Club Schedule Telephone 3-2121 Miss Bay Shaffer Society Editor Calendar items tor each day’s publication must be phoned in by 11 a.m. (Saturday S? 30). NOTICE TO LOCAL CLUBS, ORGANIZATIONS To simplify, for your club and this newspaper, the procedure of reporting forthcoming meetings for the club calendar, have your club reporter or secretary send to the Decatur Daily Democrat c/o Society Editor, a schedule stating regular time and meeting place. An example of this would be, a meeting held the first Tuesday of each month at 8 p.m. in the fellowship hall. If, however, your organization meets at the homes of various members you may have an advanced schedule that is given to each member. If this be the case then a copy should also be mailed. It is felt that if local organizations will co-operate much needless work and confusion can be avoided for you and the newspaper. Once the needed information is secured, « chart or file would be made showing the name of the club, and the date, time, and place of the meeting. This would then automatically be added to the club calendar sufficiently in advance and save embarrassment to the club secretary who forgot to put it in the paper until the day before, or worse, the day of the meeting. A phone call would be necessary only if there is a change of plans. Also, if your club does* not already have the schedule planned for the year such an outline of events would benefit all members. If you are a member of any of the many clubs and organizations in this area make certain that your reporter or secretary knows of this new system designed to save needless work and prevent errors. K your organization wishes to make use of this system, as we hope many will, be certain the information sent is accurate.
