Chairman Denies Plantation Outing Story
Muscatine Youth Employment Service chief Jack Smith denies a Davenport Times-Democrat report that 25 local Y E S youths would dine Thursday at the Plantation in Moline. He calls the tale “hot true” only as a possibility among several ideas, with no definite plans. The program, funded by a $6,000 federal grant, runs half-day work with city parks and schools and half-day classes for about 25 youths aged 14 to 16. Mayor Burns says he has no plans to attend and would not approve such an expenditure.
