DEPUTY MAKES IN PARKLAND I FIRST ARREST DON KNAPP PLANS TO ENFORCE SPEED LAW, CURB CRIME WAVE " . _ lhe first arrest by Don .Knapp, 26-year-old Parklan? special dept_1ty, _was made last _ Saturday when . t I1e e:nploye ot a local busmess estab!tshment was taken to the prosecuting attorney's office on a charge of stealing $500 in cash receipts over a period of time. Ue admitted the theft and made arrangements to pay off the loss. The prosecutor agreed to withhold his name on the supposition he make reg·tilar payments. Meanwhile he will be booked under technical arrest. Knap1i, who was authorized by Sheriff "Lee" Croft last week to carry a belt and gun, has been having a busy time chasing speeders. 1-1 e says, "There is definite need for more speed limit signs. Many of those detained give the excuse that they are unaware that a speed limit exists." \Vhile he has arrested none of the nnmerous persons stopped, he has issued warning·s, and will conduct a vigorous campaign against speeders in the near future. ''Li\'eS of our residents are in danger when it is often necessary to drive .10 blocks or more to catch up with drivers who apparently believe nothing can be done in Parkland," he declared. 1' napp, father t1f three children, who is building a bicycle ancl radio shop on Parkland's main thorough fare, is authorized to make on the spot arrests and to assist sheriffs deputies enforce the law. l-1 c receives 110 salary and has taken on the duties because he "feels something should be done to stop the wave of crime ancl juvenile delinquency that has

Mrs. Clifford 0. Olson reported that early Tuesday two beautiful deer came out of the shrubbery across from their home on Park Avenue, crossed over into their yard, went on through the J.P. Pflueger yard, jumped the fence, and were last s e e n go in g leisurely down Thurman street toward the Mountairu Highway. Residents of more than 30 years in Parkland say that deer have not been seen before so close to the residential district. It is reported that a large number of deer are now roaming the reservation around Roy.

The crowd was not large, but those who took part had an exciting time at Parkland's first annual fish derby at Spanaway Lake last Saturday. Youngsters in particnlar were enthusiastic about ·the event, the first sporting activity to be sponsored by Parkland Business Club. Only complaint was: "Th ere sl10nld have been more fish!" A not unco111n10n grumble for fishermen these days. Trout Winner Trout winner was Alfred Olson of Parkland who hauled in a 13 % inch catch. Floyd Harwood of Spanaway was second with a 12)14 inch haul. while Bob Rummer, PLC s-tudent, was third with a 12 ancl 9/16ths inch net. vVinner in the bass classification was Sid (;lasso of Parkland, who brought in a two-pound, nineounce catch. Longest perch was caught by Beulah Chandler of Spanaway lake. a 10 a!ld oneeighth hopper. Bicycle Winner The bicycle went to Bud Harwood of Spanaway who netted a 13~-'.\ inch trout; Garey Harvey of Parkland was second in the Junior <livisinn and Vic Knahel of Parkland was. third. The streamlined scooter was awarded tu Larry Gray, five year old youngster, who hooked a 12J.(i inch chub. Charles 1-!arkms \Vas o;econd and Fred Stovner third. Suggestions were made that a father-son c1·~,nt might pro\'c popular in future years.

Grid Ace Nabs Youth Looting Garfield Store Fleet-footed Vern Morris, PLC gridiron ace,_ found that his athletic training came in handy Thursday night when he dashed - in bare feet - down Garfield street to capture a 16year-old youth who was looting a sto,re. Morris was "alerted" when he heard calls f r o m Luther Watness and Miss Isabel Harstad, who were passing The Bug, local refreshments spot, when they noticed someone inside at a late hour. The calls routed the intruder, who hurried through a window pane in the front door, which he had broken to gain entraruce, and started down the street. M o r r i s stumbled down the stairs from his apartment above and gave chase. He caught the boy a s h o r t distance away, breaking all records for the short sprint. The youth was turned over to juvenile authorities in the courthouse who will carry out disciplinary measures.

The Garfield paving project had a·n A-1 priority on Commissioner Harvey Scofield's road budget, aHd was thereby one of the first approved by the board when it reviewed the work to be done for the balance of the year. It calls for an as-phalt application on Garfield street from the college to Pacific highway. It also includes improvements on Park \venue.from Garfield to Harrison street and replacement of a 20 foot timber bridge over Clover creek.

How About Parkland Day? Puyallup has its Daffodil day, Shelton its Forest Festival and Wenatchee her Apple celebration. Why not a Parkland day that will call attention to the fastest growing community in Pierce county? We have all the advantages of many an incorporated city. Pacific Lmheran College is making plans for more than 1,000 students next fall, stores going up on the highway are in greater demand than there is supply and it won't be long before a fourlane highway will be bringing tourist traffic through our community on a scale that is greatest in history. The fishing derby held at Spanaway lake last Saturday was a start toward a community project, but. at best. it could not be called a gigantic success. Those who took part report every one had a good time. But, there were not enough fish caught. There were not enough sportsmen taking part. Perhaps, with Parkland's great asset, PLC, planning a much larger activity program next year, it could be possible for the town and school to work together for a Parkland day that would really bring attention to an area that has grown beyond the dreams of old-timers who settled here years ago. Let's have some suggestions. Anybody have any ideas for a truly representative Parkland day?

South End in 1960 Plans were announced last week for a South End community that will be built with a view toward streamlined living. as, say, it will be in 1960. The William H. Ford Company of Spokane presented plans to the county engineers and planning commission for a subdivision of 5 5 0 acres that will provide 15 0 cottage sites in the Benbow lakes area, Julf way between Tacoma and Mt. Rainier, on the Mountain highway. The fin;n is now clearing logs in the area that is ow'ned by D. S. ToBias of Seattle. Plans include an airport strip and golf course for the subdivision which will be known as Whitman Lake Addition. Portions are already developed for private use and tentative plans call for pieces to be platted into lots ranging from 3 0 feet to 3 00 feet, and l 00 feet to 3 3 0 feet. The. property includes three private lakes and one ublic

lake. Work has begun on two and one-half miles of roadway which will eventually be turned over to the county for upkeep, providing agreement is reached with county engineers. the officials indicated. Planning engineers have been scheming for years on ways of dispersing residents crowded together in large cities. It appears that here's a firm that believes so much in the future of aviation and commuter flying that it is willing to spend a large sum to be one of the first to take the step that will bring this age about. It is difficult to sec where such a project would end if other firms took up the challenge. Surely it would provide a higher standard of living for everyone. If the airplane ever reaches the popularity of the automobile, the South End, much of which is covered by trees and prairie, may some day become one of the most modern communities in America. Privacy would be assured each resident, there would be ample space about each home and an airport within walking distance would undoubtedly act as a lure to decentralization and more wholesome living.
