, No estimates of co6t for these sup

vided for in the ultimate plan. Money
for their construction is lacking at
this time.
At the same time. Finnan announced
park officials have provided for a
hand ball court in the pool now being
built, when the swimming season has
passed. This will be done by erect
ing a backstop and placing a wooden
floor on the bottom of the dry pool, j
Secretary Irkes has relaxed Public
Works Administration rules, at the 1
request, of the contractor on the pool,
and will now permit a 40-hour work j
week there, as has been done in the
ease of the new pool at Anacoetia !

nan. made the request for * longer
trork week. on the plea that there li a
•hortage of skilled labor.
