They have set their sights for $3,000 for X-ray equipment and have already realized $1,500 in a one-night blitz campaign, soliciting from door to door. Another $1,000 has been pledged from the mills, and they are confident of raising balance. “I think we will subscribed,” chuckled Mrs. G.

Hope for local high school P-TA Williams Lake High School P-TA could take some encour- agement from a report on the Quesnel group which was sup- posed to have disbanded earlier thisyear. May Voss, Countess Ricci of London, $300 monthly. Mr. von Riedemann first came to B.C. on a world tour in 1892 and liked it so much that he re- turned many times to hunt and holiday. His son came here 20 years ago and bought one of the oldest ranches in the Cariboo from the late Wynn Johnson, grandfather of Charles N. Woodward. According to Mrs. Dorothy Thom, who is Regional Repre- sentative and attended the con- ference here last week, Quesnel High School P-TA is again going strong. A recent meeting saw 50 members out and a full slate of officers was elected from the floor. Mrs. Thom credits it to “ new interest and pep talks.” On the same level, Mrs. G. Binns, of the North Vancouver High School P-TA, reported having no trouble getting people out to their meetings either. Mr. von Riedemann scrupu- lously avoided publicity after he retired here. Although the name of Hein- rich von Riedemann was little- known here, it was well-known on the oceans of the world. The name was given to a 13,000-ton tanker built for Standard Oil in 1930. At that time she was one of the biggest tankers afloat. Thirteenth, his ry since 1950, will receive $75 for each month of service.
