Show Cooperative Project At Softball Park Approved by Council The City Council in meeting Thursday night approved a project pro-ject for the improvement of the city softball diamond, with local civic and recreation groups offering of-fering to cooperate In financing the program. As a result of large numbers of people driving to the park each night to watch the games from their Cars parked around the outfield, a rather serious dust problem has been created. The project approved Thursday is designed to overcome this dust problem through oil coating the driveway around the field. The parking plan In which the parking of cars around the field is permitted has created an ideal (situation for family groups who wish to attend the games. However, How-ever, the heavy travel on the drive way as a result of this has i created a situation where clouds of dust are raised each time a car is driven in or out of the area. The oil surfacing to be done by the city with interested groups helping with the finance should overcome this problem entirely, city &nd softball association asso-ciation officials feel. |
