The survey praised the program at the Indiana Girls’ School, Cler= mont and said:

Adopt Parole System

“This institution has adopted a policy of paroling girls to surround= ings away from their original homes. Many years of experience have proven that it is less difficult for them to make good in new surroundings than among old as=sociates.” The influx of World War veterans in recent years has lowered the average age of residents at the State Soldiers’ Home, West Lafayette, and brought the need for a more comprehensive program. Physical disabilities would exclude many from strenuous activities, the survey said. A planning director is needed. The Indiana Soldiers and Saile ors’ Children’s Home, Knightstown, “tries to provide a normal atmosphere for children,” the survey pointed out. Praise also was given to the rece reational setup at the Indiana State School for the Deaf and Ine diana School for the Blind. both of Indianapolis. A flower garden is being planted at the Blind School so that children may learn to iden tify flowers and shrubs by touch. Patients at the Indiana State Sanatorium, Rockville, need mild recreational activities. Mr. Engel said library facilities there are bee ing increased.

S. EAST ST. WORK CAUSES MORE SUITS

Two more suits against the City, demanding more damages in the improvement of S. East St. have been filed in Circuit Court. Ralph G. Esamann and Mr. and Mrs. Lueppo D. Buenting, who brought the suits, had been awarde« ed $3750 and $1400, respectively, for seizure of their property to widen the street, Mr. Esamann de~

manded $5000 and Mr. and Mrs, Buenting asked that their damages be fixed at $2500. Two other suits, asking increased damages in street improvement projects were filed last week.
