executive via more public in terest That strong and real possibility stems from last week poor showing at the GBA annual meeting Only One new person outside from lust year executive attended which

could be adopted About half of this year s executive Is interested in reluming for another sen sou but to ensure a fair division of the work j I about Light or nine new members are needed Should the needed individuals fail to materialize the talk is the existing executive members might decide to focus their efforts on rep ball entire ly The reason being it would easier for the six or so

helping they had better make their in tuitions known soon The GBA will need its new members in the next week so another meeting can be ringed the executive selected and plans be for the upcoming I don
