TSTA, which stands for the Tex-
as State Teachers Association, has
started in earnest on its drive to
increase beginning teachers’ pay
to $3,000. The present minimum is
$2,403. The Association is striving
to make the teaching profession
more attractive in order to obtain
the 5,000 new teachers which are
needed each year as replacements.
• LITTLE or no talk since several
weeks ago has been heard by this
editor concerning Bosque County
taking part in the Blood Bank. It
seems to the editor that each one
of us is being mighty shortsighted
if this matter is passed by without
further thought. You or I have no
way of knowing when some mem-
ber of our family may need a blood
transfusion. We do know that boys,
some from our own communities,
are needing blood transfusions
every day in Korea. Yet, we are
satisfied to Sit by and not provide
this blood which can save your
child’s life, your friend’s life and
even your own life. A county not
taking part in such a “life-saving”
project certainly deserves little
sympathy from others when dis-
aster strikes.
SPECIAL—A supply of 31” x 44”
rough cardboard to sell at 5c a
sheet or 25 for $1.00 while this
