Nursery Parley Considers Law Over Public Park Use
Delegates to the California Council of Cooperative Nursery Schools discussed appealing to county supervisors about a law interpretation. It denies exclusive use of park property by any one group for extended periods, causing one Los Angeles nursery to leave its quarters. The council, led by cochair Myron Blumbert, praised good ties with Long Beach Recreation and Park Department and adjourned after a two day session. The fall convention will be held jointly in Milpitas and San Francisco.
