Leroy Lazenberry and Rev
Council, in company with John
Pettiford, president of the Oxford
Booster Club, met with Frank
Loss, commissioner of Parks and
Recreation and Public Buildings,
and members of his staff on We'd
nesday, October II, to iron out
differences over the physical fit
ness for youth program which was
recently introduced.
Said Mr.. Lazenberry LAS stated
by the Department, this proposal
is a special ordinance to provide
additional budget funds of $780,
900. for the Department of Parks
and Recreation and Public Build
ings for a Bituminous Program, by
permitting an increase Of the tax
ing limit for the year 1868 only. 1t
will cost each taxpayer approx
mately $2.49 for each 500, he now
pays. There will be no additional
cost"
North Central Council took the
position that the Department was
morally obligated to include the
Oxford playground in the program.
Rev. Floyd Massey, pastor Of Pill
grim Baptist Church, stated. I'VE
cannot in conscience support this
special ordinance if we are not to
participate in the benefits of the
program that requires an increase
in our taxes"
After vigorous discussion COM
missioner Loss agreed to a second
meeting held on Friday, October
10, at the oxford playground to
further explore the question.
At this meeting it was decided
by Robert A. Lobdell, superintend-
ent of Recreation, and Bernard
EdnundE, senior Landscape ArChi-
tect, that the two tennis courts
which were requested by the North
Central Community Council could
be accommodated as we'll as a sec
ond basketball court.
Mr.. Lobdell promised to recon-
mend their decision to Mr.. Loss
Immediately. Mr.. Lazenberry and
Mr.. Pettiford represented their
groups at this meeting and con-
ferred with the committee on the
questions at hand.
Later in a statement to members
Of the advisory committee Of North
Central Community Council, Mr..
Lazenberry said, when Mr.. Loss
includes these new additions in his
schedule for the physical fitness
for youth program, we will have
no choice but to support this spec
ial ordinance.
Since the benefits from this
program are unquestionably vital
and important, we urge the people
Of our area as well as throughout
the city to go to the polls and vote
in favor of it,"

Oklahoma City (ANP) - An
Oklahoma City woman, like driv-

parking problem. Her mistake,
however, was the selection of a

Police said she parked a car
with stolen license plate, loaded
with stolen goods, in the sheriffs
parking lot, in the path of a police
man writing parking tickets.

Another Fqetor In Alleged Free Time

Anofher Factor In Alleged Free Time
Another factor which reduces free time
but which does not commonly appear in
statistical computations is the increase in
time devoted to transportation back and
forth from work. A century ago, the over
whelming majority of factory workers lived
in areas Immediately adjacent to the fac
tories in which they were employed. Farm
ers, who then constituted a much larger
percentage of the labor force, spent no
more time travelling than the time needed

store a free economy based on

~ The Kng-Anderson bill is
not the right answer for medical
care for the aged. al 1t does not
provide for ANY medical care, but
for hospital care only. By 1t would
benefit many who would not need
it and provide nothing for INDECENT
aged who need public assistance.

auctions from wages would be ex-
horbitant. | favor the Kerr-MillS
bill and would recommend that
Arizona adopt it as state-federal
partnership program for medical
and hospital care for needy aged.
