Barry Wl The Voic The Red The voice of the Clinton High Red Devils is Clinton Mills Industrial Engineer Barry Whitman. Whitman finds himself high above the action in the press box at all Red Devil games. He records a play by play broadcast of the games for airing on Saturday noon following each game over radio station WPCC. "I'm in my second year," says Whitman, "with the station." "I followed all the Red Devil games, and a couple years ago, Lenzy Randall and I approached Station Manager Dan Lynch about a play by play re-broadcast of the games. Dan was receptive and we went on the air last year, and we were successful." Whitman added, "I'd never had any experience announcing." We went over to Clemson for one game and stayed in the press box with Jim Phillips and some of the other announcers. That's all mm w m ? wr Because it makes sense. The idea of citizens and volunteer agencies united for a single, well-planned campaign is clearly the sensible way of supporting commuUW Camps Solicitors I The following employees have been selected as United Way campaign solicitors within their respective departments and shifts.

"The Red Devils have a large following and I wanted someway to keep close contact with the Dlavers. The radio broadcasts have done just that." Whitman confines his announcing to sports. In addition, to the taping the games, he also has a weekly coaches report which is played twelve times on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. Barry is a 1961 graduate of Clinton High where he played offensive end and defensive safety on the 1960 Red Devil squad. "I don't have any particular format," says Whitman, "but I try to keep the listeners aware of the location of the football and the score at all times.

It is fair - for all segments of our community. The United Way Budget Commit tee's job is to relate needs to available dollars. They carefully study every request for funds by the separate agencies so that funds are made available on the basis of greatest community need, rather than on the basis of publicity and promotion. These programs are generated by the time, work and skill of dedicated men and women. The local United Way is the system through which these voluntary efforts operate. WHY IS THE GOAL SOMETIMES INCREASED? We are living in a fast growing area and a rapidly changing economy. Costs increase rapidly. The increased cost of living which you feel affects agencies in the same way. The goal must be increased to take care of these increases and changes. As population grows, the number of problems associated with growth increases. Health and family problems increase. Youth agencies have more and more to serve. Medical costs continue to increase. I i y? ? The shrinking dollar also adds to agency costs. Costs of living which you feel affects agencies in the same way as the individual. I DO NOT GET ANYTHING, SO WHY SHOULD I GIVE?

Maybe you have never needed the services of the Crippled Children's Society or a unit of blood from the Red Cross in case of a disaster, but these services are available and are here when you do need them. 1 DO NOT LIVE IN THE CLINTON AREA, SO WHY cum ii n i ruip ta -mn UI>\/UUL/ 1 UITEj IV/ inc. UNITED WAY HERE? Wherever you live, United Way agencies are working in your neighborhood. Your children or ycur neighbor's children are members of the Scouts or other young people's organizations; the Red Cross is teaching first aid, the Crippled Children's Society is helping a needy child. Giving the United Way makes it possible for persons less fortunate than you to get much of the help they require and deserve.
