night, said it favors making
arrangements allowing t h e

system.
The three families live in
Chardon Twp. near the Lake

until the first of the year, was
thought to be in Chardon
school district. Old maps
have indicated the area ac-
tually is in Kirkland, and the
scounty auditor has b e e n

taxes for the Kirkland schools
from the three families.
The board made it c | e a r,
however, that it was asking

but "only a temporary solut-
ion to the problem in t h e
best interest of the children

Republicans can win in go
with enough hard work. and
emphasized again and again
the Importance of one vote.
The former congressman,
who has had experience at
losing elections. himself, sta
ted he would have won / asst
November if one more vote
in each precinct in the 18th
congressional district h a d
been cast for him instead of
his opponent.
(Dennison, of Warren, was
defeated by Congressman
Robert E. Cook, Democrat
of Ravenna.)
Immediately following the
luncheon Mrs. Hamilton Bell
Geauga County Republican
Women's Club, welcomed the
women and introduced T. r.
Dean, chairman of the county
central committee. He said
the audience was one of the
largest ever to gather for
this type of COP women's
meeting.
Mrs. Charles Wilkens, the
vice president of the | u b
introduced Dennison.
He suggested the Republi.
can party encourage and sup.
port candidates of high integ.
rity who are not afraid te
stand on their own convic.
tions, Republica Party sire,
myth, Dennison declared, is
derived first from men ano
women being controlled by
their own consciences rather
than bosses, and secondly
that Republican office holder
dedicated to their work, fee
a responsibility to their con,
situentS at home.
The organization of t h {
party, Dennison said, must
start at the precinct / le v e
working with persons of ev
cry nationality, creed a nc

Dennison Tells Women

ear OF Chester watches.

The Republican Party is
not the majority party in the
United States today, former
18th district congressman,
David S. Dennison told the
county COP women at a lun-
cheon meeting in the Manor
House, Punderson Lake, on
Tuesday.
Dennison, whose appear
ance Tuesday was the second
one here within a week, listed
that as one of six falicies
which Republicans themsel-
yes must acknowledge and
overcome before they C a n
win in 1860.
Another incorrect b e ief,
he said, is the idea held by
some Republicans that the
Democrats are stunned b y
what happened in 1858. 1.-THE
only thing they are stunned

However, he predicted the

involved, according to Supt.
Ira A. Garfield.
Parents of the children,
present at the meeting, were
told by board president Rev.
Charles w. Strong that the
Chardon system could n o t
accept the students without
charging tuition, either o
them or of the Kirkland boa
rd, at a rate established by
the state.
Schroeder told the Chardon'
board that Kirkland S C h o oil
officials had expressed t h e
feeling that it would be bet
ter for the children to stay
in Chardon schools, sin c e
they had started here.
Possible steps suggested
for allowing the nine young
sters to continue in Chardon
included an investigation of
the legality of the original
transfer of the Chardon Twp.
area to Kirkland, further con-
sultation with county offic-
ials and presentation of the
problem to state school head.
Don G. Williams, Mayfield
Rd., Munson, was suggested
as a replacement on t h c
board of education by the
Curriculum Committee of the
Chardon StatehouSe group
studying schools.
| In a formal letter to the
board they recommended
that favorable considerat.
tion be given to Don C. vii.
liams as a prospective
member of the school board
filling the vacancy created
by the imminent resignation
of Rev. Strong.
I'VE feel that because ol
this active and intimate as
sociation with the S c h o o
board work In the receni
past, and his current interes'
and effort on behalf of the
Chardon School System, hi
