ational tacltltles ol Raleigh. Miss
Abernathy emphasized the tact that
the playgrounda of the city are in-
nderiuntc tor the needa ot the peo
ple. In many sections ot Raleigh,
neighborhood recreation ccnters are
needed to prevent the chlldran from
playing In the streets.
There Is, nevertheless, a wide va
riety of games and siKirta available
in those playgrounds provided by
ti\e city at the present time. Aside
from the uaual tennis, badminton,
iiaseball and volley ball, there have
been added leas strenuous games
such as checkers. The children
themselves make much of their
Gdiilpment. This sonac ot part own
ership Incrcaaea their Intei'cst and
(levelups In them an attitude ot re
sponsibility not only tor these par
tlcular tocllitlos, but towards all the
things which they may uae else
where.
