This national recognition was given to the Lake Region Young Men's Christian association for its health and physical education program, James C. Zoellick, executive director, announced. A Certificate of Merit was awarded in recognition of the high quality of service per­ formed in one of the major current thrusts of the YMCA's across the United States: Reducing health problems by strengthening physical and mental health. Presented by the National Council of YMCA's through its National and Area Physical Education committee, the certificate allows the Lake Region YMCA to enter its registered amateur athletes in official area and national sports competition with other YMCA's around the country. It can also participate in the national physical education programs. The certification is given every three years to those associations that meet the standards set by the YMCA National Health and Physical Education committee, and who request it. To meet these standards, the Lake Region YMCA must conduct a balanced and in­ teresting program of physical education; have a physical education committee and volunteer leaders to give guidance in policy and program development, and use the national YMCA aquatic program in its building, the community and its camp. It must also maintain q u a l i f i e d p r o f e s s i o n a l leadership to guide its program, operate in ac­ cordance with an adequate up- to-date written policy and be a member in good standing of the National Council of YMCA's. "Perhaps most important of all," Vale Adams said, "A local association receiving the certificate must continually evaluate, revise, amplify and modernize its physical education program to meet changing community needs.

Dan Walker told him he will, definitely approve in the im­ mediate future a state-federal pilot program to improve community facilities and living conditions in small towns in Illinois with populations under 3,500.
