at the bi-monthly meeting or tho
Froeport Community Council Mon-day
niKln in the Municipal •Build-ing.
The gift was presented by Mr.
Waffstaff's associates on the Board
or Trustees of the Frocport Police
Hoys Clubs.
As a suplerrugo, Mr. Wagsiaff
was inveigeled i n f o attending the
meeting to give a talk on the work
or the Police Boys Clubs. He told
of its organization, its growth and
appealed lor additional lacilitie.s to
enable the expansion of the work.
Mr. Wagstaff told of the area
2,000 by 400 feet south of the sta-dium
and a plot S'OO by 400 feet in
the playground adjacent to .Buffalo
ave. granted to the village by the
State, each of which he said could
easily be made usable by applying
top soil. He also asked* for more
gymnasiums in which to enable the
boys to play basketball.
As he finished, Warren F. Mil-lard,
chairman of the trustees
escorted him to where Mayor Rvaii
was sitting.
The .Mayor proclaimed Mr. Wag-staff
one of the greatest workers
for the advancement of youth, not
only on Long Island in Nassau
County but in the entire I'nited
States, and expressed regret Free-port
was going to lose him.
"This Village owes -Gene Wag-staff
a great debt of gratitude on
behalf of every youth he h;ts
aided," Mayor Ryan said.
The Wagstaff s have lived In
Freeport 18 years, for the last
seven and a half years of which
they engaged in the stationery busi-ness,
first on West Merrick rd. and
later on South Grove st. During
these years their place of business
was the rendezvous for the youth of
the community. Shortly before
they sold out they installed a tele-vision
set to enable the boys and
girls to enjoy themselves under
wholesome surroundings.
As an appreciation of the treat-ment
they have received, the
"gang" goM-egeth*i!'-iind purchased i
traveling bags for both Mr. and
