RUCKER HOME FOR CRIPPLED CHILDREN

Mr. Darden stated that a committee of the medical staff had studied the possibility of a
new site for the Rucker Home but had decided that the present Rucker property was an ideal location.
Mr. Darden requested permission to proceed with the plans, with the understanding that the present
structure would be torn down to make way for a modern one-story home. The proposal was approved.
