Marine Corps. Broken Bottles Disturb Board Prohibition Rule For Norwalk Park? NORWALK An ordinance barring the consumption of beer and other alcoholic beverages at Memorial Lake Park may be sought of the city council by the Norwalk park and recreation board, Such a request may be in the realm of possibility following persistent reports that park users and particularly fishermen leave the lake shore and nearby areas littered with empty beer cans and broken liquor bottles. A trip to the lake and a h'ke around its shores, and even along the stone embankments, indicate a wanton discard of empty beer containers. Some areas are more heavily littered than others and there is evidence that many of the empty cans are hurled into the lake itself. Board President Paul Tucker has expressed concern about the problem.

He realizes that the one park attendant has a difficult time in policing the entire area. Tucker expressed the hope that the litter habits of both fishermen and picnickers can be curtailed SANDUSKY REGISTER tea HeurJ Hindley Named To Health Post In Huron County the proposed new school ready for presentation at a special Drahos of Huron Streel.

"Even without the extra attendants," Tucker declared, would think that with all the anti- litter drives people would have sufficient self-respect and carry their trash away with them." Although there are ample trash receptacles in the area of the new shelter house, Tucker said he realized that fhey are few and far between in the southern and eastern areas of the lake. "We plan to acquire more empty drums and have them properly marked and placed in various parts of the park both near the lake and the adjacent wooded areas which are picnics," he said.
