Neighborhood plans to landscape
By Linnca Fredrickson
The Woods Park neighborhood will be a busy place
April 25, provided April showers don't interfere with the
planned activities.
The Woods Park Neighborhood Association has rcceiv
ed approval from the city to landscape 27th Street from
Capitol Parkway to Randolph Street and Randolph Street
from 26th to 28th Street.
Bill Tiwald, a housing rehabilitation specialist with the
city and chairman of the streetscapc project, said that
Sunday, volunteers from the neighborhood will plant
about 20 trees and about 200 bushes. Along the street
a park bench also will be placed in front of the Open
Harvest-II & R Block Building, 26th and Randolph
Street, he said.
Darlenc Brey, the association's social chairman, said
the tree planting is scheduled to start early that morning.
Other neighborhood activities also are planned for the
day.
Tiwald said the idea to beautify the five-block area was
his and Jerry Slominski's, a former president of the neigh
borhood association.
The project is partly an effort to establish a relation
ship between the business district and neighborhood,
since the two are so integrally tied, Tiwald said. Many bus
inesses suffered because 27th Street was widened and
some failed, he said, which affects the neighborhood.
Association formed
Tiwald said the Woods Park Neighborhood Association
formed about four-and-a-half years ago to oppose the wid
ening of 27th Street. Although the association was too
late to stop the street widening, Tiwald said, it was organ
ized in time to help with beautification after the project.
The city took trees down from Randolph Street to 0
Street as part of the widening project, so it planned to
replace those trees, he said. But the section of 27th Street
from Capitol Parkway to Randolph Street never was
landscaped, so the neighborhood association is tackling
it, he said.
Tiwald said other neighborhood associations told him
their mistake was not communicating with the business
district in their neighborhood.
"We're talking," Tiwald said. In fact, a representative
from the business district now sits on the association's
board of directors.
"We've aroused a nice community spirit, too," Tiwald
said.
Financial assistance
The association applied for assistance through the Lin
coln Neighborhood Self-Help Grant Program. It received
$5,000, most of it to be spent on the trees and bushes.
Gwen Meister, a community resource specialist with
the Urban Development Department who writes the
guidelines for the self-help program, said the city provides
the money for the trees and the neighborhood provides
the volunteers. The Parks and Recreation Department is
helping with planning and equipment, and will inspect the
plants to make sure they're healthy.
Meister said the grant program gave $30,000 to seven
neighborhoods last year. She said the grants helped pay
for the Malone gardening project, three neighborhood
house painting projects, bikewaywalkway in the West A
neighborhood and a couple of other tree-planting pro-

"Neighborhood associations are the going thing right
now," she said, and she is hoping the self-help grant pro
gram budget will increase this next fiscal year.
"We feel the grants really help neighborhoods," she
said.
Tiwald said as soon as the planting on this project is
finished, the association will begin another tree-planting
project for fall, this time in the residential areas.

Sdiiic loudspeakers cost mure than others.
But frankly, no loudspeaker worth listening to
is cheap.
So a careful analysis of what you're netting for
your money is nor a had idea.
Which is why we would like to bring you the
line of KLIPSCH Loudspeakers, and the KLIPSCH
HERESY Loudspeaker in particular.
KLIPSCH HERESY
Loudspeakers cost more
than others. A little more
dian some. A lot more dian
most.
But you'll think
of those additional dollars
as money well spent once
you've owned a pair of
KLIPSCH HERESYS.
Because under normal use,
the KLIPSCH HERESY will
give you a lifetime of musical
pleasure. Then probably do
the same for your kids. And
through it all, they will hold
their value better than any other
speaker on the market.
Here's why:
The beauty argument.
Aside from incredible durability, the KLIPSCH
HERESY is as beautiful as fine furniture. And it's built the
same way. Our finished wcx)d products are handrubbed
to perfection. All corners are perfecdy matched.
The sound argument.
Perhaps you're convinced that KLIPSCH
HERESYS are durable and beautiful. But those qualities
are secondary to an impeccably pure sound.
The KLIPSCH HERESY is the most efficient
fine loudspeaker in its class. The only fine loudspeakers
more efficient are other KLIPSCH models. This efficiency
means that the KLIPSCH HERESY requires less work
and wattage from your amplifier to deliver the full dynamic
range.
The KLIPSCH HERESY uses compression driv
ers in lieu of traditional paper cone tweeters and midrange
speakers. No color is added in this unique speaker system.
So the sound you hear is closer to the truth of your
Klipsch Speakers from $699 per pair at The Sound Environment.
And we offer a lifetime warranty on all Klipsch products. As your professional Klipsch dealer,
we invite you to enjoy a stunning demonstration of these speakers in our listening room this week.
The Sound Environment can accommodate you with a wide choice of credit plans including Visa,
MasterCard, American Express, our own credit option, or convenient layaway arrangement
with price protection. Don't hesitate to ask.

recording. You hear pure, sweet music - just as it was
intended.
The price argument.
So, how much do KLIPSCH HERESYS cost.'
Certainly not enough to keep you from listening to a
demonstration. Compare KLIPSCH to any other speaker
at your dealer. Which brings us to the important subject
of where you can find KLIPSCH HERESYS.
Like the makers of all fine products, KLIPSCH is
as careful about who handles our loudspeakers as we are
about the way we build our loudspeakers. So you can be
assured that your local KLIPSCH dealer is distinguished
by professionalism and integrity.
Visit your KLIPSCH dealer for a demonstration
of KLIPSCH Loudspeakers. You'll notice right away that
KLIPSCH Loudspeakers are a cut above anything else.
And if you're inclined to take a pair home, you'll be
noticing the same thing for the rest of your life.
