PLAY FACILITIES
PLAN SUBMITTED
3 Agencies Receive Proposal
to Coordinate Direction
of Use.

Creation of the associated DEPART
fnents of play and recreation for the
District, under which a co-ordinated
plan and control of all playground
facilities in the city would be set up,
has been proposed to the three agencies
involved by the District Recreation
Committee, created more than a year
ago.
The plan was submitted to the
Board of Education yesterday by
Henry I. Quinn, who represented the
board and the Community Center De-
partment on the committee. 1t has
also been submitted to the Once Of
National Capital Parks, Buildings and
Reservations by Frederic A. Delano,
representing that agency, and to the
District Playground Department by
Commissioner George E. Allen, acting
for the District government.
The plan would leave the three sep
erate governmental units autonomous
in the control Of the properties they
now have, but would concentrate the
planning for the use Of all facilities
in the Office of Lewis r. Barrett, CO.
crdinator of recreation.
Five Divisions Proposed.
Under Barrett, five divisions would
be created, each to coordinate the
affected property and equipment of
the Playground Department, the Com
fnunity Center Department and the
National Capital Parks.
"a These departments would be: Com
3nunity center division, playground
and playfleld division, municipal sports
division, swimming and bathing pool
division and public permit division.
g The associated departments would
be assisted by the permanent commit
tees. The first, the program CO.
ordinating committee, would "formu-
late and develop complete. compre-
hensive and co-ordinated recreational-
educational program, utilizing all re-
sources under the control of the
agencies participating in this joint
effort and with due regard for the
autonomy of each"
Would Correlate Plans.
The other, the co-ordinating plan
committee, would be ito make a criti-
cal study with recommendations of the
improvement plans, the construction
plans and the use plans for all such
properties, this study to be for the
purpose of securing the maximum
In co-ordinated use development for
al such properties"
The agreement also limits the ex-
penses Of maintenance and services
of the associated departments to not
more than S4,500, not including the
salary of the co-ordinator. His salary
already is cared for by the National
Capital Parks. The remaining ex-
penses would be divided equally among
the three participating agencies, each
limited to not more than $500 per
year.
= In submitting the proposed agree
sment to the Board of Education,
Quinn stressed the fact that all school
and community center properties
would remain under the direct con-
troll OF the boards own employees.
No action was taken by the board
yesterday. but Quinn indicated he
would ask approval at a subsequent
meeting.

In the rush Of reporters to tele.
