MORE ABOUT
(Continued from page one)
Meyer advocated the establishment
of a strong advisory committee rep
resenting a cross-section of the
population.
Through his discussion, he re
peatedly advised1 slow, careful pro
cedure. In the discussion of the prob
lems of a program, it was indicat
ed that such a recreation commis
sion could function for both
Waynesville and Hazelwood.
Dr. Meyer said the long-range
goal should be considered in terms
of balanced program not only in
terriis of games for tile youth, but
in terms of recreation for the pre
school children, and particularly
for adults.
A balanced program, he explain
ed, would include music, dramatics,
arts and handicraft, camping, and
other activities, as well as games.
He told the directors to consider
the tourist opportunities as well as
the cdmrriurilty recreation phase.
He pointed out that 60,000,000 peo
ple live within two days' travel of
the Great Smoky Mountains Na
tional Park. '
He called recreation an essen
tial, particularly to the busiest men
and women, but added it should
be considered in proper perspec
tive. Dr. Meyer said:
"There are wonderful potential
ities for a recreation program in
this area."
And again he advised:
"Go slowly."
In talking about recreation pro
grams throughout the state, Dr.
Meyer said nine swimming pools
and $4,000,000 worth of community
recreation centers are being built.
Referring ,to public enthusiasm,
he added that of 15 bond elections
held so far, supporters of commun
ity recreation programs have lost
only one.
Discussing the facilities being
set up, he said adjoining Canton's
new $75,000 swimming pool will
be a concrete multiple-use area on
which 21 different games can be
played simultaneously
Going back to Waynesville's war
lime plan for a "living war memor
ial," he called the program a "good
one".
It provided for construction of a
community recreation center, a
unit at a time over a period of
five to ten years.
The community council was a
body of private organizations.
Dr. Meyer declared that a com
munity recreation program could
not be run successfully by a civic
club or voluntary groups. It would
take a town recreation commis
sion, he said.
If such a program were organ
ized in this area, he added, the
facilities of the State Recreation
Commission would be available, lie
said his group would send a field
representative here to study the
problems and help with the organ
ization. He suggested, also, that the civic
clubs, church groups, and others
Ret together and request the town
government to establish a recre
ation commission.
The directors adjourned after It
was indicated that the matter
would be studied further.

Rogers' Trout
(Continued from page one)
He used a black minnow lure on
a five-foot bait casting rod, and
hooked the fish about 20 feet from
shore.
Mr. Rogers, incidentally, caught
his prize before the opening of the
trout season for mountain streams.
But, the Commission says, the
catch is legal "under a regulation
which permits trout to be taken
from impounded waters through
out the year as in the case of warm
water species."
