NEWS
By ERNIE EPPS

That Navy pilot who insisted on
looming over the city at near street.
level wasn't the only thing that
interrupted the placidness of this
quiet community yesterday l..
Other noises were brewing
Noises that might make the roaring
engine seem like a whisper once
they gain full vent.
Behind the rumblings were two
of the city's key athletic and rec
reation directors >. Jack Hender-
son Benny Yack.
Rumors Of friction between the
public schools and recreation COM
mission prompted us to approach
these two gents with this question
why don't these two Taxpayer
supported organizations get along
like they do in other cities?"
Henderson was the first one we
asked and he denied friction, say
ing that "The recreation depart
ment has never asked for any
thing It hasn't received" and
then went into detail to explain
how cramped his program Is be-
cause of a pathetic need of facili-
ties.
Yack was contacted next and he
also denied that any dissension
existed BUT offered to bare his
letter files to prove that Mr.. Hen
derson missed the head of the nail
when he spoke Of what the rec
reation had received from BOE 4.
and then went into detail to ex-
plain that HIS program was sty-
mied, too BECAUSE OF NO
FACILITIES.
Both gentlemen were very con-
vincing in what they preferred
in two separate, hour-long dis
cussions Each had sheaves
of paper with lengthy why and
wherefore letters .. schedules Of
coming events past records
-. facts and figures and IDEAS.
Jack wants Junior High School
set up.
He's already started a campaign
for it.
Ben wants a municipal CIVIC
center.
He's hollered himself hoarse for
1t.
It will be interesting to watch
which one gets his wish
Benny points out that Wyan-
dotte's high percentage Of paroch-
ial students, most of them with
out ANY recreation facilities
should be considered first
"They pay taxes, too" ack feels
his present program is SO taxed
it prevents his athletes from gain
ing an equal footing with other
cities "Some of our kids
compete with other school ath-
Ietes who are two years older"
These are Just the tiniest portion
of woes besieging Jack Henderson
and Benny Yack All Of them
would fill six volumes Of fine print.
But Is ii hard to figure out that
some Of the problems could be
worked out on cooperative basis?
Couldn't a little more be accom-
plished IL the school board and
recreation commission worked
hand In hand to make the most
out Of what they've got?
We agree with the two directors
There's no diSSension between
their set ups How could there
be2 They hardly know what the
other is doing.

Reidy Returns 70
Irish Lineup

st. Patrick's cagers will depend
on the same lineup that finished
fourth in Third Divisions standings
with a record of seven wins and
seven losses to carry them through
the coming State Parochial Tourn-
ament.
Seriously handicapped by the
loss of Francis Reidy who suf-
fered leg injury late in the sea-
son, the Irish went into a tall
spin that dropped them from a
second place tie into fourth.
Reidy has completely recovered
from the injury and will be ex-
pected to furnish the spark of the
local schools attack.
Forward Bill Barraco. only Irish
player mentioned on Detroit's All
Star Catholic team, is also being
counted on to aid the school in the
post season classic.

TALLAHASSEE, June 90
Georgia has joined North Caro-
lima in imposing a quarantine
against persons entering those
states from Florida, because of
the presence of polio in this
state, Governor Caldwell an
nounced today. He added that
he will discuss the quarantine
with Georgia's governor, as he
had with the governor of North
Carolina, to try to have it lifted
or modified.
Florida's State Board of
Health said that Georgia's &C
ton was similar TO putting up
the bar after the horse has
escaped from the stable.
He eXplainde that several
weeks have passed since the first
case of polio appeared in Flor
ida this summer, and he asserted
that the disease, with only $50
eases in the state, has not reached
the proportion of an epidemic.
Besides, he concluded, polio
apparently has reached its crest
and is now declining.
