4-H Training Center
For TiIden Street

tion of America, Inc, may not
establish training center at 2700
Tilden street NV. the Board of

day.

position at a hearing in the Dis
trict Building from number Of

group representatives.

posed to have groups Of from rs
to 80 young people stay at the

a time during about Is weeks of

residential section. and it was
brought out that the foundation
would seek exemption from taxes
on the eight-acre tract, property
Of the Roper estate.

tions to the Blessed Sacrament
