PARK PROJECTS

Recreational Enterprises on West Side Are

Announced.

Two new West side recreation projects, one of them a unique “self-help” development, were outlined today by Park Superintendent Paul V. Brown. A new playground will be located just north of W. New York st. on the east levy of White river, and residents of the Coleman park neighborhood have volunteered labor, materials and funds with which to convert an abandoned NYA workshop in the park into a

Legal the playground site adjoining White river are being untangled today by Mr. Brown and representatives of the Willlam B. Walrath Co. ad-

use of the land to the city. Over Four Acres Available

Some four and a half acres of urgently-needed playground property will be made available to West side youths through the gratis lease. Baseball backstops, swings and other standard equipment will be constructed on the grounds. The project will not interfere with Victory gardening in that area, Mr. Brown pointed out. Raliying behind the neighborhood Business Men's association, the OCD and the park department, Coleman park district citizens have already begun their community house conversion job, Between five and seven hundred dollars have been pledged to finance the move by merchants and individual residents, Mr. Brown asserted. When completed, the remodeled building will contain four large rooms, one of them scheduled for use as another “teen-canteen,” said the park superintendent. The park is at W. Michigan and King sts. Skilled war plant mechanics and technicians have offered their “off time” services in behalf of the move, and merchants have consented .to install free of charge certain craft and recreation equipment, he added. New flooring, lighting and painting and other repairs have all been contributed. .

Plan Well Organized

“This is the first time in the history of the park department that a self-help project has been undertaken with such spontaniety and co-operativeness,” declared Mr, Brown. “The folks in that neighborhood appear to be well-organ-ized and they didn’t hesitate to give their full support to the proposal when it was explained that the park

a | department possessed neither the

| funds nor the labor. “This worthy project should serve {as an example of what can be done !if a community is willing to roll up its sleeves and go to work” The park board yesterday named {April 15 as “park and playground lelean-up day” on which city school youngsters will assist park depart{ment employees in clearing the [oo of winter debris,
