stand up as the best for 1949.
Last year Alexander shot 264 here,

Brawley = Big Help.

first two-game winning streak Of

George Washington needs only

A SUGGESTION

- 1oN @
WE SUGGEST THAT the area in Christiansted known
as the wharf be named JACKSON PARK in honor IF the
late u, Hamilton Jackson. This suggestion in no wav affects
the work and plans of the committee which has been form
ca ana IS tunctioning, and which has as its purpose the
erection OF a fitting memorial to this great leader. In fact,
this is the very committee which should be named to make
ana carry out plans for such a suggestion. Comprised of pub
hc-sp1rted citizens, many prominent in all walks of life,
this committee could, with relative ease, add this suggestion
to its plans, and carry it out more quickly and smoothly
-1an any other group that could be named.
LIE NATTER is simple The Legislature, in any ses-
Gas simply to introduce and pass upon a resolution.
hat done, the next step would be to name a group to carry
out the plans, and this group, being intact, could proceed
Immediately. A fitting program on some date decided up
on would be announced, and a program arranged and put
through.
IT is UNDERSTOOD that other plans are a-foot, but
one addition to whatever ideas might have already been
edvanced. We believe that St. Croix, and the Virgin Is
lands, for that matter, would be only too glad to cooper
e and make whatever contribution is necessary to carry
sit The plans of the committee. But,because of the nature
OF this suggestion, nothing more than the desire to name
such a park need be expressed at present. Funds will not
be needed, or any particular work called for.
EVERY COMMUNITY, everywhere, takes time out to
honor those who have u~nselfishly given of their time,
their efforts, and their lives that those left behind may be-
nefit, and certainly D. HAMILTON JACKSON uas such a
citizen. A statue, or whatever other memorial may be plan
ned, is fitting, but while arrangements are being made,
and plans perfected, the park could be named and dedi-
Gated.
WE BELIEVE that everyone will agree that there
is merit in the suggestion, and look forward to action by
the Council in this connection.
