INVITATION

0 - ot Savannah as sponsor of the
revenue cutter yamacraw at the
launchin Q j the s j,jp on October 10
was tem ered Mjss Inez Tiedeman, the
w U Ttf' 1 ' of Mayor and Mrs. George

The mayor was also authorized to
appoint such committee or commit
tees as may be necessary for the
city's representation at the ceremony.
The matter of purchasing a silver ser
vice was not taken up, but will be
discussed by council later.
The choice of Miss Tiedeman as
sponsor was unanimous. It has been
known for some time that council
would ask her to represent the city
at the launching of the new vessel.
Congressman Adamson, through
whose efforts the Yamacraw has been
secured for the Savannah harbor, ask
ed that the mayor choose the spon
sor, and It was because of his re
fusal to do this himself that council
had to settle the matter.—Savannah
