Bring • A beautiful* autumn season lies ahead of us, although the j meeting at Roy Kent's office came to several infportant conclusions,] I Mr. Kent and Mr. Long had asked, the men present to state their opin-l I ions primarily about the forthcom-| !ing football program, but the ques-1 i overall organization to include mem- ! bers form the whole- surrounding | area; and related subjects were dis- | cussed. Father Baumhofer and Fred ; Rogers gave their ideas as related | to the two town grade schools. Mike Schoenholtz, athletic director of the public school in addition to his other capacity, had intended to come to the meeting but was prevented by illness. Jim Lennon, Bob Devore, Ray McGee, and Roy Kent represented the committee which is striving to raise the necessary cash to provide football equipment.
