OPEN SUNDAY PLAYGROUNDS
imED BY SOCIAL WORKERS
Closed Recreation Centres Drive Peo
ple to Mischief, They Say
The opening of the Fourth National
Flower Show on Sunday has aroused com
ment In many sections of the city. No
locality, however. Is more Interested than
tho congested district of tho 3d Ward,
South Philadelphia, where Sunday, In
stead of being a day of peace and rest,
Is one of turmoil, according to settle
ment workers, who dcclnro that "mischief
finds work for Idle hands to do," nnd ad
vocnte the opening of the public play
grounds except during hours of church
services.
"Philadelphia should havo supervised
Sunday recreation," said John Grolle,
director of the Settlement Sluslc School,
427 Christian street, when telling of tho
difficulties of managing tho peoplo of con
gested districts on Sundays. "The public
playgrounds should bo opened on Sundays.
I do not mean that this should Interfere
vlth the church hours. But I do mean
that somo place should bo open for the
peoplo who havo nowhere to go Sunday
afternoon for rccrcntlon except the streets.
The largo parks nro too fnr away. What
the peoplo want Is a place near their
own homes such a placo as Is provided
by tho playgrounds, which aro closed on
Sundas. There should bo supervised
recreation In these places on Sundays.
Tho Sunday afternoon problem Is one o'f
tho greatest the settlement worker has tn
meet. The settlements, many of whlcji
aro open, cannot possibly tnke care of
nil the people. Tho only way Is to open
the playgrounds nnd have supervised play
there."
