City eyes athletic field expansion and civic plans
Twenty years ago the Board of Education approved purchasing the Pair Grounds for an athletic field and potential school expansion. A private offer by James Ft Wright spurred the deal while a court freed two alleged bootleggers for lack of sufficient evidence. The City Commission moved to reserve northside fire stations and street department storage. The council aims to overhaul street lighting when the current contract ends on June 90. Dr Gillette bought Franklin Street property and Jayis tract for two family homes. Community Service and Hugh School Athletic Association discuss a large outdoor meet at Washington Street ball grounds on May 11, with city youths to join in a physical culture exhibition.
