The group authorized a special expenditure of $100 this year to defray costs of the trophies for boy and girl winners of fifteen events. Students in the fifth through eighth grades will compete, according to Gordon Amundsen, seventh grade teacher and director of the event. Mrs. Edwin C. Bell, PTA president, pointed out that this expenditure does not automatically renew and would be voted each year, providing the event continues. And the expenditure does not take the place of the PTA's annual gift to the school, which is voted usually at the last meeting of the year. Amundson explained that the trophies would be placed on display in the school, or possibly throughout the community, as an incentive to build student competitive spirit and public interest. The athletic meet is part of the school's general physical fitness program. A special committee of teachers and members has been formed to help determine a suitable PTA gift to the school. Committee chairman is Dr. Donald C. Sturm. The next PTA meeting Feb. 12 will consider world affairs and international relations, and will have exchange students as guests, according to Mrs. Lee Pickrum, program chairman.
