Baytown Key Club Speaks to Kiwanis “There is no limit to what a man can do if he does not care who gets credit for it.” This is the theme of Baytown’s Robert E. Lee High School Key Club who presented a program on their work for local Kiwanians yes terday. James Rhodes, president of the Key Club, told Kiwanis members that his club was a service organi zation similar to Kiwanis, except it was serving in a high school capacity. The Key Club was organized 30 years ago as an organization de signed primarily to combat juve nile delinquency, he said. The club strives to do this by taking the leaders, or “key”, boys and placing them in the club, to set a good example for followers. There are about 30,000 boys in the U.S. and Canada who currently belong to the club, Rhodes said. He said the club did not strive for large membership but rather a small membership of good leaders. The reason for this, he explained, was that smaller groups work to gether more easily than does a large body. He cited his own club as an ex ample. The Baytown school has an enrollment of about 2,000 but only 37 select boys belong to the Key Club, he said. Three other members of the club also gave short talks, including ex amples of the club’s projects and services. Besides doing work in the school, they often work as co sponsors on projects with the Bay- town Kiwanis Club, and help pro mote safety drives, Scott Mann, a club member, told the local Kiwan ians. Don Hicks and Tommy Rhodes were the other two Key Clubbers here from Baytown. Also guests of the Kiwanis Club were members of the national champion poultry judgers from A&M. They are Kendrick A. Hol- leman, David Behlen, Clint Her ring, Carl Armstrong and E. D. Parnell (team coach). Another highlight of the pro gram was the presentation of a charter for Explorer Scout Squad ron 12 to Kiwanis President John Longly by J. G. Potter. Baker Promoted T. H. Baker III, editor of the Battalion in 1955, is now employed as make-up editor of the Garland Daily News after serving two years with the ,/Ur Force in Japan.
