Confusion existed as to who actually was hi command of forces patrolling an area where rioting erupted Saturday night.

Recreation Commis.sion members last night accepted a proposal from the Public Housing Authority which would aid the development of park facilities In the areas of the proposed housing developments in South Greenville and north of the Tar River In the Edgemont section.

Col. A E Dubber, director of the Redevelopment Commission end public Housing Authority, told the commission the Authority has provisions for funds for community facilities at both Bites and we dont see competing with the present building at the South Orcenville site.

We can pool resourceseither flv the money to the city cr work out a cooperative deal, whereby the Recreation body will get the facilitle.s it needs.

Acros* the river, we could construct a building In such a way 80 the city can add on later or implement some city plan now.

Dubber continued This seem.s to be the best thing tell us what you want to do and we'll do It*^

JU iplaiBed tho purpoM af

the proposal Is to see that the people in these houses have the same recreational facilities as everyone else, no more or no less.

FoDowing Dubbers presenta tlon and a discussion of the offer. the commission approved the idea and Indicated a aub-com mittee would be appointed at a later time to work with the Housing Authority in including the facilities in the recreational Master Plan the Commission established last year.

In his monthly report to the commission Director Gordon Goodman revealed to the group that since the April meeting of the commission, attendance at the Junior High Teenage Club has dropped drastically.

It was at that meeting, Goodman reminded, that representatives from the Parents League presented a suggestion that the Junior High club group be eliminated from the weekly com-uiisslun program.

The suggestion was contained In a list of suggestions the representatives said were from teenagers themselves, collected by league members. They emphasized at that time the list of suggestions wera not to be taken as specllle raoonunen-

da tions but just suggestions. They had been uncovered by the league while studying behavior patterns of Greenville youth.

The recreation body agreed to accept the Parents League report for study. No action was or has been taken toward doing away with the Junior High program. Goodman emphasized.

The League report suggested carefully planned activities and special occasion parties at the recreation center might better meet the needs of this group. The report said students at the senior high level have strongly concurred with the recommendations aiKl feel their club vruld be much .stronger and more popular if they had not already had two years of the same activity.

Goodman said since the April 8 meeting, attendance has dwindled. Ho also noted the club was clo.sed for two nights bocau.se parents wlio were scheduled to chaperone did not attend.

The Junior High club has use of the Elm Street building on Friday nights, with dancing and

Chicago Police And Firemen Stoned By Mob

CHICAGO (AP) - Hundreds of Negroes, reportedly angered by wounding of a Negro youth during an attempted burglary, stoned police and firemen in what police termed an anti-police demonstration Monday night.

Twenty-five squad cars of police and several police dogs quelled the rock-throwing, jeering crowd in a predominantly Negro section of the West Side after the crowd had milled around for two hours.

Merlin Nygren, deputy police superintendent, said the disturbance began after a Negro youth was wounded during an attempted burglary of a warehouse. The youth, identified as Conley Dillon. 14, was in serious condition in a hospital with a bullet wound In his lung.

One polceman suffered minor ^ Injuries when stnick by a rock. Windows of .several police cars were shattei-ed.

2. Direct operation by the Maritime Administration with civilian personnel under civil service.

3. Operation by the Navy, If that is feasible.

Hodges stressed that he hoped the Savannah could be operated with civilian, rather than military personnel.

He was highly critical of the engineers whose labor dispute has kept the Savannah docked at Galveston, Tex., since February.

The engineers were paid off Monday by States Marine Lines, which has the contract to operate the Savannah.

Hodges said the crux of the dispute was the engineers objection to an wage award to deck officers and their insistence that it be set aside as a condition to their working. -

Patrol Major C. R. Williams said the patrol felt it necessary to be prepared for any eventuality. Such rumors aie always circulating, he said, But we gave more credence to these in view of the racial situation.
