high school ROTC units member-
ship in PR was discussed'to great
extent but it was brought to the
attention of the floor that a con-

be in order before high schools
could be allowed to obtain mem-
bership in Pershing Rifles.
This was the first National
Assembly to be attended by Co.
L-7 in the three years of its or-
ganization on the campus of

Do you personally know
your children s teachers?
VISIT
YOUR SCHOOLS
during
AMERICAN
EDUCATION WEEK
NOVEMBER 6-12
Isn't It natural to want to spend
a little time with the people who '
spend most of their time with
your children? Isn't a first-hand
knowledge of your schools worth
while? Especially in these difficult
years of swiftly rising enrollments
when teachers principals and
school boards deserve the active
interest and support of every
citizen. '
One of the best ways to learn
about schools their programs
and their problems is through
local community conferences on
education. If one is held in your
community during American
Education Week be sure to at-
tend. The work you do for better
schools is your investment in
America.
American Education Week has
become an annual community
custom across the nation. This
year the 85th annual observance
some 20 million Americans will
visit their local schools during the
second week in November. Shall
we see you then? .
