radio alert has been received and
viii advise listeners in the South
side to switch their receivers to
60 kilocycles to receive civil de-
Tense information for this area.
All standard AM stations will
broadcast such information on

are reserved for that purpose. In
the event WFLO is aiterted after
the normal broadcastinS hours
the station will Be on the air on
$40 Is soon a. the alert informa-
ton is received.
No Call Signs
Since thre viii be many other
stations on the GAO frequency, re.
ception will not be as clear as fol
regular broadcasts. Another diff
ference will be that the station
call letters will not be used since
the purpose of CONELRAD is to
make radio navigation by enemy
bombers impossible. The ailnounc-
er will give his name and the
names Of local officials which
will serve for naturalization.
During the real alert. the station
will be on the air for 30-second
periods followed by off-the-ail
periods Of one minute. which that
cycle being nepeated through du-
ration of the alert.

IRE LEE ELEMENTARY

With the opening of school for
the 1956-57 school year, Mrs.
Josephine d. Mackey, our Prin-
cipal, is bursting with pride over
the record enrolment for Sep
TENDER with over eighty students
enrolled in the first grade alone.
Along with record enrolment,
we had three new requirements
to join our faculty. They are Miss
Alice Harrell, a native of South
Miami who did her internship
with us last year; Mrs. Naomi
Holton, who did quite a bit Of
substitute work with us along
with being a very active member
in the Parent Teacher Association;
and Mrs. Scavella, who was also
a regular substitute.
In addition to all of our joy
fulneSs there was also a note of
sadness with the lost of two of
our most cooperative co-workers,
Mrs. Alzelina J. Pickney, who
transferred to Poinciana Park and
Mr.. Nelson l.. Adams, who re-
ceived well-deserved promotion
as Visiting Teacher replacing Mr..
Carl Rhetta. Actually we have not
lost Mr.. Adams altogether, be-
cause he still serves us in the ca
pacity of Visiting Teacher. There
was another promotion in our
midst, Mrs. Clara M. Brooks now
has charge of our Special Educa-
ton Class.
Saturday night, September 18th
a lovely repast was given in
honor of Mr.. Nelson L. Adams
by the staff at the home of Miss
Georgia Mcmahon. Many unique
and useful giftsN were given to
Mr.. Adams. Mr.. and Mrs. John
Pinkney were also guest at the
party. Everyone had a lovely time
and left with expressions of a
delightful evening.
Monday night, September 18th,
we had the first regular PTA
meeting for the year. Mr.. James
Bowman, who has done a won
derful job as president in the pre-
vious years YVES unanimously re-
elected to serve again as president
for the coming year. We are hop
ing that he will have a most sue
cessful year.
In observance of Citizenship
Day, Mr.. Carl Rhetta was the
guest speaker for our chapel ex-
ercises. He spoke on ''How to Be-
come Good Citizen" The speech
was very interesting. He held the
attention of all the students
throughout the entire speech. Our
own Mr.. Adams gave some in
teresting and timely remarks.

activities this committee is also
