SITE FOR PUMPING
PLANT IS Sought
Works Board Wants Part of
the SOuthside Playground
for Purpose

The playground commission was ad
vised at its meeting yesterday after
noon that the board of public works
desires a portion of the southside play
grounds on which to install a pumping
station in an ornamental building sim
liar to the one of the Spring Valley
company at Pleasanton. The matter
was referred to a special committee
Commissioner Astredo reported
visitacion valley, but advocated one
near the Portola school, the residents
in that vicinity agreeing to grade the
site.
The board of education advised that
the ground at Nineteenth and Angelica
streets, on which it was proposed to
build the Marshall primary school, is
not sufficiently solid, so the school will
be erected on the land west of the
girls high school, and the site in
Nineteenth street can be used by the
commission.
Commissioner Astredo was selected
to go before the teachers institute at
Sacramento during the latter part of
the month to give an illustrated lee
ture on Fairgrounds.
The residents of Clay street be-
tween Cherry and Walnut requested a
tennis court on the Madison play
grounds, but this was refused owing
to lack OF funds.
The offer of Isabella Fleisher to
serve as volunteer superintendent of
the girls play at the North beach
grounds was accepted.
T. E. Atkinson was employed to es-
tablish a system Of book keeping for
the commission.
The matter of beautifying several
grounds was referred to a special COM
mittee.
The commission. which started with
two grounds for children, now has
eight under it's charge, five of which
are being developed. The commission
will prepare a report for distribution
in reply to numerous requests.
The city attorney advised the COM
mission that the transfer of school lots
for playground purposes does not con-
vey any rights to them in the COM
mission and that such right can be con-
veyed only by the board of super
visors.

/ try is more open than at any point
since the advance began and the SOL
diers can be moved with greater
speed.
Since Boaca was captured there has

Boaca is of the direct line OF advance

treated there for a battle is consid-
cred evidence OF the fact that they at
tempted a stragetic move 10 protect

that the administration forces have

only 1000 men took part In the battle.
