Berkeley setting up 1st of 5 centers for youths - The first of five neighborhood youth centers - one for each ward in the City of Berkeley - has been purchased from the Doddlesdale subdivision and moved to Jackson Park in the second ward. Berkeley bought the Doddlesdale home for a bargain price of $350, because the homeowner, Frank Kruger, former mayor of the city, interceded in the sale to benefit Berkeley's youth. The Jackson Park center is scheduled to open in about 30 days, together with another youth center planned for a 4-acre site at 8635 Evans Lane.
