This is an architect's sketch, drawn by Bellaire resident Fred Teas, of the proposed Bellaire City
Park which is to be built on the property where the city hall now is located, included in the park recrea-
tional facilities will be a swimming pool, two wading pools, tennis courts, a softball field, playground
equipment and barbecue pits. The swimming pool, unlike conventional ones, will be round with sides
sloping toward the center where the water will be the deepest. A community building is also being plan-
ned for the park. The project is being sponsored by the Bellaire Lions Club and Civic Club and has al-
ready been approved by the Bellaire City Council.
Swimming Pool,
Picnic Facilities
Included In Project
The city of Bellaire is to
have, if present plans mater-
ialize, one of the most beau-
tiful and modern parks in
Greater Houston.
Already sanctioned by the
Bellaire City Council, the
park is still in the discussion stage,
however, and according to the
civic organizations backing the
project, much work remains to be
done before the park becomes an
actuality and each citizen of the
city will probably be called upon
later to cooperate in the commu-
nity enterprise.
Two Sponsors
The park is being sponsored by
the Bellaire Lions Club and the
Civic Club. Fred Teas is chair-

Fashion Notes
4
The three-eyelet oxford featured
by some should b'; very popular
with the smart and mature busi-
ness woman. It's an elegant look-
ing shoe.
Girls who go to school ought to
buy clothes for classes with this
idea in mind, say the experts:
Choose things which are easy to
slip into, and not too much bother
to keep looking; nice.
Colors that capture attention:
bright red, kelly green and royal
blue. They're also warm, cheerful
colors for cool weather.
Another memo to mothers: see
that your daughter has plenty of
sweaters if she attends school.
They really are less expensive than
dresses and can be combined with
skirts to give her many different
outfits.
Incidentally, sweaters are being
worn inside skirts more often than
out. Responsible for this is the
passing of the "sloppy joe" sweat-
er, and also the new belts which
add nice tailored touches to the
costume.
Look for the side fringe on slim
skirts this season. It's very new.
And gray flannel skirts are a must
—can be worn with anything.
Flowers to Wear
A delightful surprise! A
corsage of her freshest
blooms! She will be so
thrilled, . . . and remem-
ber alivays the day you
sent her flowers "for no
reason at all."

KEEP YOUR FOODS IN
THIS NEW FROZEN FOOD LOCKER PLANT
Chill Room—Fresh slaughtered meat is allowed to cool here at 36
degrees.
Processing Room—After having cooled, the meat is then taken to
the Processing Room, where it is cut according to instructions: into
roasts, steaks, chops, or ground into hamburger or sausage. Our
new plant will also be equipped to handle the smoking and curing
of hams, bacon and sausage; fruits and vegetables for locker
storage.
Quick Freeze Room—The heart of our plant is the Quick Freeze
Room. Here your food products are speedily frozen in tempera-
tures far below zero. This quick-freezing is vastly important and
through this process all the original flavor, taste, texture and
vitamin-content of the fresh food products are retained.
EYES ARE
PRECIOUS
Outside of the brain, the
most intricate members of
the human body are the
eyes. Don't put off caring
for them. Call us today for
an appointment.
