judgment the ordinance of the City of Santa Ana approximates the Park
Superintendent's desires with reference to the regulation of parks within
the City of E1 Segundo.

and municipal property therein and that said City Attorney be requested to
consult with Park Superintendent McIlwain with reference to the regulation

so as to provide a better service and greater convenience for many of the
residents of the City of El Segundo.
