ASKS MEN'S PLAYGROUNDS
Educator Says Adults Encroach
Upon Children's Recreation Centers
A plea for plaj grounds for big boys
nnd young men Is, made by Francis M.
Baker, president, of the Men Grade
Teachers Association of the Elementary
Schools, and a principal of city play
grounds for ten years.
According to Mr. Baker, with shorter
hours of labor, the workfngmnn, for
the first time in centuries, has ade
quate time for recreation and nowhere
to go. Therefore, he asserts, the oung
men encroach upon the playgrounds of
the children with bad results for both.
Krnest it. Tustin, director of public
welfare, said he would not reply to Sir.
Baker unless the latter presented spe
cific instances instead of generalities.
He said he knew of no such condition as
wns said to exist.
