Aldridge, sec' Ramparla we ufatclzecf We kept the old mill rolling. Thus Mr. Lyle Daverin, secretary of the School Board, summed up the activities of the board the past year. Among other improve- ments, they revised the transportation systemg made room in the curriculum for new classes, such as radio and sheet metal, and passed on the policies of new additions to school buildings, of which there was one to each grade school. They were fortunate to have with them this year Dr. Victor Thompson, who com' pleted his nineteenth year of service in the district, and Mr. J. J. Scott with sixteen years to his credit. Another outstanding member, Arnold Drimmel, was elected President of the King County Directors Association. These men, along with Mr. E. Y. Greer and Mr. Wm. Furman, have done a most laudable job. Keepin' Uut Of groubfe Handicapped from the start, the P.fT.A. valiantly made an attempt to have meetings as usual, a policy soon abandoned because gasoline rationing went into effect. Cnly three meetings were held during the year but the officers and members were kept busy with other activities. In the spring they sponsored the bifannual meeting of the King County Convenf tion. This convention, which was attended by a delegate from each school in the county, took place April 10, at Mount View School. Working in cooperation with the P.fT.A,, pupils from Miss Shipley's speech class participated in the convention, carrying on a panel discussion of the subject, What Children Expect of Their Parents in P.fT.A. Pat Mallahan, Caren Brown, Jack Mayer, and Pat Lord, with the assistance of others, spoke on different phases of the topic from juvenile delinquency to post war education. The Glee Club, directed by Mr. Lemon, added the musical touch to the program.
