A MATT. PHONE 1025. HE movement to give El Paso children and grownups plenty of outdoor and indoor recreation this summer, free of charge, received new impetus Friday afternoon when the Playground association committee met in the chamber of commerce building and decided to ask the incoming city administration for more funds, as well as to begin the expenditure of the $7500 already in the treasury. The meeting was called to discuss a budget prepared by J. H.

Stine, supervisor of recreation, outlining the proposed work for the summer months and specifying the cost of building tennis courts, baseball grounds, basket ball courts and playgrounds necessary to the general aims of the organization. R. J. Tighe. superintendent of city schools, presided as chairman.

H. D. Slater, rabbi Martin Zielonka and Dr. J. A.

Rawlings were named as members of the committee which will take up with the new city council the matter of securing additional funds. Stine Estimate. Mr. Stine estimated that the amount of money to be expended for the work the summer will total about $3225. This would leave a fund of nearly $4500 to carry the work into the winter months.

The scheme embraces the establishment in various portions of the city baseball grounds for boys, wading pools for small children, a swimming pool for adults and children, tennis courts for children and grownups and basketball courts for children. Efforts will be made to secure large vacant pieces of land near the school buildings of El Paso and transform them into baseball grounds. At least six of these parks will be brought into use during the summer, it is believed. It is planned to make wading pools of the fountain in Houston square on Montana street and the fountain in the Mundy Heights park on Upson avenue. The Washington park natatorium will be put in shape for use if the plans of the committee materialize.

When school reopens next fall, supervisor Stine expects to have evolved a system whereby regular playground work will be carried on at each school every day during the term under the supervision of men trained for that purpose. Pupils in the elementary schools will be given at least an work a day on the recreation grounds. Male Employed. The time will be taken up ov the playing of athletic games and other forms of exercise. Male rs will be employed to instruct in these games and to give oral lessons regarding the laws of hygiene and the development of the body.

Mr. budget was adopted substantially as he presented it, only one minor change being made; this was his plan to make a swimming pool of the Houston square fountain. For every dollar donated by the city administration to the association fund, the board of school trustees has pledged to give half that amount, up to a total of $2500. If the new city council appropriates $5000 for the work, the school board will give $2500. The budget will be presented to the school board at its meeting Monday night, with the recommendation of playground committee.

Those in attendance Friday were: R. F. Burges, Mrs. Olga Kohlberg, Mrs. Chnrles B.

Stevens, rabbi Martin Zielonka. H. D. Slater, judge Adrian Pool, Claiborne Adams. Mrs.

In addition it was proposed to operate social centers in several school buildings for five months during the winter term. This made a proposed scheme of 11 projects to be operated 12 months, one project to be operated nine months, and 12 to be operated five months, a total of 34 projects. As the total appropriation asked for was $15,000 including overhead and $2055 for permanent equipment there was an average allotment of only $470.58 per project per year, a low estimate.

G-. Graham to Take Charge of Work Among the Fanners Here.

With tiie idea of further aiding the farmers here and those coming into the valley, the El Paso chamber of commerce has taken the final step to provide an agricultural expert for the valley. At a meeting of the land irrigation committee of the chamber of commerce Friday afternoon, chairman Geo. R. LeBaron presiding, A. G.

Graham was selected for the position oi instructing and cooperating with the farmers. He will go to wprk as i oon as the government approves his selection. He is a graduate of the New Mexico A. M. college and has had much personal experience in the trowing of silage crops and the making of ensilage.

He has also had experience in soil analysis and worked for some time at the New Mexico college after graduating there. It will be the duty of Mr. Graham to travel the valley in El Paso county five days out of each week, maining in his office the sixth day to meet and talk with the farmers who wish to see him there. He will advise with their as to the best crops for certain lands, will suggest the best treatment for crops already growing and will be at their service in any advisory way that will be beneficial to them. Monthly or at least each six weeks, J.

'juickiall. of Waco, who is district supervisor of this work for the United States government, will make visits to the valloj and assist Mr. Graham. Mr. Quick-all is one of the best men in the service of the government and is considered especially good iir.

an organizer. In addition to the services of Mr. Quicksall, who is to have supervisory charge of the valley work, and Mr. Graham, who is to be permanently on duty, the valley farmers will have at their call, 1- experts in various lines, in case anything arises which baffles the local demonstrator. These men are experts in horticulture, grains, irrigation, drainage, and any one of them can called at any time a problem arises that is too serious for the local man to handle.

Chairman l.eBaron and the members of his committee are glad the work is new so near beginning and believe that it is going to result in greater ess for the valley farmers in the. way of crops and profits rind that it is going to result in bringing new people to the valley. It will result in a large saving to these new comers, to have an expert to consult with, as ii will relieve them from many of the mictr.heo that others have made who have come here and engaged in iaiming without knowledge of what to do or what to plant.
