They stand for no argument. Bright
lights, violation of road rules and
other minor offenses, besides speed
ing, are included in the "indictment.

and all."

SOCIAL CENTERS
IN EIGHUCHOOLS
Recreation Board Approves
Program Worked Out by
Superintendent English.
SUPERVISOR AT EACH PLACE
Archbishop Harty to Be
Installed November 30
Archbishop J. J. Harty, successor
to the late Bishop Scannell, will be
installed into office Thanksgiving
day, November JO. The new digni
tary comes to Omaha diocese from
the Philippine islands.
It was Achbishop Harty's personal
wish, expressed in a cablegram to
Monsignor Colaneri, that the installa
tion services take place on Thanks
giving day. The exercises will be
held in the new cathedral.
The Recreation board last evenin..
approved Superintendent English's
program for opening of social centers
in the following schools, beginning
about November 1:
Central Park, Monmouth Park,
Miller Park, Kcltom, Castelar, Deaf
institute, West Side and Dundee.
The program contemplates engag
ing a supervisor for each center, as
was done last season; also in athletic
director for men and boV'S, and an
other athletic director for girls and
women. The centers will be open
four evenings a week and the ath
letic directors will divide their time
between the eight centers.
It is proposed to hold weekly con
certs in the auditorium of South High
school and an effort will be made to
take advantage of the gymnasium of
that school. It will be necessary to
equip the West Side school, South
Side, with lights and chairs. Super
intendent Booth of the Deaf institute
has offered to co-operate with the
Recreation board in making the so
cial center at his school a success.
The Dundee school is particularly
adapted to social center uses, having
a moving picture outfit, splendid au
ditorium aj;d a gymnasium.
Three New Centers.
The social centers will be opened
the first time at the Dundee
school, Deaf institute and the West
Side school.
The board agreed to back Super
intendent English in his effort to
get the 1918 meeting of the National
Association of Recreation and Play
ground Directors for Omaha. The
Commercial club is interested in the
project. Mr. English will attend the
next meeting of the association,
which will be in Grand Rapids be
