KING AWTREY ON u. S.
WARSHIP IN WAR ZONE

King Awtrey, son of Mr.. Bernard
Awtrey, County School Superintend-
ent of Cobb County, is on one of the
United States torpedo boat destroy
ers that are now operating in British
waters. This information was con-
tanned in a cablegram received by
MIR. Awtrey several days ago when
the flotilla arrived at Queenstown,
and has been kept secret for military
reasons until official announcement
was made.
This is certainly an honor for this
young man and credit to Marietta
as only the choicest of picked men
are used on these boats.
