EIGHT WEEKS FOR FAIRGROUNDS
Association Will Open Six in the City on July S-Superv sion For the Childrens Play-What Apparatus VIII be Provided-More Members and Money Needed

At the board of trade rooms on Monday afternoon at 4.30 o'clock the directors of the Norwich Playground association held a meeting. at which they outlined the plans for the season of eight weeks at the six playgrounds which will be conducted under their supervision, As the formal opening time is July Sth. the weeks before then will be devoted to getting the grounds into order; placing the playground equipment, and also to securing more money through membership, as in or- der to carry out what is projected the association will need about $100 more than what is now available.
 Director and Supervisors.
 President J. B. Shannon conducted the meeting, and 1t was decided that there should be a general director in charge of the grounds, with a super visor, who will probably be a woman, at each of the grounds during the aft- ernoon. It is expected that the super Yisors will probably be school teach CTS, but if there are any others wish ting to take up the work the directors will be glad to receive applications. The money available for use this year has been divided half and half be- tween the amount needed for super visors and for apparatus, but it will not provide for salaries of, any size so that those who enter the work will give their services very largely.
 Neither the director nor any of the supervisors have yet been chosen.
 Need Site in Greeneville.
 No site for a playground has yet been secured in Greeneville, but it is hoped that a suitable site will be found in an available location, so as to give the full six grounds which the directors are figuring upon. The oth- CT five are on Lake street. at the Ho- bart avenue schoolyard, Falls school ward. Pearl street schoolyard, in the grove near the Round pond at Thamesville.
 The Apparatus Provided.
 For the smaller children sand boxes and baby swings are to be provided at each of the grounds. Games that the larger boys and girls will use will be ouoits for the boys and rope quoits for the girls, as well as seesaws' At the Lake street and Pearl street grounds there will be volley ball and two slides will be bought to be used at these two grounds. Wherever pos sible indoor baseball will be provided
 Even more apparatus than the com mittee has arranged for could be used sO that the directors suggest here is a way for interested friends to help by donating more apparatus. Seesaws are especially desirable and would be gladly received if some were donated
