OPT|M|STS PLAN TODEVELOP PARK
 NEARSF|NAL LAP
William B. Leedy, IT,, Ex- plains How It Will Be Done Without
 Taxation

Plan for the taking over of Green Springs park on a 5o-year lease from the city commission, are being rapid ly completed by the optimist club. according to W. B. Leedy, Jr., chair man of the committee. and it only remains for the city commission to sign the lease.
 This action will probably be taken at the meeting Tuesday morning. The commission has already agreed to the lease, MT. Leedy said, with the consideration that the Optimist club float the $100,000 bonds pro- posed and convert the park into an other recreation center for Birming. ham.
 The Green Springs park plan of the Optimst club calls for the erec- tion of q clubhouse with an IS-hole golf course. swimming pool. wad- ing pool, baseball diamonds, swings, ct least two tennis courts and the same number of handball courts. sandpile for the kiddies, cinder racing track, at least one-quarter of a mile in circumference, and other amusement attractions and conces- slons.
 Members of the Birmingham Bar association have volunteered their services in putting the proposition over.
 We intend to give Birmingham another park by floating bonds that will pay a dividend instead of car- ryng a three-mill tax" said W. B. Leedy, Jr. chairman of the commit tee. We believe this is the prac- tical way to increase the city's play ground facilities and amuse the young and old alike without add ing tax burdens. I believe it will be easy to sell the bonds and car ry the plan out"
 It is pointed out that in signing the lease giving the Optimist club charge of developing Green Springs park that the city commission will have the privilege to cancel the lease at any time during the term of the contract.

 According to Mrs. Harden, her hus- band was subject to attacks of cramp and she stated she had warn ed him against entering the water unattended.
 Mrs. Della Wood owner of the pool, testified she had closed it the night before about 10 o'clock, and that Harden had evidently entered it at later hour.
