Demand Grows Fast For Recreation Land
New York reports that recreation land is disappearing as private ownership rises. Terence Ragan of Recreation Land Investments warns that by 1974 families may need three year advance reservations for national parks and by the late 1970s visits to government areas could be rationed. He cites rising second homes and expanding leisure time as driving forces behind the shift from public to private recreation properties.

Home Noises Rise in North American Homes
TORONTO a UP report says home noise levels have more than doubled in 40 years. Plant Administration and Engineering notes noise rose from 20 decibels in the 1920s to 45 decibels in single family homes and 50 decibels in multifamily dwellings. Safety experts warn this fatigue may hinder work and raise hearing loss risk as off the job noise remains intermittent and disruptive.
