GRAHAM ARTHUR’S
If the enthusiasm of last Thurs-
’ day night’s public meeting is car
ried out it definitely looks as
though Exeter will have a recrea
tional supervisor in the near future.
* * * *
It was a credit to the citizens
. present at the meeting for showing
the interest they did in realizing
the necessity for a more active rec
reational program .than our town
■has been enjoying the past few
years. While we haven't all the
necessary facilities for an extensive
program, it was felt that to wait
until such ypas available would
mean several years arid that the
time to organize sports and other
recreational activities was now.
. * * * *
With the renovating of the agri
cultural grounds, the erection of a
new grand stand and possible new
diamonds, let’s hope that the serv
ices of such a man can be obtained
in the near future to organize soft
ball and hardball for the coming
season. Already there is some talk
of ball foi' this year and the young
er fellows are anxious to get up a
