 The plants were recentl:' set on the embankmert by employees of the department who are engaged in the program recommended by Buperin- tendent Curtin for the beautlflca- ton of oil parks in the city.
 Damage hes been caused by ire. Quenters of the ennbankment the past several years, but the depart. Iment, not wishing to become ins volved in controversy with ofiicials of the various leagues against the general public, filed no complaint, The damage caused Sunday afters noon, however, was too great to be passed without notice.
 William echofleld, director of ath- letlcs ct Crosby high school, said the action of the superintendent oi parks is most coEnniendable one, He said the cofiers of the athletic association of Crosby will be stimu. lated, perhaps, through an increase in the number of paid admissions since the grandstanders located on the bank had never been known to contribute towards the financial success of the high school teams, Coach James Lee at Wllby told the Democrat the Green and White well comes tho suggestion of MT.
