MUCH WORK IS BEING PLANNED

Because of its enterprise in school
center work Kenosha has gained a
place in the list of seventy one cities
having some paid social center work
ers just published in a report compiled
by Clarence Arthur Perry Of the Rus
sell Sage Foundation Department of
Recreation.
The work is getting on a more solid
basis. Seventy-one cities had, during
the winter of 1928, paid workers for
some form Of social center activity, as
opposed to fortyfour the previous sea
son, and the amount expended in the
maintenance of school centers has
grown from $139,535 in 1912 to 1921, 575
in the past year. There are 1927 paid
workers reported. This, with the vol
unteer workers, brings the number Of
persons engaged in social center direc-
tion considerably above the three
thousand mark
That the general social and recrea-
tional possibilities Of the "wider-use-
of the-school- PLAN movement are MAX
ing constantly greater appeal may
be seen from the fact that in 9S1
schoolhouses there were public enter
tainments and lectures in 496 school
buildings there were open meetings of
adults to discuss local problems; athle-
tics or folk dancing in 474 schools !;
and social dancing in 1870.
A notable development of "wider
use" in 1928 was for election and
other civic purposes. Bailoting during
elections took place in 529 school
houses; 259 buildings were used for
registering voters; and political rallies
to the number of 4S1 took place in
school edifces
Mr.. Perry reports great difficulty in
obtaining exact statistics OF social cen
ter activities. Little uniformity of
agreement exists as to what constitutes
a social center. Even the name itself
is not constantine institution is vari-
ously reported as recreation center, =
."civic center,0 "social and recrea-
tion CENTER" evening center, = com
munity center, etc. Some cities have
social center activities going on six
nights a week, while others open their
school buildings once or twice month.
We should, however, look beyond the
mere figures in judging social centers,
says Mr.. Perry. "Centers of indiyid-
ual growth and refinement, of civism
and social integration-th that is what
these places are, and no system of
numerals can ever be devised that will
convey an adequate notion of the vi
talizing influences which radiate from
them. z"

Support was lacking during the early
