courts on the East
Coast, 24 courts for summer
or winter play.' The mild
winters of the Southern New
Jersey seashore permits
shuffling the year around.
The shuffleboard courts are
under the jurisdiction of the
Ocean City Department of
Recreation, but the actual
operation of the facilities is
left up to the experts...the
Ocean City Shuffleboard Club.

more than 600 members, the
Club manages activities at the
court, stages home club
matches, regional and state
tournaments and plays the
gracious host to those visiting
the courts, whether to play or
to watch.
The Club members help
perpetuate the sport in Ocean
City by offering free instruction
in playing the game
to anyone 18 years of age or
older who is interested in
taking up the sport. Just walk
up to the beachfront court and
tell anyone "I want to play."
Shuffleboard play is offered
without fee. The Club
provides all the necessary
equipment, sticks, discs,
scoreboaras. chalk and
erasers, all the implements
needed to play the sport.

The courts are open from
8:30 a.m. until 9 p.m. weekdays
and from 1 to 5 p.m. on
Sunday. Appropriate lighting

Several years ago the
Ocean City Boardwalk
Convention Hall was
destroyed by fire and ever
since a quonset hut structure
has been serving in its place.
A new civic center by the
time Ocean City celebrates its
centennial in 1979 is one of the
capital improvement projects
listed by the city government.
There are several centers of
activities in Ocean City, most
popular of which is the
boardwalk Music Pier. But
the need for a new center with
more facilities has increased
as the community continues
to grow and progress.
The Ocean City convention
hall at 6th st. and the boardwalk
burned down. A temporary
metal building is
presently used for some
°ocial. p n t t i t d
athletic activities. But the
temporary facility is
inadequate, and the convention
hall would have been
outdated by now anyway.
The committee of citizens
who planned the bicentennial
celebration are also planning
Ocean City's centennial anniversary
two years hence.
The new civic center is a
major item on the program of
accomplishments the committee
has established for
itself.
The cost of the new center
will be raised through a
combination of public
soliciation and, hopefully,
Federal and State funds
designated for such projects.
The City government will
provide the land upon which
the center will be built.

government is gradually

New Jersey's municipalities.
That trend has come to the

Atlantic County still
function: under elected
commissioners, the Cape-
Atlantic area seems to be
inclined in this direction.
Since 1911, three elected
commissioners governed the
affairs and directed the
destinies of Ocean City. The
commissioners, for the most
part, worked parttime at their
municipal duties, and were
forced, by economic
pressures, to maintain and
work at private business and
professional operations.
Because-the growing community
has year after
year placed heavier and
heavier demands on these
"parttime" commissioners,
the job has become almost full
time. Because the commissioners
must work almost
full time at City Hall, many
people were discouraged from
running for public office.

government relieves this

census is expected to report
the population of Ocean City
at more than 12,000. This
would require expansion of
the city commission from
three to five. This 1 would add
about 936,000 to the commission
salary expense. In
New Jersey, the average
salary of a councilman is
about $2,000. Simple arithmetic
discloses that seven

NEW BEACH — Material pumped from the bottom of the bay and transported
across the island to the beachfront gushes from the pipeline to, hopefully build
new bathing beaches. This is an off-season operation. Summer visitors wont see
it in operation.
The ideal image of a
bathing beach is freedom in
the sand, sun and surf, but
people and circumstances put
a strain on these natural
resources. To maintain these
wonderful bathing beaches,
tons of rock jetties must be
built and expensive equipment
kept on hand and
maintained to fight the
constant battle of erosion of
the beach by sea tides and
storms.
In addition, a corps of
people must be employed to
maintain the beach, keep it
clean and free of health
hazards, and provide
especially trained people to
protect the lives of those
thousands who each summer
enjoy the sand and the surf at
this popular Jersey resort.
For years, since 1879, in
fact, the people of Ocean City
maintained the cost of these
maintainance and protective
forces. However, the rising
cost of modern society and the
growth of Ocean City as a
