SKS SPORTS PAR ON COLUMBIA ISLE Citizens’ Association Recom- mends Colored Bathing Beach Be Established There. Approving the development of Co- Jumbla Isiand, the reclaimed area in the Potomac river opposite the Arling- ton experimental farm, into a public recreation park, similar to Belle Isle, fear Detrolt, the Barry Farm Citizens® Assoclation, through Elzle S. Hoftman, president, brought the matter to the attention of Secretury Weeks yester- day afternoon Mr. Hoffman strongly advocated the Jocation at the east end of the island of the bathing beach for colored peo- ple, for which Congress has appro- priated $25,000, with facllitiss nearby Jor base , lawn tennis and other outdoor sports. The island could be made easly accessible, Mr. Hoffmun £ald, by the establishment of a ferry from the District shore near the Highway bridge or by the erection of a mole from the bridge itself near the Virginia end to the island Another approach to the island, he #aid, will be provided when the pro- posed Memorial bridge from the Lin- coln Memorial to Arlington cemetery is_constructed.
