property in this district for

We have noticed very inter-
esting fact, and that is that
nearly all the new playfields in
Tacoma are located in the neigh
borhood of different park board
members. 1t seems rather sad
that the only commissioner that
could help us on this has a
strange aversion to playfields,
particularly in Old Tacoma.
However, we are not giving up
in spite of snubs we get from

gestions that will help us on
this, We would certainly like TO
hear them.
