While there they bought a new car but had only driven it a few Man By LINDA WALTON Sentinel Staff NEW SMYRNA BEACH Ten acres of land, 41 ambitious young men and a lot of sweat will make a a i onal area for youngsters in this area a reality. Jaycees, though one of the newest in the city, introduced the idea of a recreation park more than a year ago to Mayor William S. Hathaway and other city commissioners. It was well received and before long, aided by the backing of several organizations including Northside Civic Center, the city leased ten acres adjacent to the football stadium to the Jaycees. WORK started this year by rejuvenating an existing Little League Softball field and a second, entirely new field will be completed soon, as well as a rifle range.

The whole project is expected to be complete in five years and will include the two softball fields with the possible addition of a third field for adults; two championship type tennis courts; two basketball courts; three double handball courts; and the rifle range. The rifle range will be a small caliber one sanctioned by National Rifleman's Association. THIS WILL be the only such recreational area in the city designed to meet the a letic needs of youngsters and teens. Local Jaycee president, Bob Howard, said the planned schedule for development over the five year period will be regulated to the "most immediate needs of the young people." This year's budget for work on the park hit $1,600, with the majority of proceeds coming from merchants and businesses in the form of advertising. MEMBERS have been selling billboard type ads to local merchants, and these are being erected around the backfield of the Little League field.

The freshly painted signs will be ready Friday night when a "capacity crowd" is expected to turn out for the big playoff the New Smyrna Beach Little League All-Stars against Green Cove Springs All-Stars. And though this softball field will be complete, it is only the beginning of a lot of hard work and time which will be donated by the Jaycees as their contribution to the youth of this city. Two DAYTONA BEACH A hometowner and' an Ail-American are two of the stars of the Daytona Beach Thunderbirds' backfield. Herschel Hogan of Daytona Beach is well known as one of Mainland High School's all-time great athletes. During his high school career in sports Hogan won no less than 16 letters in basketball, baseball, track and football.

IT WAS Hogan's gridiron prowess that got him an athletic scholarship to Stetson University. At the De-Land school he played on the last team it fielded before dropping football from its program. At Stetson, Hogan followed in the footsteps of his older brother, Fred, who is now head coach at Daytona's Seabreeze High. The Sanford born Hogan has played in pro and semi pro ball for the past four years. He is the only member of the 1964 erbird team that played on the original Daytona Beach a team in 1961.

In 1962 he joined the T-Birds and has played with them since. His abilities as a runner, passer and receiver have attracted offers from the New York Titans of the AFL and from the Canadian pro team in Hamilton, but Hogan says that it would be too much of a gamble to quit his job and move his wife and two boys up there for a couple of seasons. ANOTHER back on the T-Birds roster has been on the rosters of three professional teams but prefers living in Florida. He is Don Goodman of Miami, who recently moved to Daytona Beach with his wife Bar-. bara, and their two children.

Goodman was the All SEC and Honorable Men-t i Ail-American fullback from the University of Florida. After leaving Gainesville he went to the Dallas Texans for a year in the AFL, then to Toronto for ka season of Canadian ball. For the past two years he has been the nemesis of the T-Birds while he was the powerful fullback of the Jacksonville team. Goodman was one of the deciding factors which won the Southern Play miles when it was hit by1 another car and demolished. Their two weeks vacation turned into six weeks as they had to wait; for a new car.

No one was hurt. MR. AND Mrs. William Calhoun of Orange City Estates entertained Monday night. Among (hose present were Mr.

REISER VIES IN GRUDGE DRAG RACE SAN FORD Beecher Wyatt, of this city, owner and driver of the "Rebel" and the "Rebel Too," (two 1964 Plymouths), has a grudge-race with Bob Tucker of Orlando this Saturday night at the "Twin City Dragway," (formerly the Golden Triangle).
