Wing, Miss Mildred Mrs. Charles McJunkin. THEY SOUGHT NEW TREASURES THE WIDER the river the stronger the bridge. Realizing that there is a wide gap between home and high school, the Highline P.-T. A. chose as its theme for 1948- 1949 this slogan: Our P.-T. A., a Bridge Connecting Home and School. This bridge was made stronger by the election of vice-presidents from each of the eight school districts in the Highline area. These officers cooperated effectively with the other elected officers-Mrs. Charles Mclunkin, president, Mrs. Gilbert Blount, vice-president, Mrs. Janet Ford, secretary, and Mr. William Denman, treas- urer. Under the chairmanship of Stephen Doutrich the P.-T. A. was able to give a large sum of money to the student body and the school band. His committee was ably asisted by Mrs. Ralph Mayer, who managed the food concessions at football games and at the iunior and senior high dances. Programs centering around the four-point program of School Education, Health, World Understanding, and Parent and Family Life Education were arranged by Mr. Humbert Martin. . Guiding the organization through the year 1947-1948 were Mrs. H. A. Perry, president, Mrs. W. A. Wing, vice-president, Mrs. Charles Mclunkin, secretary, and Miss Mildred Olson, treasurer. Olson.
