We, of the Kinsmen Club will support the Rotarians in their promotion of a sports complex and help them in any way we can as we feel this.is one way that youngsters can use their energies in a constructive man- ner’. A local Doctor. is of the opin- _ ion’... this area is a boring place for. young people, there’s. very little for. them‘to do, and adult taxpayers who are mostly retired seem to crush any new © ideas or ¢hange”’. The recent furor caused over an applicant's ‘‘Coffee~A-Go-Go would scem to bear this out. The. eounei’s common “sense owas” questioned and it was obvious the name alone struck terror. into’ the hearis of nearby residents. The .words *‘A-Go-Go’" stuck in their minds more than the word “Coffee'.; Anyone who can get **sauced"? to leave home to find their kicks. The Recreation Commission Seeretary.. Mrs. Dorothy Tho- mas recently wrote a letter to the paper claiming unfair dis- bursement. of funds by the coun- cil in regard to the Kinsmen Club, the Recreation Commission and Sanseha,. Mrs, Thomas has been active-in community life for many years and this writer is not with- out a certain amount of admira-.. tion for her, On the other hand, the facts speak for themselves. - The Recreation Commission, in some people’s minds should be donated‘ to planning recrea- tion. and car rying it out, not Just. an august bedy of indivi- duals which disburses funds to” already formed groups or clubs. The Commission is ably repre- sented, and*inteyrated ventures should be carried out with all age groups in mind and. on a yvear round basis.

Not everyone is sports minded and facilities for anything else are just not available at the pre- sent time.’ For three weeks from July 14 to. August .4, a summer play- ground will be operated out of Sanscha for. children 6 to 12 years. Mrs. Sealey devotes her and feels ‘it’s the basis of teach~ ing youngsters how to use their leisure time to best advantage. By the end of the century there will be. only 2% labor force and the adults of tomorrow will need to be ‘equipped to handle the idle hours asaresult,’’ she explained. It would: be unfair to criticize” the Recreation Commission, as. funds are limited, wherein then lies. the answer? | “Silver Threads Thursday, June 26 and Fri- _ day, June 27 thre will be Bridge and Jacko, as usual, On Mon- day, June 30.2 musical afternoon at 2 p.m. and the Centre will be closed on July Ist. -Wed- nesday, July 2 there will. be | shuffleboard, table bowling and a social, commencing at 2 p.m. During July ‘and August. the Centre will-be open* Mondays, — Wednesdays and Fridays, 1 to 5 pom.
