Austin B. Carlisle of Stockley,
+! was elected president of the Alum
nj Association of the local high
school at brief business session
held between the annual banquet
and the dance.
He succeeds Christian Z. Mack,
who automatically became a mem
ber of the executive committee.
Other officers chosen were Mrs.
Peggy Walls Booth, first vice pres
ident; DR.. Charles r. Cannon, Jr.,
second vice president; James H.
Baxter, Jr.. third vice president; :;
! slrs Helen Renfrow, secretary,
j and Mrs. Helen Pase Collins, trea-
! surer.
| Other members of the executive
committee beside Mr.. Mack are
/ Mrs. Mary P Carmean and Will
liam G. Lambden.
Feature of the evening was the
attendance of the two remaining
graduates of the class of 1896
Mrs. Mary Evans Barto of Wash
ington, ID. c., and j. Edward Cos
lee of Stockley.
Their class of eight was the
first to graduate from a public high
school in Georgetown. Previously,
students reaching the high school
level either attended a small pri-
vate school or terminated their
education. Mrs. Barto brought with
her program from the 1896 COM
mencement which indicated in sew
eral ways the trends in education
since that time. Among other
things, nine members of the board
of education were listed since in
those days the localities worked
out all the details of their school
systems.
Mrs. Barto has been honorary
president of the Alumni Associa-
tion for several years and Mr. Cos
lee was chosen honorary vice pres
ident
Dean William o. Penrose of the
University of Delaware, was the
speaker of the evening.
He discussed what he termed
1.-THE Demure British Election" and
outlined the similarities and diff
ferences in the American and Brit
ish elections, and said that the
Conservative victory was believed
by many to have put the United
States in stronger position.
Dean Penrose said that the is
sues in the British election were
much the same as issues here with
emphasis on peace and Prosper
ity." He remarked that members
of the defeated Labor Party set
forth that they lost not because
members of the party had shifted
to the Conservative Party but be-
cause they stayed at home and
didn't vote.
The speaker sketched the back
ground of British elections and dis
