CAMPING AND PICNIC
GROVE ON THE MESA is
PLAN OF LAS CRUCES
(speeIaI Correspondence TO The journal. /,


Las Cruces, N. NJ, April l.
Palms are making to establish a
tourists camping and picnic grove
on the mesa, mile east of town
The project is backed by the Las
Cruces Chamber OF Commerce, rep
resented by special committee
consisting of Gustave Manasse,
Capt. Charles Hill and Fred S.
Hess,
B. Frank Weisenhorn, a director
of the chamber. who suggested the
plan, said the camping ground and
grove would be a strong attraction
for cross country tourists as well
as visitors from points in New Mex
leo and west Texas.
Hundreds would come from Ell
Paso and points In the southwest"
Mr. Weisenhorn said. "The idea is
to set aside from twenty TO forty
acres of land plant trees, shrubs
and flowers. Erect a number of
buildings for the accommodation of
visitors"
Captain Hill a member of the
town board of trustees. suggested
that the municipality should sup
ply water from the nearby pump
ing station, also furnish other ia
cilities at its disposal.
Present plans are to begin work
on the camp within thirty days.
