SON BORN TO KENNEYS Joseph and Marjorie Rogers ney, 290 South Main St., are the parents of a son born on Friday, Jan. 3. He has been named Arthur | f William, Milburn Pond Plot (Continued from Page 1) ties wanted an answer to the pro- posal as quickly as possible. The Mayor explained the grant included the property in Baldwin as well as in Freeport, but that arrangements could be made tc tike care of this detail. Herbert | M. Wood, village* engineer, ex- plained the pond covered 15 acres and the adjacent land 12 1 - acres; making P. total area of 27 LJ acres. There was considerable discus i;ion us to the purpose to which the area could be put. Abraham Siegel, chairman of the Park Com- mission, explained a heavy expense would be involved if the properly, was' developed into a playground He stud fencing in the area would cost at least $20,000, -cited the ..likely cost of upkeep and mainten- ance after the property was de- veloped and said he would not want to have anything to do with a playground that involved a lako 'around' whicn children Were per- mitted to play. On the other hand, he pointed out, a park could -be laid out at a nominal cost as' it would need -no fence and little policing or supervision. Other speakers said that u mag- nificent approach to the village could be developed if the area wa^ laid out like Argyle Paik in Baby- lon or the park surrounding the lake in Brightwatcrs. Mr. Siegel's recommendation thti*. the association advocate purchase of the property was carried unani- mously, - —Mayot..Ryan,. with. Jthe.

They showed the proposed im- provements in the eastern end of the street, should attract shoppers from Merricfe, Bellmorc and other communities since they would pro- vide easy access to the interior parking field to be laid out in the block bounded by Church, Smith and Main st?., and Merrick rd. No formal action was taken on this proposal. - The association went on record as advocating the permanent estab- lishment of the helicopter airmail Atlantic-South (Continued from Page It i Pishel said he planned a trip to Albany in the near future, in an effort to, obtain the necessary ap- proval and also to determine if the orders of the 1 health authorities were mandatory. As roar, as ap- proval has been received, he ex- plained, the project would be placed in the hands of the Village Board to carry out. Mr. Wood said the estimated cost on the basis of 1941 prices was between $600,000 and $700,000, though he conceded this did not represent present day figures and doubt was expressed if it would be possible to get contractors to submit bids on the work under present day conditions.,;The length of time it would take to complete Uie work even if a contract was let was said to be problematical. Mr. FiShel promised to convey any information he obtained in Al- bany on to the a/ssooiation. Jules Auserehl, chairman of the planning committee, submitted re- commnedations for controlling traf- fic on Woodcleft ave., and adjacent streets, which were ordered sub- mitted to the . Village Board for consideration. He also proposed u system for the control of rowboat stations on which similar action was taken. President Tredwell H. Hopkins presided.
