WANT OLDER ALUMNI
MEMBERS AT REUNION

The reception and dance to be
given by the Perth Amboy High
School Alumni Association to the
members of the 1920 graduating
class of the local alma mater will
take the form of a reunion n get
together for everyone who has grad
uated from that institution from the
early "nineties' to the present time.
a meeting of the committee in
charge Of this years affair was held
in the high school last night. it being
decided at that time to hold the
close Of the commencement exercises
in the high school auditorium on
Friday night, June IS.
In former years a majority of
those attending have been graduates
of recent years. This yea the COM
| mittee Is endeavoring to bring to-
, gether the older members of the
alumni for a reunion. In order to
inform those who nav graduated
from the local high school during
the past twenty or twenty-five years
of this proposed dance and get-to-
gether, letters are being prepared
which will be sent to members of the
graduating classes as far back as
1900 or wen earlier if their names
and addresses are obtainable.
Owing to the fact hat many of the
alumni members have moved or been
married since their graduation it is
a difficult matter to notify each one
separately by letter. 1t was decided
last night to send to all whose names
are available invitations to attend the
reunion and also to issue through the
press an invitation to every graduate
of the local high school to be present.
1t is hoped that the spirit shown by
these alumni while in school will
again make itself felt and result in
hta or hnr oftnn1inn thn affoi. ao tha
night of June IS.
AS the dance will not get under
way until the commencement exer-
cises are over, the time set for the
opening of the affair is 1890. Ar
rangements are being made to con-
tinue the dance until early in the
morning in order that all might en-
joy a satisfactory program of lane
Ing.
Good music. one of the require
ments at any successful dance, will
be secured by a committee of which
Ezra Karkus, president of the 1919
class, is chairman. Another commit
tee, consisting of Louis p. Booz, Jr.,
of the class of 1906; Fred A. BRIGGS,
1908, and Ellwood Johnson. Jr., 1915,
was selected to draft suitable invita-
tons which will be sent to members
of the alumni.
A refreshment committee consist
ing of Misses Ruth Macan, Elizabeth
Dolan and Mitzie Kemeny was named
by the chairman of the meeting. 1t
was decided not to sell tickets in ad-
vance but to tax those attending upon
their entrance into the auditorium
on the night of the reception. The
members of the graduating class will
DE the guests of the alumni and not
be requested to have tickets. j.
Efforts will be made this year to
have this affair the first of a series
of real" alumni reunions with mem
bers of every graduate present. This
idea of making a special effort to have
the older alumni attend met with in
slant approval and 1t is expected that
the event will take the form of a
"home coming" celebration at which
acquaintance with class mates can b
renewed and an enjoyable evening
spent.
