From the archive: PDS finds a home 1934

  The Poughkeepsie Eagle-News

Saturday Morning July 14th 1934 NRA – We Do Our Part  3 cents a copy

Here it is:  July 14th 1934: the first media mention I can find of the beginning of PDS. Headline: Old Spaulding Home sought by New School.

The new school was PDS and the Spaulding House was at Hooker and Grand Avenues.

It’s below the fold on the front page. And on the front page – Hitler on the rise and the food crisis from the San Francisco longshoremen strikes.
