NO. 2 PUBL SERVICE Plant s Pa} Begins 12th Year Perhaps you noticed on the front page of the January issue that the volume number carried in the upper left hand corner changed. Throughout 1962 we ran Vol. 11. Then in January 1962 we ran Vol. 11. Then in January, we changed to Vol. 12. This meant that our paper was entering its 12th year of publication, the first issue was published however on February 15, 1952. As a new-born baby, the first issue did not have a name. It was printed under the masthead of "The ClintonLydia News." Within the month there were more than 300 entries from employees in a Company sponsored "Name Your Paper Contest" to select a permanent name for the new publication. Mr. W. Pierre Burdette, now deceased, suggested the permanent name. "The Clothmaker," which was selected for the March 1952 issue. The four naop "charter" is sue, shown in miniature, had a generous offering of news, and pictures of happenings in the plants and communities. As today, attention was focused on our plant's safety programs, employee recrea- ^ tion, church and personal news, youth programs and retirements?things of real inC s Gary Goss Named tl|/< T II 1 King Teen <i Gary Goss, son of Frank Goss of Lydia Weave Room a No. 3, has been named "King t Teen" for 1963.

Dr. Hollis of Greenville Dr. Lawrence Peter Hollis. one of South Carolina's best known men will be guest MM A Dr. L. P. Hollis speaker at the eighth annual "Old - Timers" Banquet at Thornwell, March 8th at 7:00 p.m. Dr. Hollis is a man of many talents and honors. He has received national acclaim in the fields of education and human relations. His career of working for and with "textile folks" began in 1905 at the Monaghan Mills Y.M.C.A. In the fall of the same year, he organized the first basketball team in this section of the South. He is also credited with starting the Southern Basketball Tournament. When 14 textile community schools were combined into the newly-formed Parker Dis trict Schools in 1923. L. P. Hollis was named Superintendent. His progressive programs and methods begun there 40 years ago are models for others today. Four years ago, when the Greenville Chapter of the Society for Advancement of Management named him "Man of the Year" his profession was given as. educator, community improver, recreation promoter, church worker, song leader, back-yard cook, industrial relations consultant, speech maker, welfare worker, Rotarian and visitor of the sick. Although he will be 80 on Nov. 2.9, the future is very prominent in Dr. Hollis' thinking. He continues at a fast pace rendering "unselfish and untiring service to his fellow man." Recently as state president of the Senior Citizens of America, he was asked to promote. plan, and execute a program to meet the present and future needs of the state's elder and aging citizens
