Dish- es rattled on shelves, windows | banged, pictures were jarred out of their usual positions on walls and the seismograph at Spring Hill College, Mobile, Ala., record- ed earth tremors. No one could say what caused the “'quake”. Overnight, Pensa- cola had a first-rate “mystery” on its hands. Then came a belated explanation. Navy had the an- swer. It reported that three bat- tleships engaging in long- range battle practice 40 miles from! shore caused the “earthquake”. Listen. Teachers! We have here some informa-! tion of value to the school ma’ams ! of Monroe County. It was announced at a recent meeting of the © Southeastern Classroom Teachers “Association that there is a shortage of 40,000 teachers in the region. (Stay on the job, please.) Teachers of Florida are asked | by the CTA president to write the President to show him they support his proposal for federal aid for education. Classroom Teachers will. meet in Tampa at the same time Flor- ida Education Association holds its convention there April 4, 5 and 6. Officials of the associa- tion expect between 6,000 and 7,- 000 at the meet.
