All of a sudden he hears running and balls bouncing up there. He goes up and all the balls are scattered all over the gym. He just finished cleaning the locker room and went out into the hallway and he hears the lockers. He goes back in and all the locker doors are open. Well they looked into who is buried in that cemetery and there was a 6 or 7 yr old girl who's mother didn't want her or her brother so she set them on fire in the woods. The girl died but her brother survived. She is buried right across from the front door of the new YMCA. Apparently this was big news back then. There is a preschool there during the year and now there is a summer camp for 3 and 4 yr olds. They think she wants to play. Here is the story. It happened in the 1930"s
