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

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
