During the afternoon session it
was learned that a bill will be
sponsored in the General Assembly
calling for the creation of Recrea
Uon Commissions in the three coun
- -
.iand on a year-round basis. George
Sargisson, director of Recreational
Promotion and Service, Inc., said
there ia a great need for this type
program, especially in the new
residential developments ip New
Castle County. Ground is available
for the establishment of centers,
parks, etc., but no one with lead
ership or authority is empowered
to begin a program, he declared,
man G. Wilder, executive director
of the State Game and Fish Com
mission, who pointed out that Del
aware is the ninth most densely
ties. These Commissions would be
empowered to formulate recreation
programs for both young and old
Dr. George R. Miller, Jr., out
lined the development of the
schools in the state and the need
for all types of development of
programs to better educate the boys
and girls in safety practices, health
. „ 4 . ,
building, etc. He said that school
1 systems are advancing, but the
trend must continue because of the
ever-increasing population.
' Governor J. Caleb Boggs pledg
ed the cooperation of his adminis
tration in the protection and con
servation of natural resources at
the noon luncheon which was joint
ly sponsored with the Wilmington
Kiwanis Club with nearly 300 in
attendance.
Walter Pitkin, director of State
Development in Pennsylvania and
chairman of Incodel, outlined the
W ork of the latter organization in
the development of a better water

Delaware. New Jersey and

New York, may retard the progress

The Delaware Bankers Associa

ticipated and it seemed to be a fore
conclusion that the confer
gone
ence would most likely become an
annual event.
