Defer ACTION ON MATTER
OF NEW JUVENILE COURT
Council Committee Refers PROPOSE
ton to Mayor and Others for
Their Recommendation.

With Chairman Claude l.. Batkins
presiding and every member present
the Public Buildings Committee OF
Council last night voted unanimously
TO refer the whole matter of the pur-
chase Of site for Juvenile court
and detention home building to the
Director OF Public Works, the Mayor
the CITY Attorney and the justice OF
the Juvenile Court, with the request
that they recommend Il suitable site.
The action was taken on motion of
Councilman Dickcrson. An amend
ment offered by Alderman Jack L..
Epps was adopted providing for a
subcommittee to act with tho City of,i-
Gals named. Chairman Batkins ap-
pointed Alderman Epps and Council
men Ladd and Dickerson 10 scrve on
this subcommittee.
Action by the committee followed a
hearing given Justice j. Hoge Kicks,
who recommended the purchase of
about l13 feet on Broad Street ad-
joining Memorial Hospital. lie said
me land was available and could he
had Al about 500 a front foot. JUS
ticc Kicks told the committee he had
inspected the Womans College prom
cry and other sites, but he preferred
the Broad Street location. He sug-
gested building on this lot court
mouse, a detention home and Il pub
lie playground. The playground. he
said. could be used part or the day
by inmates OF the detention home
and part By children OF the commun
lily. There is no playground cen
trally located. he said. and The need
is sadly apparent.
Alderman Epps suggested as a bet
yer site for tho playground the old
Seabrookc warehouse property, which
is owned by the city, and said the
Juvenile Court might be moved TO the
Clty Han when the firm alarm offices
IN Inc fourth story are transferred
20 the new station TO be built in
Monroe Park. Mr.. Epps strongly on
Poscd building Il playground In close
proximity 10 the hospital. He suc
gested also Il Site on the outskirts nf
inc city for the proposed detention
nome. Judge Kicks was firm in his
contention that tho Broad Street sitc
was me most desirable TO be had. Tho
committee Will take up the matter for
turther action when report and
recommendations have been subm;,;nd

months. died Thursday afternoon Of
last week. She was the daughter Of
Mr. and Mrs. Robf. castner, OF TINS
place.
AS the -esuk OF pneumonia and

case became hopeless. Earsy last week
her parents took her to Huntington
for treatment but returned Thursday
afternoon. The child was in a dying
condition upon arrival at home. and
lived only a short while. The com
munity was shocked by the sad news,
as the seriousness OF the child's con-
dition was not generally known.
The body was taken TO Huntington
Friday for interment
Mr.. Castner is in charge OF the de-
velopment of oil leases owned in this
county by the New Domain Oil & Gas
company. Since locating in Louisa H.
and Mrs. Castner have made nlaHy
friends. They are very amiable and
worthy people. Little Bette was a
child OF unusual beauty and bright
ness. At fair held here last fall she
was selected as the prettiest baby.
The deepest sympathy is felt for the
bereaved parents and the Two little
