A. President Mrs. Harry Baker was elected strained to carry out the policy} to serve as president of the Key West High School Parent-Teach- er Association for the term 1941- 42 at Tuesday's meeting. Other officers elected were: Mrs. Mervin L. Russell, vice- president; Miss Cynthia Pearl- man, secretary; Mrs. Donald My- ers, treasurer, and Miss Eliza Gardner, historian. A very interesting program was under the direction of Mrs. James Singleton, program chair- man. This consisted of com- munity singing by the members, a talk on “Science in the High School” by Miss Margaret Neff and a group of songs by the Glee club. A large gathering of members was in attendance, with Mrs. Hil- ‘la Salas’ home room winning the prize for the largest percentage | of parents. Three Marriages established by the majority of ‘Congress. Against the bill were recorded three Democrats, Clark of Idaho, Clark of Missouri and Wheeler of Montana; five Repub- licans: Butler, Langer, Nye, Ship- stead and Thomas of Idaho; one Progressive, La Follette. Senator | Johnson of California and Sena- |tor Wiley were paired against the { bill. and a sign of things to come, was the statement of Senator Connelly that the Finance Committee would bring in a tax bill which “is probably going to jerk some j}people out of their boots”.
