tiles for the little folks. :.
The Breitmeyers were generous
about these things for years.
But older youths and adults
caused lots of trouble. :.
They drove automobiles through
the carefully planned shrub
berry, skidded their tires deeply
into flower beds, broke water
pipes and windows and
caused \ lot of damage Of this
nature. And some of them
got mighty sassy, too, when
cautioned about the damage.
That's why Breitmeyers is
closed for winter sports.
And getting back to Bert Nun
neley. Bert feels the way
that most sensible people feel
that the Breitmeyers went
the limit, and can't be blamed
for doing what they've done.
However, as q sportsman,
he wonders why it wouldn't be
possible maybe next year
for the city to make an
arrangement with the property
owners to lease this splendid
sports site for the winter sea-
son. This would probably
entail the setting up Of regulated
hours for the property's use
guards or attendants to be re-
sponsible for parking, etc. -.
and the installation of 4 bunk.

Sounds like a wonderful pros
pect il the Britmeyers
could be properly reimbursed
and their property protected
Yet, looking out at that
sun we think the subject
should not have been written
up until next winter.
