Number 44 Brigham City, Utah, Wednesday Morning, October NlW 29, 1958 20 PAGES City Given National Guard Approval To Use Armory as Recreation Center The Utah adjutant generals office has given permission for Brigham City t$ use the National Guard armory on Forest street as a community recreation .center, it was announced this week. Negotiations to secure the building facilities had been undertaken nearly a year ago. The official approval was received in a letter signed by Maurice L. Watts, assistant to Gen. Maxwell E. Rich. The local guard unit holds regular drills each Monday. Councilman Don Chase said the building would be available at all other times except when special drills are conducted. Chase said the next step would be to appoint a citizen committee, with approval of the city council, whose responsibility it would be to set the center in operation, designating hours and other policies. Primary purpose of the recreation center is to provide activity for the communitys younger people. It will supplant the Teen Canteen on Forest street and all games and equipment will be moved to the armory when the new center begins to function.
