Parks Head Outlines Memorial Field Rehab Plan
Saco Recreation Director Robert Moody outlined a plan to reclaim Memorial Field behind Burns Junior High. The city seeks $35,000 in federal and state funds with a $20,000 local match to install drainage, reseed, returf the infield, and add a baseball diamond softball field and all purpose area. Moody envisions resurfaced tennis courts backstops bleachers and lighted horseshoe pits if money allows. Memorial Field is currently underwater and unusable most of the time, threatening a 1974 outdoor program without the project.

Nixon Seeks Hanoi Stakes in Peace and Dollar Trouble
President Nixon urged postwar aid to Hanoi as essential to give North Vietnam a stake in peace while facing strong opposition. He announced a April 23 meeting with South Vietnam’s Nguyen Van Thieu at the Western White House and downplayed a new dollar devaluation amid market pressure. He defended aid costs as necessary for peace and urged Congress to back his approach despite doubts. The report also notes political reactions to Vietnam war efforts and related currency strains.
