....... WHITONIAN ,,,m,- Parent-Teachers' Association On September 10, 1934, the Whitehouse Parent-Teachers' Association held its first meeting of the 1954-35 school year, coming together for a delightful picnic supper. The officers at the beginning of the year were: President Mrs. F. I. Holliker Vice President Gottlieb Bucher Treasurer Ted Billing Secretary Claudia Bender At this meeting the organization set the date for the fall carnival to be held in the cafeteria, October 25, 1934. Com ittees for the car- nival were appointed at once. Plans for an F. E. R. A. school were dis- cussed by Mr. Jordan, of Toledo. Arrangements were later nade, and two classes, Home Economics and Physical Education for omen, have been held regularly. At the October meeting a talk on crime and law enforcement was given by Mr. Frazier Remus, Prosecuting Attorney of Lucas County. Those present at the November meeting saw a picture show, presented by the Page Dairy Company. The spending of the carnival money was dis- cussed at this meeting, and a motion was made to spend 325 for dressing rooms on the stage. It was decided that the teachers would put on the next program. The date for the Christmas program was set as December 20, 1954. The net receipts from the carnival was 5224, the largest amounts being made by the raffle, the cafeteria, the show, and the bin- go stand. At the December meeting, the treasurer reported that there was still 3146.66 in the treasury after the executive committee purchased two dressing tables for the stage, costing 3l5.CO, and two hat-and-coat racks for 35.00. The teachers petitioned the Association for a Ditto Machine and a new dictionary, and the Association granted both. It was also decided to buy furniture for the men's rest room, to purchase an outside gong for the playground, and to buy rope or chains for the grade building swings. The following officers were chosen for l955: President Gottlieb Bucher Vice President Harry Shepler Secretary Lloyd Hennings Treasurer Edith Studer Mr. George Lum , president of the Toledo Parent-Teachers' Associ- ation, spoke at the January meeting. Mr. C. M. Townsend was elected President of the P. T. A. to replace Gottlieb Bucher, who had resigned. A Scout program, planned by Robert Holliker, was given at the March meeting, and the P. T. A. decided again to sponsor Boy Scout Troop 97. It was also decided to petition the town council for a street light at the corner of Texas Street and Route 64. Council granted the petition and the light has been installed. The organization is now working on a program to be presented at the last meeting of the year. The year has certainly been an active one for the P. T. A., and much credit is due both to the Presidents and to the fine spirit of co- operation in the organization. The school is certainly indebted to them for the work they have done. Hilda Townsend .........., 10 ..........
