zens' committee. Miss Shagaloff
stated: 1T has chosen instead 10

Matti A. Livingston

What is happening to our recre-
alton program? Quite a few were
at the Rendezvous skating rink on
last Monday night, which is the
regular skating night, but to no
avail. The roller rink was not open
and did not open. We were all dis
appointed, but will we stand up for
our rights? The Negro recreation
program in Mesa, is limited to
begin with, therefore we need to
fight to keep what we have, and to
acquire more. To let the recrea-
ton center's skating night disap-
pear would be to add to the idle
ness and boredom already prevail
ent here. Let's see what we can
do to get it back and keep it.
While mentioning recreation, we
might add that the Escobedo swim
ming pool is open from l to
daily except Wednesdays when it
is open from l to 9. Swimming is
refreshing, fun, and good exer-
else. If you don't swim, you should
learn;- if you already know how,
60 out and swim this summer.

exercising a constitutionally guar
anteed right" in conducting de-
monstrations that resulted in ar
rests.

it could to ease the situation there
and called on President Kennedy
to make firm statement on the
situation.

sters said yesterday it plans 10
