Book telling history of Falmouth in the 60s raising money for cancer charity Falmouth life in the 1960s is the theme of the latest local history book written and published by retired Cornish journalist Mike Truscott in aid of Cancer Research UK. It is the fifth in his series but the first to focus exclusively on how things were in a particular decade. His chapters are accompanied by bespoke verse created by Penryn poet Nick Castle and the book is also notable for the final article for publication written by the late former local MP David Mudd. David, an accomplished author, broadcaster, journalist and historian, wrote the chapter headed “Why Falmouth And The Sea Are In My Blood” shortly before he died in April last year.
To the editor:
In November, the Alexandria City School Board voted to change the name of T.C. Williams High School. After a series of polls among students, staff and the public, Alexandria City Public Schools Superintendent Dr. Gregory Hutchings, Ed.D made the recommendation to the School Board to rename it Alexandria High School. The Board will vote on April 8 and the new name will be official on July 1.
Cost estimates by ACPS to implement the name change at T.C. Williams total about $325,000. Given the cost, choosing to name the school after the community and returning to the name of the city’s historic high school, until 1935, and not to name it for a person is a wise choice.
