<br />I and asked if it was not a fact that the Council had objected to the building
<br />1- , of the swimming pool and that they had forced the circulation of petitions in

<br />I~ been clrculated 1'01' the svnmmlng pool and that they had not been flled In tlme'~
<br />~ to be put on the ballot as desired and that the Council had gone ahead and
<br />i: iniated the ballot proceedings. Councilman Hawn stated at this time that the
<br />~: matter of a swimming pool seemed to be his baby a t the present and that it appeared
<br />i that the tax levy of $25,000 would not be sufficient to construct the kind of
<br />;! a swimming pool Eugene should have and that there would probably have to be
<br />i: additional money raised. He s ta ed that he thought a definite site should be
<br />I; selected and secured and tha t plans and specificat ions should be made to build
<br />i: the pool immediately after the war. 'rhere was no action by the Council and the
<br />:: delegation left the Council Chambers. Mayor Large explained that an effort was
<br />;! being mc.:de to secure a swimming pool location in the fair grounds and that some
<br />~ progress was being made in these negotiations.
