Opinion of Rudolph.

1t is the belief OF Commissioner Rudolph
that the school buildings of the District
should be open to the pupils and to their
parents and families as recreation CEN
ters outside of the regular school hours.
They should, in his opinion, become the
radiating centers of social and cultural
activity in their respective neighborhoods,
in a spirit of civic unity and co-opera-
ton, emitting, however, all activities and
exercises tending to promote division or
discord.
In twelve American cities organized
recreation centers are maintained in one
or more school buildings, while. in ten
other municipalities, they are maintained
by some voluntary association, working
i'm cooperation with the school board.
Washington has $1O,OO0,O0O worth of
school buildings and Commissioner Ru-
doph takes the position that they should
be devoted TO supplemental as we'll as
regular educational purposes. The bill.
which Incorporates his views In the mat
ter, has been drawn by Corporation
Counsel Thomas.
