PLANS TO ESTABLISH
ANOTHER PLAYGROUND

PASADENA, July 21.-Plans to make
another playground on the four-acre
campus of Thomas jefferson school are
being matured by the board of educa-

chain of Fairgrounds surrounding the

walking distance of one.

planned to make this merely the center
of the system, and let the schools fur
nish the others.
In vacation time they viii be kept
open during certain hours each day
with a competent supervisor in charge.
