ONLY one WING OF BATH -
HOUSE TO Be BUILT NOW
Bid Is High and Only Portion
of Bath House Is to Be
Built This Year

Only one bid was received by the
park board last night for the con-
struction Of the bath house at Dia-
mond Point. Owing to the fact that
the bid was much higher than was
anticipated, it was decided to build
only one of the wings Of the struc-
ture. The bid for the general con-
tract was $16,59O. A separate bid
for the plumbing was $2,375.5O, and
for the wiring $3.50, making a total
for the building complete s19,445.50.
This figure, it was felt by the board,
was too much to expend this year and
the decision to build only part OF
the building resulted. @ ..'~~-1.'.
The portion to be built will accom-
modate about 125 persons. Lockers
will be installed for both men and
women. The capacity of the wing
will be almost evenly divided as to
accommodation for men and women
The building will be "a feet by Ga
feet. ff-@ ~ @se
There will be toilet facilities. A
cement floor will be laid and every
thing made absolutely modern and
sanitary Frank Patterson has again
been engaged as park officer for the

taken by the Women's Civic and
Community club regarding boxing
and wrestling matches in the city

attention to the fact that the club
does not oppose boxing and wrestling
as athletic sports, but objects to the

which, the club believes, has attract
ed an element which has made these

The objection is based on the de-
