Benninger Playground

Located on Madison Street between 60th Place and Fresh Pond Road, Benninger playground is named after former Queens Parks Commissioner Albert C. Benninger (1885-1937). Benninger was born in the town of [New] Germany, Canada, and moved to the United States at the age of four. He joined the United States Marine Corps and served during the Spanish-American War (1898-1899). In 1905, after leaving the military, Benninger moved to the Glendale section of Queens, New York. Seven years later, he was elected Queens Assemblyman, and he later served on the Board of Aldermen. In 1916, he served briefly as Commissioner of Public Works. Two years later, Mayor John F. Hylan (1869-1936) appointed Benninger Commissioner of the Queens Parks Department. In 1928, Benninger retired from this position, but was re-appointed two years later and served until 1933. Between 1933 and 1937, he served as Federal Marshal for the Eastern District of New York.

Benninger Playground is located in Ridgewood, a neighborhood that straddles the Brooklyn-Queens border near Myrtle Avenue. The community is bounded by Metropolitan Avenue to the north, the Long Island Railroad to the east, Central Avenue to the south, and Flushing Avenue to the west. Dutch farmers displaced the region's original inhabitants, the Mespachtes Native Americans, in the early seventeenth century. Later, English colonists gave the area the name Ridgewood for its wooded topography. In the 150 years after the area's first European settlement, the larger surrounding communities of Queens and Brooklyn took shape. During this time, many people argued over which of these future boroughs rightly held Ridgewood. In 1769, English colonists settled the dispute by placing the "Arbitration Rock" at the intersection of Montrose and Onderdonk Avenues, officially defining Ridgewood as a part of Queens.

The City of New York acquired this property by condemnation on August 20, 1936; Parks assumed jurisdiction on the same day. In 1937, the Board of Alderman passed a resolution that named the property Albert C. Benninger Playground. When the playground opened, it featured a handball court, play equipment, and a basketball/volleyball court that could be used as a wading pool during the summer months.
Fifty years later, the playground underwent a $623,000 renovation and Parks shortened the property's name to Benninger Playground. New handball and basketball courts, play equipment, safety surfacing, drinking fountains, fencing, and benches were added. In 1995, the playground received an $85,000 perimeter steel fence funded by Council Member Thomas V. Ognibene. Today, the facility features two handball courts, a full basketball court, assorted swings, modular play equipment, safety surfacing, a spray shower, and game tables. An inscribed bronze, bas-relief plaque, located on the outer wall of the comfort station, honors the life of Albert C. Benninger and serves as a reminder of the important contributions he made to the New York City park system.

VICTIM WARNED OFF HIGHWAY

An inquest into the highway death of 68-year-old Clayton Cassel of Plattsville, revealed that several motorists had warned the elderly man to walk along the highway more carefully, but he had refused to do so.

The five-man jury found that he met his death accidentally March 16 when struck by an east-bound car driven by John Battler, of Plattsville, while walking west towards the village along the travelled portion of No 97 Highway, about a half mile east of the village.

Several witnesses testified that Mr. Cassel always walked along the travelled portion of the highway, facing oncoming traffic, and they had to pull toward the middle of the road to pass him.

The accident occurred at 7:30 a. m. when visibility was good. No blame was attached to the driver. A panel truck driver said he almost turned his truck over one day when he swerved to avoid hitting the elderly man.

Norman Rellinger, another driver who goes to work in Plattsville every morning, said he almost hit the man last November as he walked along the highway. "About a week before the accident I told him he was going to get hurt some day and he said that he would look out for himself," he added.

Coroner Dr. II. C. McCaul, of Princeton presided. Jurors were: Clarence M. Bryans, foreman; John B. English, Donald Currah, Stewart Green and Jacob Gofton.

Sgt. Hickson Blasted Nazis

Casino Was Object Of His Attack; Two Men War Prisoners
Sept. 18, 1942

Two Twin City men are listed as prisoners of war and one is mentioned especially for bravery in today's Dieppe news.

Prisoners of war are:
Lieut. Arthur Breihaupt, Calgary Tank Regiment.
Pte. Alonzo Grant, Central Ontario Regiment

The hero, who returned safely to England, is Lance-Sgt. George E. Hickson of the 7th Field Company, Royal Canadian Engineers. News of Lieut. Breithaupt's and Pte. Grant's capture came through
the International Red Cross.

STILL AWAITING WORD

No further word has been received concerning five other Twin City men who saw action in the big raid and have been officially reported as missing. They are Sgt. Harry Basil, Pte. George Frederick Hoch, Cpl. George Teasdale, Pte. William John Irven and Pte. Carl Joseph Fuja.

Sgt. Hickson and Lieut.-Col. C. C. I. Merritt, the latter of Belleville, officer commanding the South Saskatchewan Regiment, who is missing, are mentioned jointly in the statement from the Defence Department at Ottawa. It reads:

"Where all were brave, it is diffcult and perhaps invidious to quote individual cases of gallantry," said the department, "but two such instances are mentioned here merely as examples of the manner in which Canadian officers and men maintained the traditions of the Canadian army and the honor of their country."

When Col. Merritt's battalion was held up by fire at a bridge on which many men had fallen, he walked back and forth across the structure waving his helmet and calling, "See, there is no danger here." Then he led his men across and cleared enemy positions on the other side.

BLASTED CASINO

"He led detachments against strong road blocks, personally disposed of a sniper and led parties against machine-gun posts. When last seen he was gathering weapons and organizing a defensive position to cover the withdrawal of the last parties of his unit.

"Sgt. Hickson was assigned to a demolition job in the town and, unable to go to it directly, attached himself to an infantry platoon. When the platoon's officer and senior non- commissioned officers were put out of action, he took command and led it to the Casino which he entered by blasting a hole through a wall.

"With another charge he blew in the steel door of a concrete gun emplacement inside the Casino and killed the gun crew. He destroyed a six-inch naval gun and two machine guns, then reorganized the rest of the platoon and led them against heavy opposition into the town. He was one of the last men evacuated from the beach."

PATRIOTIC FAMILY

Sgt. Hickson is a member of a patriotic family. His father, George H. Hickson of 42 Troy Street served for three years in the First Great War. Four sons in the family are in the armed forces while the other is waiting for his 18th birthday to come so he too can enlist.

Those on active service besides Sgt. George are Flight-Sgt. Harry of the R.C.A.F., who is somewhere in Alaska; Pte. Gordon who is on the Military Hospital staff at Shelburne, Nova Scotia and expects to be transferred shortly to the Irish Guards Regiment; Pte. Robert who. went overseas with the Highland Light Infantry two years ago, and Gerald, 17, who has sought enlistment in both the navy and the air force and will go to the branch of the service that calls him first. Gerald is a member of the 24th Field Ambulance (Reserve).

STUDIED COMMANDO WORK

Sgt. George enlisted in 1940 after serving seven years with the Scots Fusiliers of Canada (Reserve) and gaining much experience as a sergeant-instructor. He joined the Royal Canadian Engineers and, according to letters received by his wife, who lives at 111 Victoria South, and his parents, he has studied commando work for the past four months. His father received. a letter two months ago stating that he "was back in England again" but none of the family has received word as to where he had been.

The Hicksons heard from George by postcard yesterday. He thanked his young brother Gerald for some
"cigs" and promised to write as much as possible very soon. (over) "George is a modest boy, rather quiet. If he was back row, you would have a hard job getting him to talk about himself," his father, George H. Hickson, told a Record. reporter today while his wife searched the house for pictures of
the boys.

Helped Take 26 Prisoners

Now Full Sergeant, Kitchener Soldier Tells of Big Raid - Sept 29, 1942

By WILLIAM STEWART SOMEWHERE IN ENGLAND. Sept. 29.-(CP)

"Come to think of it now - Dieppe was a lot of fun," says Sgt. George Hickson in the manner of a man who derives modest satisfaction from a difficult job well done.

Hickson was a lance-sergeant when he went to Dieppe with a picked group from the 7th Field Company, Royal Canadian Engineers.

He's a full sergeant now with his third stripe only a bare six inches above two sets of Nazi bullet holes in the left sleeve of his battledress. He's not wearing the trousers that had the right knee ripped by another bullet.

BRAND NEW UNIFORM

"They just about ruined my uniform, and it was brand new too," says the 28-year-old soldier from Kitchener, Ont.

"But the experience of Dieppe was worth months of training, for me at least, and probably the rest of the boys."

(Canadian National Defence headquarters, in a statement released by Defence Minister Ralston on Sept. 18, mentioned Sgt. Hickson, along with Lieut.-Col. C. C. I. Merritt of Vancouver, as two examples of the "manner in which Canadian officers and men maintained the traditions of the Canadian army and the honor of their country." Col. Merritt has been reported a prisoner of war.)

Hickson, who is married and the father of two small sons and has four brothers in the Canadian forces, arrived in Britain in June, 1940. He went through combined operations training before the Dieppe operation and was given a special mission to accomplish in the French town when the Canadians struck.

LED PARTY OF SIX

He would be satisfied to describe his part in the operation with one sentence: "The 6½ hours seemed to take only about an hour."

But from persistent questions it develops that he led a party made up of a lance-corporal and five sappers who were to be covered by a party of infantrymen while their assignment was carried out.

Three members of Hickson's party and a number of the covering party were cut down by German fire as they landed from an assault craft on the beach in front of Dieppe's casino.

They raced through barbed wire half-way up the beach, crouched for a moment behind a seawall two feet high at that spot and then broke through a gap that had been made in barbed wire above the seawall by troops from the Royal Hamilton Light Infantry preceding them.

"A pillbox sitting on the esplanade was in our way to the casino and we had to wipe it out with grenades," says Hickson.

LONDON OFFICER HURT

Lieut. John Webster of London, Ont., who commanded the infantrymen protecting the party of engineers, was wounded and Hickson took charge. Hickson says when his party got inside the casino they found Canadians and other units were racing about knocking out Germans and taking prisoners,

"We took 26 prisoners," says Hickson. "Some of them gave up easily, but one particularly fought like hell. He had a little spot in a doorway surrounded by sandbags and he kept rolling grenades at us across the floor.

"The grenades looked something like tops and the Germans made them roll around us in a semi- circle from behind the sand bags. "Every time one went off it lifted us about a foot off the floor."

DRAW OUT BAYONETS

"The German was well-concealed all this time and safe from our fire so cold steel was the only solution. We got our bayonets out but he saw them and that was enough-out he came,"

Hickson said at no time during the operation did he see any Nazi use a bayonet of course, if they had we would have cleaned them up with ours."

After helping get the rest of the Germans in the casino out of the way, the four remaining members of the little engineers party split up. The lance-corporal-ignoring a wounded foot-took one sapper with him while Hickson took the other and they set out from the casino with a covering party now made up of men of various infantry units.

"They had been at work in the casino and I picked them up as they came along." explains Hickson. "They made a formidable little platoon.

AMMUNITION GETS LOW

"We scouted the edge of the casino and worked our way into town about two blocks almost to the cathedral. We had to stop because our ammunition was getting low and the town was full of snipers.

"But we destroyed telephone lines and electric cables as we went along to damage their communications as much as we could."

Hickson says that while his party was on its way back to the casino, he heard a signal for the reembarkation. In the casino his party and other Canadians placed their packs in a pile with an explosive charge and a time fuse.

They boarded, an assault craft, bailed with their helmets when it started to sink and then a number transferred to another craft which came along.

"We manned the guns for a while as our craft went about to others to help get wounded to destroyers. Another fellow and I volunteered to accompany a party returning to the beach to pick up wounded but were refused permission."

On the way home aboard a destroyer, Hickson says Nazi aircraft machine-gunned and bombed them wounding a number more.

"I think the raid taught us a lot things that can't be learned by just training," says Hickson reflectively. "I hope I get another one."

Six air-mail letters received from Gordon today have cheered his parents considerably. He mentions having a short note from Bob recently.

In his most recent letter, Bob enclosed a card which indicated that the men tad received communion just before the invasion began.

Surviving in addition, to his parents and brothers are three sisters: Mrs. George Begs, Homewood Ave., Mrs. Pearlous Sievenpiper, Simeon St., and Kathryn at home.
