SECURE PLAYGROUND AT ELM PLACE SCHOOL Purchase Morgan rty On "hirh Sheridan Road n Near School Here is a dream come true. * For years the parents, teacher: and children of Elm Place school have dreamed of the day when the playground space would be larger. They have hoped that the time would come when children would not have to cross town to Sunset Park or the High School Athletic Field for afterâ€"school sports. Both the Park Board and~ the â€"High School have been most generous in allowing Elm Place school to use their facilities. But the distance to these places has hampered the school‘s physical education program considerably. i ; With 550 children in the Eim Place school the present space is quite inadequate. The older chilâ€" dren and the younger ones are conâ€" stantly in each other‘s way. It has not been considered wise to remove all trees and shrubbery in order to provide the little more space that could be provided in that way. Moreâ€" over, there is no adjoining or nearby park property as is the case with other schools in the city.. Now, at last, this dream of more playground spaceâ€" will beâ€"realized. The Board of Education of School District 107 has authorized the purâ€" chase of the Morgan property, which is directly across Sheridan road from ‘the Elm Place school, ° This property includes lots 7, 8, 9, facâ€" ing Sheridan road, and lots 17, 18, 19 facing St. Johns avenue, Block 16. â€"The vacated alloy is also inâ€" cluded in this plot. The property is some 300 feet wide and 600 feet deep, comprising about four acres of land. The Board of Education of School District 107 is purchasing this property for $18,000 for the entire plot, The â€"land is being bought diâ€" rectly without commissions being paid to anyone. ~People who know anything about realâ€"estate values in ~â€"(Continued on Page 20) WANTED â€" Exercise equipment for the new athletic departâ€" ment at the Community Center, All sorts of individual equipâ€" ment are needed for the exercise room in the new unit.
