pe ition, and, in so doing, enhance the image of South Bend
an create an atmosphere favorable to the development of
ar in our area and insure the best possible selection pro-
Mr. Lennon advised sometime ago the Commission had discussed
sculpturing for the Mall and authorized the staff to prepare,
based on the recommendation of Phil Simonds, (our architec-
tural consultant), a work schedule and the location of where
th sculpture will go. Mr. Simonds will have this for Com-
