The 'Dads' C lub OFFICERS TfF.Yf1fC7ll - - - - - VV, -I, Eygqxs Vicz'-'l'ri'.viJN1f - YV. A. RILPlX' SL'Cl'!'ftZf'j'-Tl't'tIJIl!'L' ---- - - G. J. Gi-ivan HE Dads' Club, formerly known as the Dads, Section of the Par- ent-Teachers Association, was established as a separate organiza- tion at the December meeting of the dads, it being believed that better results could be obtained by operating as an independent group. How- ever, the new club has co-operated closely with the P. T. A. in all matters in which the mothers' organization needed aid by the dads. Among the activities conducted or sponsored by the Dads' Club this year have been a number of movements designed to assist and encourage the athletic and scholastic interests of Sunset students. The club was squarely and enthusiastically behind Coach Bushmann in his successful campaign for a championship football team. It raised a fund to cover hospital bills of injured players, co-operated with the Dallas-Oak Cliff Commercial Association, The Dallas Times-Herald and News-Journal in providing proper public recognition of the great record made by the Sunset Bisons, and with the assistance of the mothers raised the fund for purchasing the sweaters awarded to the letter men of the squad. The club was also active in securing employment for Sunset stu- dents and in seeking additional scholarships for Sunset graduates. In the fall a committee was appointed, with M1'. Fred Buford as Chairman, to urge the paving of jefferson Avenue in front of the school grounds, and promises were obtained from the city and county authorities to complete this improvement as soon as conditions permit. Mr. T. Conroy has been appointed chairman of a committee to se- cure the improvement of Oak Cliff Boulevard along the east end of the grounds. The club has held regular meetings on the first Thursday of each month throughout the current school year.
