complished this.
There is more yet to be done in
this re-uniforming project with the
money that has been made avail
able. Results of this will be seen at
a later date, Mr.. Fraser reports.

City Decides To
Erect Bath House
Prior To Season

Reversing its original schedule,
the city has decided to proceed at
once with the construction of a
bath house at Shaw pool and have
this new recreation project ready
for use this coming summer.
Earlier plans had called for de-
laying construction until Fall, fol-
lowing the close of the pool
season.
Under it's revised program, it
is hoped to. have plans completed
and be ready to award the contract
for the one-story brick structure
by February 9th. Actual construc-
ton is scheduled to start March
18th with June 3Oth set as the
date for completion of the project.
Architects retained by the city
are Carr & Cunningham.
The new bath house, approx
mately As by 100 feet, will be
located north of the pool. 1t will
have a concrete observation deck.
Added space will be available
adjacent to the children's pool
through lease to the city by the
Board of Education of the 16 by SO
plot of ground to be vacated when
the West Stand at Shaw Field Is
renovated. The Board of Educa-
ton has already announced that
it will begin this renovation this
Spring.
Both City Manager Chas. A.
Cafran and City Manager NJ. Doug
las emphasize the f act that
while every effort will be made to
complete the bath house in time for
this summers pool season, they
fully realize that the tentative
schedule does not take into account
the delays so frequently encount-
cred in construction projects, delays
caused by weather, and other
causes beyond their control.
