Improvements included an arch built over the east entrance and re-paving of the driveway. The athletic field would have drainage enhancements and new sod, a fifty-inch-high fence was built along College Street, a cinder tract was created around the playing field, and a 600 seat grandstand was constructed. Local businessmen donated lighting and the new facility was dedicated on October 26, 1939.
