Clarke County Women Voters Hear
Shields On ‘Recreation In Athens’
*“Recreation is something one
does of his own choosing for the
fun and enjoyment it affords him
during his leisure time,” Wayne
R. Shields, superintendent of Ath
ens Recreation and Parks Depart
ment, told Clarke Ceunty Women
voters at their regular monthly
luncheon meeting in Holman Ho
tel yesterday at one o’clock.
Speaking on “Recreation in Ath
ens Today,” Mr. Shields referred
to the many popular misconcep~
tions of what a city recreation
program should be, among them
being: “a recreation program
means playgrounds”; “a program
of activities for the amusement of
children”; and “an activities pro
gram designed to benefit under
privileged children.”
Discounting these misconcep
tions, Mr. Shields stated that rec
reation knows no age or economic
levels and a well-balanced and
well-designed municipal recrea
tion program includes a great va
riety of activities in the schedule,
affording anyone an opportunity |
to participate in any one or all of
”Wtivitics as he sees fit, ’
“Sports play a very small part |
in the program as a whole,” Mr. |
Shields stated, “and the slow |
softball league sponsored by the |
recreation department here is de- l
signed to eliminate ‘high-power
ed’ athletic youths, who have am
ple opportunity- to play in their
own class, and to provide a source
of diversion for others who are
perhaps less agile but more inter
ested in the game for the fun it
provides them.”
Trailside Museum
The speaker said that during
the winter months the Recreation
Dep;tment built about a half
dozen attractive animal inclosures
at Memorial Park, giving particu
lar attention to construction
which would blend with the land-~
scape and in arranging them in
formally throughout the woods.
In early spring, effective pub
licity filled these pens with coon,
foxes, squirrels, rabbits, and a
“The people of Athens and
Clarke county are taking their
"I‘rafiaide Museunry and Memorial
Park very seriously,” Mr. Shields
declared, “and public opinion has
causfd the department to more
than!double the size of the origi
nal buseum plan. An average of
750 itors come to the park
eV Sunday afternoon, and it
has n estimated that approxi
ma 2,000 persons per week
visit |and make use of the park
and Its many picnic and other fa
cilities.”
M;. Shields also told of other
tion department facilities,
buildings, playgrounds and activ
ities, among them being the Lyn
don House, “where playground ac
tivities, tournaments of all kinds,
free ‘weekly movies, picnics, soft
ball, basketball, roller skating,

pools—Legion Pgol (leased for six
years by the department) which
is operated from 10 a. m, through
{9 p. m. every day for white citi
'zens and affords all-summer
classes and swimming instructions
for all Athens children for $1 per
person; and the Riverside Park
and Pool for colored citizens which
operates on schedule similar to
that of the Legion Pool. He .also
spoke of the Dudley Field in East
Athens, This long ~ established
playground and ball park is now
lbeing expanded into a park and
covers six acres, he said.
’ Day Camp
A day camp for all Athens youth
is being operated at Memorial
Park this summer, according to
Mr. Shields, with 40 children per
week attending. The Teen-Age{
Club at Menrorial Park is consid
ered by many to be one of the
finest of its kind in the Southeast,
and it offers many indoor activi
ties designed for the entertain
ment of everyone, young and old.
Among these activities are art
classes, and photography instruc
tion, with all equipment other
than film supplied.
“The increase in budget this
year by the Mayor and Council
has made a great difference in
this department,” Mr. Shields stat
ed, “and we are now able to offer
many more activities and to think
in terms of adding even more in
the future.”
Also, present at the meeting
were Harry Hodgson and W. H.
Benson, members of the original
recreation and parks board here,
both of whom spoke briefly on the
work of Mr. Shields and his de
partment staff. Mrs. Mildred
Rhodes, a member of the present
board, also commended the rec
reation superintendent and his
staff.
Mr. Hodgson paid tribute to
Mrs. C. A, VerNooy, “who was
undoubtedly the inspiration of the
entire recreation and parks pro
gram which is so much in evidence
in Athens at the present time.”
Mrs. Doyle Faulkner presided in
the absence of Mrs. Annie E. Grif
feth, president of the group.
A business session followed Mr.
Shields’ address.

ly 20 miles north of the center,
and south of the line only in the
west. Kaesong, where meetings
are being held 12 miles beyond
the U. N. lines, is three miles
south of the parallel.
The Red demands would ask the ‘
U. N. forces to do most of the
withdrawing. Naval blockades,
which the Red demand would halt,
are maintained only by the Allies.
And almost all air reconnaissance
is done by U. N. planes.
Policing Omission
Most important omission from
the United Nations view was the
lack of any provision for policing
North Korea, and a similar plan
for South Korea. Allied spokes
men have said such policing is
necessary to prevent any buildup
of forces during final negotiations
or after a settlement.
The United Nations want the
right of aerial surveillance over
Communist Korea and are willing
to grant the same privilege to the
Reds in the south.
Comumnists never have permit
ted any neutral or other observers
north of the 38th parallel since it
was first created as a dividing line
for the country after the Second
World War. Nor have Communist
countries elsewhere agreed to for
eign observers in their territory.
These points may be under dis
cussion.
But the settlement of them, and
any other stumbling blocks to
peace, will not come immediately.
The negotiations are a slow and
tortuous process. The talks are
still in the formal stage, The
give-and-take has yet to begin.
During the past 10 years, the
number of horses and mules in
this country has decreased by 52
per cent.
Ancient Paris, often the target
of invasion, was captured and
plundered several times by the
Vikings more than 1,000 years ago.

TASK FORCE 77 REFUELS ON THE HIGH SEAS—Somewhere in the Sea of Japan off Korea,
the carrier U. S. S. Princeton fills her tanks from a Navy tanker, as a destroyer, her tanks already
filled, shoves off for the operational area. Refueling at sea is a standard practice that keeps the big
ships of Fast Carrier Task Force 77 on combat stations for long periods of time without the need to
return to port.
Was It Worthwhile Is Soldier’s
Question, According To Hal Boyle
By HAL BOYLE
NEW YORK —(AP)— A friend
came to me and said:
“What interests me most about
the proposed cease-fire in Korea
isn’t what the military leaders or
world diplomats think about it.
“What about the individual
American soldier? How does he
feel about it? If we settle for al
cease-fire, will he think the war in
Korea was worthwhile? Or will
he think he fought for nothing?”
It’s a good point. No settlement
will. basically satisfy American
troops if it belittles the blood they
shed or the sacrifices they made in
the bitter accordian warfare in
Korea. They weren’t defeated on
the hills, and certainly they
wouldn’t be happy to find they
had been negotiated into defeat in
the valleys.
The main thing a soldier hates,
short of defeat itself, is to halt
short of his goal. The taking of his
assigned objective is the heart of
his duty. And all successful war
fare is based on the assumption
that troops will take their objec
tives.
Objectives?
What were the objectives of the
American troops in Korea? Their
primary goal was to halt Com
munist aggression by counter
force. Later, a secondary goal
was added by the United Nations
—the creation of a free, indepen
dent, United Korea.
The first soldiers who landed on
the peninsula thought that stop
ping the little Red enemy would
be easy. Some thought that all
they had to do was stand on a hill
‘and show the American uniform,
and the North Koreans would im
mediately turn tail and retreat
back across the 38th parallel.
Instead, the American army got
its greatest shock since Pear| Har
bor. The Communists attacked
with ferocity and skill, The dazed,
outnumbered, over-confident U. S.
troops were almost pushed back
into the sea.
They recoiled, landed behind
the enemy and destroyed the ma
jor part of the North Korean Ar
my. Then veteran Chinese Com
munist troops came into the fray
by the hundreds of thousands. As
late as six months ago it again
looked like the United Nations
forces might face an Oriental Dun
_kerque.
But the wall of moving fire
power they threw up time and
again has thrown back the Chi
nese-Korean hordes and shattered
them.
Who Cried “Uncle”?
Who first cried “uncle”? The
Russians—for their dismayed Ko
rean and Red Chinese buddies.
The American soldier has re

As to the creation of an indepen
dent Korea, he probably would
just as soon let the diplomats fi
gure that one out.
Many an American soldier a
year ago questioned the wisdom
of the Korean struggle. The en
trance of the Chinese Reds did
more than anything else to make
him realize there was a real need
for Democratic nations to draw a
line beyond which aggrkssion
could not go.
Soldiers who fight long and well
must come to believe that what
they are fighting in is worthwhile.
Most Americans in Korea came to
feel that by their efforts there they
were helping keep a greater war
irom America.
And today I think most of them
will accept a fair and firm “cease
fire” as a victory, and regret only
the lost friends who cannot hear
their country’s verdict: “Well
done.”

‘P ises US Press
| WASHINGTON, July 11-—(AP)
{ Senator O’Conor (D.-Md.) paid
tribute to the American press
Monday in a Senate speech de
nouncing the trial and conviction
iin Czechoslovakia of AP Corre
spondent William N. Oatis.
O’Conor said the record of
American journalism “is replete
with the names of outstanding
newsmen who have been vigilant
—even though at times and under
certain circumstances it may have
entailed some personal dangers —
| to bring to the people of our coun
{ try unbiased and complete reports
i of happenings both within and
]without the United States.” He
| added:
l AP Praised
“Among the organizations which
| have contributed mightily to the
extension of news gathering and
reporting facilities of our people is
the Associated Press. From its
very inception this splendid news
agency has never deviated from its
primary objective of getting the
news and reporting it objectively
and dispassionately, but promptly
and completely.
“The same can be said for the
other news services and for the
great number of representatives of
individual newspapers and maga
zines throughout our country who
have been busy throughout Amer
ica and all over the world to bring
the people of this country the
fullest news and information of
developments elsewhere,
“Unfortunately, the same con
cept of a newsman’s function does
not exist in other parts of the
world, where individual freedoms
have been ruthlessly suppressed.
The most recent example of this is
presented in the case of William
N. Oatis, who has been subjected
by Czechoslovakian authorities to
one of the farcical ‘trials,’ convict
ed of alleged ‘admissions’ of spy
ing and sentenced to imprison
ment.”
