Committee Will Consider ]
Plans and Report at
June Session ·
Plans under discussion for IIOme
time for the beautifying of the !
Magnolia avenue fill and the ter- s
rac~s of the arroyo of the high o
school stadium by the planting of r
rose bushes or other suitable shrubs ~
wlll be considered by & epeclal I:
committe~ of the chamber of com- 1
merce city beautification commit- 1
tee named yesterday and report a
definite planting scheme to the 8
committee's .June session. s
Percy A. Powell, well°known here <l
as an authority on gardening. lJ
was named chairman of the special !l
committee by A. A. Plddington '
city beautification group head'. t
Other members of the sub-commit- Y
tee are Mrs. .J. L. George, .J. c. 0
Cooper and C. D. Norton. . g
Mr. Powell expressed the belief c
that ragged robin . roses will be b
best -suited for the llfdes of the tl
avenue and Cherokee roses 'tor the
hillside of the stadium • . il
Said Most Neglect.eel $
''The Magnolia fill la the most h
conspicuous spot in the city and d
has been the moat neglected," he lo
stated. '"The palms planted last 'ii
year have added greatly _.to the ;,
fil!'s appearance but . plants are tJ
needed between the trees.'?
J. C. Cooper. superintendent of 11
parks, said the chief · problem for c
the planting along the avenue fill 0
is the lack of water . pipes but esti- P
mated the cost would not. be great G
to install a water system. 'I
Reports submitted by the chalz,- '11
men of the Le. Fiesta Floral com- r,
mittees showed that the festival ot ~
flowers was the most successful tl
eve rheld. The co=lttee chair- b
men were given &. vote of thanks
for their efforts. l:
To Change :Requirements ir
Mr. Powell obtained- tbe promise f,
of the committee that prior to the n
1933 La Fiesta Floral a change In C
entrance requlren1ents throwing the
competition open each year to all J
gardens, will be considered. At
present, winners of fir,rt; place fn
the three divisions are barred from
competing for two ye&rl!.
It was .Mr. Powell's contention
that the policy may lower the
standard of the gardens and j
pe.rdize the owner's interest in
keeping the gardens at their beat.
''We should encourage gardens for J
what they are, not so they may
win prizes 1n our contest," be u
serted.
