Page Sixteen THE CHIPMUNK Serjior P ropt) y WESTWOOD SUGAR PINE VOLUME X Westwood, California, Friday June 7, 1939 No. 28 Mayorship of Greenville Decided in Close Contest Due to the ardent electioneering on the part of his campaign manager, Miss Marjorie Gardner, President of the S. of O. M. (Society of Old Maids), Mr. Vernon Newton won a decisive victory over his opponent, Mr. Austin Scott, for Mayor of Greenville. Since 1934 Mayor-Elect Newton formerly of West- wood has been employed as a clerk of the Traveller’s Hotel in Greenville. He will assume the duties of office on August 1, 1939. The vanquished candidate in all pro- bability, will resume his position on the faculty of the Greenville High School, where he has been employed in the capacity of head athletic coach. Well Known Explorer To Visit Westwood Before leaving for South America, Mr. Tom Clark, well known explorer, will spend a few days in Westwood with his mother and friends. Mr. Clark se- cured fame in his explorations of Cen- tral Africa. Recently his interest has been centered in unexplored sections of Brazil. On Thursday June 20, Mr. Clark plans to leave for Los Angeles from where he will proceed by plane to Rio de Janiero. Retirement of Our Renowned Postmistress Yesterday marked the closing of Miss Eva Cyr’s term of office as postmis- tress of Westwood. She has served the public in more ways than one. Along with her regular duties as postmistress she has faithfully kept tab on every promising love affair in town, and has kept us duly informed as to the progress that has been made from time to time. She will be greatly missed by many of the local cronies. Sisters Meet After six years of separation, the Misses Irene and Minnie Martin met in San Francisco yesterday and arrived in Westwood today. Shortly after their graduation from high school with the class of ’29, Irene entered the San An- selmo School for Missionaries and Min- nie entered the Mount Zion School of Nursing in San Francisco. Since 1932 Irene has been doing missionary work in the Sandwich Is- lands, where the Zulus have peacefully submitted to her iron rule. In 1930 Min- nie followed the call of her country and as a Red Cross nurse went with the troops to the Mexican Revolution. The Misses Martin plan to be in Westwood at the home of their parents, Mr. and Mrs. John Martin, until J'uly 8th.
