problems.that effect the city schools. He stated that he felt

fence might alleviate the problem. He requested a copy of the
letter that was sent to the School Board by Mayor Tury.

and if the letter was public information he would see to it that
he would receive a copy.

at the last meeting there was additional patrol made at that parti-
cular"location, and it was 'discovered that the problem does not seem
to start at the park and over-flow to the school, but the problem
seems to begin at the school property and over-flows to the Park.

to work on week-ends to do nothing but clean up the parks so that
they may be utilized by the residents that use parks in the fashion
that they are designed to be used.

and the hand ball courts should be expanded at the parks.
