I Jaycees Having Pool Troubles Opening the swimming pool at the golf course this sum mer by the Franklin Jaycees seems "unlikely, to say the least", according to the club president, C. Banks Finger. "We had hopes of getting a filter system, but it looks al most impossible at this time," he commented this week. A filtering unit capable of turning over 600 gallons of water a minute is needed to do the job. Mr. Finger said the Jaycees located an army sur plus unit earlier in the year, but were outbid for it. The pool water supply is "adequate", he said, but health officials have said the pool can not open without a filtering system "So. we're now open for sug gestions . . . and assistance," Mr. Finger declared. The Jaycees have seven more years of a 10-year lea^e on the | pool. Three years ago, approxi- j mately $2,000 was spent provid- ! ing water for the pool.
