-opportunities for recognition and identification. People andevents in.other neighborhoods provide opportunities forfamiliarization .and undeistanding. Themes 'common to the threeneighborhood patts of the program will help the child gain

-' insight.into the truth that although social ,circumstances vary;the human element remains the same.

causelithere's only one city playground with basketball hoo'ps

on it for our neighborhood, a lot of arguments kept goia4 on_ -

between the girls who wanted to play and the boys.whO wanted to_

play. What always happened was that by the time the arguments

were settled, it was dinner time and-no one, got to use the.courts.

Thii went on foracouple of weeks, until Jackie's older.stster

Julie _who'is th:6,...laYground leader,:came up to- us and said,

'I'Ve been watchIng,you guys and'girxs argue for two weeks now

aria noone ever winds up Playing. 'Wry don't we `all form-,one
