DAYTON CULTURAL CENTER
BEING STUDIED HERE

Dayton of the future will have a
cultural and architectural face-lift-
ing if plans under consideration by
the city plan board are carried out.
Included in the long-range pro-
gram are possible future sites for a
new municipal auditorium, library,
educational building, industrial mu-
scum, museum and other public
buildings.
The plan includes development of
a marginal river boulevard along
the Miami river and cutting of a
new street through the western
section of the downtown business
district.
Highlight of the program is
erection of a municipal auditorium
on the north side of Monument
avenue, near Wilkinson street. If
approved, the program will be de-
veloped in conjunction with the
civic center plan recently recon-
mended to city and county COM
missioners by Park Wineland, pres
ident of the city plan board.
Officials emphasized the cultural
center plan is long-range program
designed to care for the future needs
of the city. Before final approval, it
may be subject to extensive revision.
Of practical Importance is the
proposal for buildings on the sites
Of Steele high school and Memorial
hall. An educational building or
library would be erected on the site
Of Steele high school, while an in
dustrial museum has been desig-
mated for the Memorial hall site.
AS yet, no funds have been voted
or provided for the program. If the
plan is adopted some time by the
city commission it would be fl
nanced by bond or tax levy.
Other highIights of the cultural
center plan include:
Extending Perry street one block
north from First street to Monu-
The daily bulletin. [volume] (Dayton, Ohio) 1942-1946, 1946-07-16

ment avenue. This area, bordered
by Perry, Wilkinson and First
streets and Monument avenue
would be used as a parking lot.
Erecting public building on the
west corner of Monument avenue
and Perry streets.
The plan board in many instances
merely has designated locations Of
future public buildings. Actual type
of building to be erected on the site
will be determined by city officials.
The proposed new street through
the western section of the downtown
business district will run from
Stratford and Monument avenue to
Fourth street.
The following tax valuations have
been placed on the land involved in
the cultural center program: Park
ing lot area, 1925, 400; museum,
S54,59O; library, $537,3 $40; educa-
ton building, S65, 5,48O; auditorium,
S268,O60 and public building, $751;
O8O.
Actual cost of acquiring the land
is expected to be higher. In view of
a large sum needed to obtain land
for a library, it is felt the building
probably would be located on the
Steele high school site.

"The ugly facts are that the ma

poor, and there must be a speeding
up in economic development.
Disclosure of the British Social

gram was made later in the house
of commons by Arthur Creech-

who said, 1--WE are actively engaged

He has lived a long time, but he
has not outlived his dream which
so many people do when they get
equally deep into the decades.
Mr.. Coburn would like to see a
really good national repertory thea
ter in this country, something say
like the Old Vic, or the Comedie
Francaise. He keeps thinking-as
distinct from hoping-that maybe
some weary, wealthy American will
die some day in such keen disap-
pointment that this country has nc
such theater that he will leave all
his money to start one.
MIR. Coburn has dreamed that
for a great many years now and
nothing has ever happened, but he
keeps on not giving up hope. And,
if nothing comes of it, it still makes
pleasant curtain speech theme
and Mr.. Coburn one of the most
pleasant curtain speakers any one
ever heard.
The first thing he would give his
repertory theater would be financial
ulucpcIlQeICe.
"A repertory theater," he says,
should never have to think of max
ing money. Once it finds it needs
money to exist on. it must think of
plays that the public wants, or plays
that will be hits. That is what is
wrong with the current theater. My
repertory theater would just be
able to think in terms of good
plays, not hit plays"
Mr.. Coburn would not want 1t mis-
understood. He is not unalterably
opposed to hit plays. He has spent
a lifetime loving them as much as
any one-in their place. He would
not bar them from his repertory
theater. He just would not devote
the theater exclusively to those
which had the elements of great
popular success.
Another Of Mr.. Coburn's dreams
is that young people some day will
nave university drama groups in
which to learn acting, as they used
to learn 1t in stock companies which
flourlshed everywhere. He thinks
that will come too, maybe even
before the repertory theater.
He breaches the two themes
everywhere, quite inspiringly.

Well, the day came. "State of the
Union" was the Pulitzer play. BY
now the critics should be beaten to
a pulp. Instead, however, their
enemies are disarmed and the
critics are laughing their charac-
teristically sardonic laughs, the
ones with the acid dripping from
their teeth.
True, the Pulitzer judges proved
their manhood in voting Howard
Lindsay and Russell Grouse the
prize every one-but the critics
thought they deserved for State of
the Union"
But, having done that, they
proved themselves just as vulnerable
as the critics had been before them
by failing to select a prize noval.
With hundreds to choose from,
even more than there were of plays
for the critics to choose from, they
defaulted.
Nobody, it seems, can fully make
up his mind about anything any
more.
With the exception of the Atlantic
City pageant judges who choose
Miss America, and those who select
blue ribbon bulls, prize pickles and
best blackberry Jams at State and
county fairs.
Perhaps this will be the year when
these judges also default and reach
the weary conclusion that there is
really no Miss America, no blue
ribbon bull, no prize pickle and no
blackberry jam worth stealing,
much less winning an award.
Maybe whoever decides such
things has decided 1916 shall be a
year Of no decision.

Charles Coburn, looking sort of
Falstaf1ian even without the pad
ding he wears in "The Merry Wives
of Windsor" was guest of honor
at a rather swirling sort of cocktail
party at the Club Duet the other
afternoon. Loew's, Inc, was host
and had invited some persons of the
press, radio and other media of
communication to drop around and
find out what Mr.. Coburn had on
his mind. Unlike the merely
glamorous people of the stage and
screen, Mr.. Coburn is superb guest
Of honor at such parties. He has
mind and something on 1t, and he
comes equipped with anecdota
enough for rather a large library.
The latter is for those press party
guests who don't have to write
columns and just like to hear good
stories.
For the columns -to-fill people, Mr..
Coburn is especially a handy fellow.

The Gordon Bumpers, who

launch what promises to be one
of the Scarlet and Gray's most

Both teams will present their

that Wiggy Keeler will do the

The regular Local IL summer

held at the Civic Auditorium at
8 p. m. on Monday, Sept. g.
There will be the usual number
of 10 bouts on the program,
which will bring together some
of the best amateur talent in
this part of the country.
In the past, the Local II box
ing shows have been well re-
ceived by the boxing fans of To-
ledo and it is the aim of the

only the highest type of boxing
shows for the entertainment of
Local IL members and the box

was a no-hitter for Lennie, which
enters his name in the Local IL
Softball League Hall of Fame.
Al Lohbauer pitched for the Ma
tiCnals and did a good job, but it
was the WHY'S Unit night with
things just going their way.
In another close and well
played game, the Gordon Bump
ers edged out the Toledo Indus
trial Rubber nine at Wilson
Park by the score of 2 to l. The
two teams are running neck
and-neck in the league standings
and both were bent on victory.
Walter Wodarski was the win
ming pitcher and was ably assist
ed by Bob Barker behind W
plate. Lamar Brown tWirled
the losers and Johnny Grand dfd
the catching, but four Rubber
errors were blamed for the de-
feat. Both teams were very
evenly matched in all other de-
partments of the game.
The DeVilbiss players pounc-
ed on the eager beavers of the
Acklin Unit and set them back
a pace to the tune of 6 to l in a
seven inning game at WHY'S
Park. Val Warchol continued
his string of pitching victories
as he turned back the Acklin
batters with only seven hits.
Ollie PAGER twirled for the los
ers but the three errors of his
teammates helped in the loss.
In the largest hitting spree of
the night, the merciless P.A.C,
nine wallopped the Toledo ToolT
at Beatty Park, scoring Is runS'
to I, for the Toolers. The Toolers
changed their battery around
several times to get the win
ming combination but the P.A.C.
murderer's row would not let up
on their hitting. Every man on
the P.A.C. hit safely in the slug
fest.
The other two games on the
schedule found the Toledo Scales
taking the measure of the Math-
er Springs at WHY'S Park, by
the score of 5 to /, while the
Hall Mfg. Unit won by forfeit
from the Save Electrics, when
the latter failed to make an ap-
