Superintendent of Schools John W.
Dodd referred to the elementary
schools, which have their teams, as
a "farm system," to develop play-ers
and predicted the Dads' club
was going to make sports worth-while
in Freeport. He said 'the
organization was out for 1,000 mem-bers
and that there wouldn't Be an-other
place which had' a similar
organization. Leo F. GIblyn, presi-dent
of the Board of Education
spoke of the part played by sports
in the school system, saying they
were as essential as English and
mathematics. ' ,
Russell Terry-, the "JV" coach
told of .the thrill -of handling boys

coached the varsity, dwelt on the
bright prospects for a successful

In reply to questions as to what

Waterfront Conditions
Called Pathetic by'
Robert C Doxsee
Actiug Mayor Robert L. Doxsee
and Tiuistees Joseph H. Gallo and

vit'ations to attend the monthly
meeting or the -Southwest - Civic
Association JVIonday night in Ex-empt
Firemen's Hall. Mayor Cyril
C. Ryan and Trustee Horace F.
Carpenter t sent regrets over being
unable to attend. President1 Wil-liam-
J. Albert Introduced Mr. Gallo
and Mr. Smith and called on Mr.
Doxsee, who had been in^ofllce just
a week, to speak.
He said that to familiarize him-self
with conditions in the village
he had gone over the community
- with Village Engineer Herbert M.
Wood, Superintendent of Public
Works Michael J. Coffey and Harry
' J. Chuisano, superintendent of
hlgTnvays.
Mr. Doxsee said conditions at
the w8ter_ front were pathetic, be-
£»cause they were so different'from
what thy might'have -been had'the
original developers realized the
potentialities of the area and had it
properly graded. This has created
a blight which he maintained will
take a long while to correct. If
early developers had had the fore-sight,
he added, waterfront proper-ties
now would be worth millions
and the section would have been a
great asset to Freeport. , ,,,_..,
