Community Recreation for Troops in Camp Planned
A national plan funds and coordinates camp recreation for soldiers and sailors in training. The $3.75 million fund, led by Victor R. Manning and a national committee, will partner with the Playground and Recreation Association of America to provide diverse activities in and near camps. The program aims to reestablish social bonds for servicemen and foster postwar citizenship through community involvement and interfaith, club, and civic support.
