the newly- paved market square Proceeds front both events are for the swimming pool fund Enthusiasm for the swimming pool has increased since the com mittee of Charles VanZant Al- George report and Ken undertook the floodlight campaign in the fair grounds That committee published an artists sketch of the possibilities to be found at the fair grounds and included was a swimming pool The fact that after earlier unsuccessful tries a new group was succeeding in its efforts to revitalize the fairground a community recreation centre has opened the eyes of the public to what can be accomplished if the workers are willing And while the swimming pool neednt nee- go into the fair ground the fact remains that the vision of an all round recreation park has encouraged townwide interest The Lions had earlier been ap proached by interested individ uals to undertake the swimming pool campaign and in his open ing address Mr Walker lodged that provision of a swim ming pool for Newmarket was a project close to his heart and that he had looked forward to the presidency of the club with that one project in mind We hope that in preparing the facts upon which to base a swimming pool campaign the public will assist us with any suggestions and constructive criticisms they may think help- ful Such suggestions should be made to Mr Boyd as chairman of the fact- inch said Mr Walker He said that when the I
