Questions Need
Of Play Shelter

Members of the Palisades

sharply questioned plans for q
Recreation Department shelter

cause Of the new facilities.
Milo F. Christensen, Rec
reation Department superin-
tendent, told the association
trained supervisors would be

Children from the Hardy

Mr.. Christensen said there
is a good prospect of a Fort

derson introduced a resolution
opposing the enactment Of 9
law in the District to put 9

the way for other items to

Not so long ago the local lawmakers refused to name the Fred
eriksted Clinic in honor of Miss ngerborg Nesbitt, the outstanding
Nurse of the Virgin Islands. The reason was: No institution should
be named after a living person.
Not so long ago a high school was named after a distinguished
educator who, incidentally, is very much alive-the Claude c. Mar
koe School in Frederiksted.
Then there is the Canegata Ball Field, the Charles Emanuel
School at Kings Hill; the Clinic in St John, named in honor of for
ner Governor Morris F. de Castro and only a matter of a few weeks
ago, the Jane F. Tutt School in 81. Thomas.
incidentally, all the namesakes are not only very much alive,
but fairly young and in excellent health.
Miss Nesbitt is a credit to ST. Croix and the Virgin Islands; the
Senators would do well to give the Clinic in FTederiksted a name
The Ingeborg Nesbitt Clinic.
Police officers who give tests to applicants for auto licenses
should themselves be good, careful drivers. They should also know
that citizens who, through their taxes pay them good salaries, de-
serve to be treated at all times with courtesy.
Great credit is due Commissioner of Agriculture Louis Brown
for the work now being done in the parks in Frederiksted and
Chrisuansted.
How about Limprichts Park2 Somebody must be pretty angry
because it has not been turned into a parking lot-not MFs Brown, of
course, he awaits final word from His Excellency, the Governor.
Joseph Alexander, distinguished citizen of ST. Croix, was
honored recently for his forty years of service to the community.
Old Sunday Market was named in his honor-for a day. 1t would
not be a bad idea to make the name permanent. He deserves it.
We are not certain of this. but it was rumored that the local
Democrats planned to give Mr.. Alexander the heave-ho at the next
election. This would be very difficult to accomplish after all the
nice things said of Mr.. Alexander a few nights ago
The Festival Village in Christianstea this yer will be located
among the trees near the basketball court-an excellent idea.

Father Dion, 46, must use

He expects to fly to the Soviet

The communist approval for
