don't need one. Marilyn Kebschull will provide Board applications.
SIGNS
Members present then went upstairs to look at the three proofs of the signs Ms.
Kebschull had on display. fihe following comments were made:
Panel 1: No Changes
Pane12: The bottom bar on the cross on the church needs to be made
smaller and should go in the other direction.
The beginning of the first sentence should read "In the early
1900's".
and "Priest" in the paragraph should be "Russian Orthodox
.
Prlest".
Panel 3: No Changes
Everyone was in agreement that the proofs were very nice and they were pleased with
the color samples shown.
