She stressed the importance of choosing the correct type of reading for each individual in a hospital and mentioned that many reading aids are available to patients in Veter ans hospitals and in - larger cities from public libraries. These include projected books for bed patients and page turners for paralytic patients. It was explained that neither of these facilities are avail abel at Camp White since the hospital is maintained on a small scale. The speaker said that 5,000 books are now in the library at Camp White, including all the latest magazines and newspapers. . - Miss Edith Holmes, libra rian for Camp White Domicil iary, told of the services a li- gon Teachers, installed new offic ers of the four Valley Parent Teacher associations in a joint ceremony held Tuesday eve ning in the high school gym nasium Heading the slate for the high school is Mrs. Van John son with Mrs. Robert Cherry, vice president: Mrs. Monte Heald, secretary; and S.

Mrs. Prather presented Kerby's traveling president's pin to Mrs. Aller and Ernest Hamilton made the past presi dent's pin presentation to Don Metcalf, Selma. The controversial issue of the proposed proposition to hold future Valley PTA meet ings jointly was discussed at length. Better attendance, bet ter programs and better civic achievement were the favor able aspects of the problems. Opponents foresee problems of legislation and the diffi culties arising from individ ual management in collective meetings. When the question of the legality of the vote of the as sembled group was raised, a committee of the three in - coming presidents was ap pointed to draw up a work able, plan which will be pre sented to each organization at the first meeting of the fall session. Ernest Hamilton, speaking for the Selma school, de clared Selma would not join the combine as - the greater distance members would have to travel would prove incon venient. Miss Carmel White, daugh ter of Mr. and Mrs. Harland White, was awarded the local high school PTA scholarship of $140 toward her expenses at the school of her choice. -Entertainment was supplied by Van Johnson s dance band. This special group is drawn from students in the regular school band Refreshments were served in the home economics rooms during the social hour at the close of the meeting.
