David Knight's calf was declared heaviest. The club’s next meeting will be at the home of Clark England on Sunday, April 2, at 2 p.m. ------------ o------------ P.T.A. Program About one hundred and fifty people of the local P.T.A. met last Thursday nite, March 9, to hear a debate between Roy E. Tre­ mayne, speech teacher, and Claude Masters, president of the P.T.A., on the subject of federal aid to education. Mr. Tremayne took the affirmi- tive side of the question and spoke first. He traced the evolu­ tion of federal aid to education up to the G.I. Bill of Rights stat­ ing that it started in the thirteen original colonies. He said that he was in favor of the Senate Bill 246, which would give 300 million per year to the states so as to equalize educational opportuni­ ties. The fact that four million young people from five to seven­ teen years of age don’t go to any school and the fact that 95,000 teachers hold sub-standard certifi­ cates show the great need for such aid, said Mr. Tremayne. He con­ cluded his constructive speech by saying that we are in an educa­ tional depression from which mil­ lions of children are suffering and | that the problem is national rather than sectional in scope. Also that it is not a question of whether we can afford it; rather it is a question of whether we can afford to squander our greatest asset— the nation’s children. Mr. Masters reviewed our pre­ sent educational system, pointing out that it is working well and is the best in the world. He voiced the fear that such aid would con­ tinue the dangerous swing toward socialism, and finally communism, that this country ia experiencing today. He also felt that such aid would be a further step toward the centralization of our govern­ ment. His main objection was that federal control of our schools j would follow federal aid. After each speaker had given couple of rebuttle speeches, questions were taken from the audience. - ■ O- ■ — Register To Vote! — c o iti much le u thon 5 equivalent tin g le pu rp oie too li G et o SHOPSMITH . . . o complete w orkthopl I S " D R IU RRFSS D rilli to center o l 15" circle 8 ” S A W .
