Mayor Tom Knotts' new park board
met In his private office in the Gary city hall last nlht for organization
purposes and a talkfest. It elected
officers. All posts were filled an the

chairman; Rev. A. C. Mayo. Homer Carr and C. P. Davidson.
Ordinary members Edward Kibe
and Col. Frank Zawadzkt.
Differ on Site. Following the handing out of the
jobs the board entered into a spirited
discussion as to the best location for parks, letting of contracts, etc. That as to location was evidenced from last night's session. Although everybody
got an office but Messrs. Kibe and Zawadxki, they will be taken care of at
a later session by being placed on
some committee.
It was agreed by all that there
should be a lake front park and a
boulevard system running around the
town. The site committee is expected to make a report later on. However,
as matters stand on the Site commit
tee, Mr. Carr Is for having the big site
in the first subdivision, Mr. Davidson on the lake front, Mr. Mayo far down
near the Bryan property In the south part of town, for which he is the agent, while Col. Tim Englehart, who is not a member of the board but who is a potent factor nevertheless, is moving heaven and earth to have the park down at Rldae road. This Is practically Gary's third park board. The other two were legislated out of existence as the council got too Jealous of their activities. Hull Moonerft Rewarded. And another thing is that the new board was instituted for political purposes. For instance, Mr. Davidson is chairman of the Tom and A. F. Knotts bull moose party in Lake county. Mr. Carr. who several months Rgo was for having Mayor Knotts dethroned and punished for "being Gary's greatest stumbling block," has since been pacified by having all of the city council printing restored to him. being given a park commlseionership, the park secretaryship, and on Monday was appointed by the mayor as delegate to the conservntion congress. Further honors are said to be in store for Mr. Carr. (.lrann' Selection Pleases. Bill Cain, the city hall contractor, president of the board of education, park commissioner, treasurer of the park bosrd, etc., accepted a place on the board to see that the "taxpayer's rights or protected" and that the new contracting combine keeps within its proper limits. Mr. Mayo was Mr. Knotts' chief spellbinder in the city ca mpalgn. It was aarreed by all that the selection of Mr. Gleason as park chairman was the best thing that the board could have done in the way of getting a chief, although Messrs. Carr and Mayo were willing to have the mantle fall on them, but they were not called upon to make the sacrifice.

It will cost $40,000 and wil be a fitting causeway connecting Munster with the beautiful residential district of Hammond, a district that is rapidly extending southward. Ilnlinri efs Her. The people of Hobart were jrratlfied when the county counfilmen made an appropriation of 1:5,000 for a steel bridge over Peep river at that place. This bridge was badly needed and will aid in the development of Hobart as the most important residential suburb of Gary. There was an enthusiastic delegation from Hobart working In the Interest of this appro
priation. The bridge over Hart's ditch on the ridKe road is badly needed and Is proIded for by an appropriation of $12,000. This will help to make the ride road one of the most beautiful autmoblle drives in the state of Indiana. Owing- to the fact that Lake County's valuation is nine times as larife as that of Newton county it was necessary for Lake County to make an appropriation of 90 per cent of th cost of the Joint bridge over the Kankakee river at Kchneider.
