Center to replace the one IN the
Frederiksted Fort. After a lengthy
discussion which included a report
by Stanley Coulter describing the
history and operation Of the pres
ent Detention Center. The Com
mittee decided that the program
developed by Mr.. Coulter was in
t~eresting and helpful despite adj
verse conditions; that the Center
was inadequate in space and facil-
tiles and that in view of the rising
incidents of delinquency especial
ly in the 18 to 81 age group, a
new center should be built.
The members and representa-
tives of the organizations present
were urged to encounter commun-
ity support and to contact the
Governor and the Legislature SO
that the present situation could be
remedied by the development OF
a Center at Annals Hope.
Discussed also was the need for
Fairgrounds in the small commun-
tiles such as Profit, Slob and La
vale and also in the towns OF
Frederiksted and Christiansted. A
subcommittee was appointed to
contact the Department of Public
WORKS and requested that certain
areas be leveled for use as play
grounds. When this is done, the
Bureau of Recreation will fence
them in and provide facilities for
the young children.
Alexander PATTERSON, Mr.. Wat
son, and Mrs. Beryl Francis were
appointed by Pastor Gordon, chair
man, to reorganize the Youth
Council in Frederiksted and to re-
quest from the Governor use OF
the old school lunch room build
ing, which could be developed in
to a Recreation Center similar to
the one in Christiansted.
Mrs. Anna Brodhurst and Floyd
Henderson were appointed to de-
: velop a similar program in Chris
