CENTERS
IN ROCK ISLAND
ARE ADVOCATED
Community Recreation Idea Ad-
ranced by Home Bureau Unit
Dances and Games Favored.

Community recreation centers
for Rock Island" is to be the slogan
at the December meeting of the ROCK
Island unit OF the Rock Island
county home bureau.
The matter of providing chap
eroned amusements for the young
folk of the city was discussed by
members of the unit at their No
yember session, and the whole
question is so much to the fore
that it will be the topic for the De
celnber session also, in the hope
that action will follow 1t is the
plan Of the promoters to present
the case for the young people be-
fore the Woman's club OF the city
and the various Parent-Teachers'
associations.
In Moline the matter is being agi-
tated to such an extent that a
meeting will be held in the city hall
tomorrow evening to organize a
school for play leaders," as an aft
ermath of the play institute recent
ly held in Moline.
If the school is organized,
through afhliation with the Com
munity Service of Chicago, the
leaders in recreation who repre-
sent various groups will be sup
piled with fresh material monthly
from Chicago in the way of the
latest games and diversions recon-
mended for community recreation.
1t is pointed out by members of
the Rock Island home bureau unit
that in Peoria five school buildings
are used for community recreation,
and that one school building is
used every night in the week ex-
cept Sunday by the people, one eve
ming a week being reserved for
adults as well as for the youth OF
the city.
The promoters of the movement
claim that if dances were held in
well established centers, and prop
erly chaperoned it would mean q
great deal to the young people OF
the city especially.
