contemplating the establishment of
what will probably be one of the lar-
gest playgrounds in the state. The
recreation grounds will be on the tract
adjoining St. Mary's new Catholic
cemetery. and will cover twenty-live
acre', possibly more. Father Winters
say. concerning the venture:

"We plan to begin at once to pre-
pare the grounds with the plans now'
'in view. We will'have tennis courts,
baseball and football fields, and golf
courses'of smalldimensidns. Situated
as the grounds are. they will be. con-
venient for a large number. The (loan
clue of the project will be dimcult,
but we will consider that later. We
will undoubtedly open it to all of the
people of New Bcitain."
