Philly Plays Scrabble kicked off this morning when Philadelphia Deputy Police Commissioner Charlotte Council and Fire Commissioner Lloyd Ayers squared off for a friendly game of Scrabble in Parkway Central. Local students chimed in with strategies and help, and in the end Deputy Commissioner Council won.
