Word comes from out Nevada

News of interest to many Rock
Williams comes from Danville,
Calf, from Mr.. and Mrs. J. r.
Asten. Mrs. Asten was a third
grade teacher at the Rockville
Elementary School for several
years, and a great favorite. She
has many friends here. The AS
tens left Montgomery County a
year and a half ago to make their
home in California. They are
quite in love with California,
which they find a most unusual
state. Their son, Dale, is, on the
carrier, Essex. He is with a jet
fighter squadron on a world
cruise, presently in Japan. The
Astens send their best regards
to all their friends here.
One of Rockville's favorite gals,
Mrs. Lester Burn, better known
to most of you as Sue, should
take a bow Sue was recently
made a Trustee of the West
Rockville Elementary School. I'm.
less our memory fails us, she is
the first lady to be so honored
in these parts. She is the first
lady Trustee of the Rockville Ele.
mentary School, of that we are
sure. Knowing her, and of her
great interest in our schools and
her ability, we feel this is a good
choice. Congratulations, Sue!
