What sometimes is a drab and uninteresting series of re-ports was given live interest by the man-ner in which each treated his particular part of the proceedings. * * * * * * * * * * NEXT WEEK Our next meeting will be devoted to instruction and initiation of members ad-mitted to the club during the Rotary year 1949-1950. (By the way, President Leon-ard is proud of the new members invited into the Club during M s term as Presi-dent. ) * * * * * * * * * * * * ON TO DETROIT President-Elect Allye Lawson expects to leave on the first leg of his journey to Detroit, on one of Ed Converse's Bonan-za Air Lines, next Sunday morning. The Convention of Rotary Internation-al will be held June 19, 20, 21 and 22, after which Allye will hurry hone to assist in the demotion of President Leonard. JIM AT TAHQE The "Wheel" reporter, Jim Shaver, is spending this week at Lake Tahoe with his whole family. A delightful vacation. They are expected home in time for next week's meeting. Probably Jim will make up this week at one of the Lake Tahoe Rotary Clubs. * * * * * * TEXANS There were a lot of Texans at our meeting HOME AGAIN "Tex!' Bladsnan and Rotary Ann Isa-belle have returned from an extended trip to the New England States, during which they attended some interesting meetings and saw many historic cities.
