Mr. Kobett also advised he had been approached by the Santa Anit Bowl about organizing a Jr. Bowling program which would start on July 11, 1964 at 2 P. M. and continue each successive Tuesday for a six week period for both boys and girls from 10 yrs. of age. He explained in detail the program offered. The Commission dis- cussed the pros and cons of such a program and felt that the local bowling alley should be contacted and apprised of what has been offered and see if they could make a similar offer in an effort to keep the business in Temple City. No action was taken at this time but the Director was requested to pursue this fur- ther for later consideration. Commissioner Adams asked if anyone had checked further on an area for a park in northern Temple City as he felt the Commission should push very strongly for it, to which they all agreed and will investigate and study properties that might be available for such a development. Mr. Kobett suggested the August meeting of the Commission on the 19th be held at Live Oak Park with some sort of program showing the Commission some of the activities of the department as well as craft work. The Commission felt this was a fine idea. 0 ADJOURNMENT: Councilman Gunst moved to adjourn until the next regular meeting on August 19th, 1964, to be held at Live Oak Park, Councilman Germain seconded and carried.
