PAST PTA presidents gathered with Mrs. E. D. Tussey to talk over old times. From left are: Mrs. Tussey, Mrs. J. L. B. Alexander, Mrs. Henry Harmon, and Mrs. T. L. Addington. A REAL BOON to Coyote health was the Parent-Teacher Association, which combined forces with the Health Department to sponsor such worthwhile projects as the hearing tests to all freshmen and vision tests to all new students. They were on hand to help, too, with the X-Ray program. As important as was their willing co-operation during these work sessions, even more impressive to students and teachers, was the cheerful attitude they displayed and their completely unselfish concern for advancement of Phoenix Union High School. LEADERS WERE Mrs. E. D. Tussey, president, Mrs. Roy Harrington, first vice-president, Mrs. Glenn S. Pace, second vice-president, Mrs. K. M. Gerrard, recording secretary, Mr. Harry Phillips, treasurer, and Mr, William Mason, auditor. They were solidly backed by hundreds of interested parents, including teachers with teenage children. OBVIOUSLY enjoying the food are these Parent-Teachers who attended the Spanish dinner which climaxed the membership drive PTA Campaigns To Kee C0 oles In Good Health
