Twelve months ago, Calvin
Franklin offered his services
to the Joanna volunteer
Fire Department. "I
saw a real need for the
volunteer program and
that's why I joined the |
group," he said.
"I live within a half mile of
the fire station and all the
volunteers have a special
telephone hook up. We can
all be at the fire department
in a matter of minutes."
"Volunteer fire fighting
gives me a good hobby," he
added. "I can be of service to
the people in my community
while getting some excellent
training myself." I
Calvin is proud that he
recently completed a special
42-hour fire fighting course ?
offered through Piedmont
Technical Education in
Greenwood.
'The Course really gave m
me a number of training sp
exercises which will be
beneficial to the depart- ni
nlent," he noted. "We con- to
centrated on how to fight PI
different types of fires, the qn
proper rescue of injured a8
individuals, as well as proper
operation and mainte- ev
nance of equipment,"
"The most frequent fires
are automobiles and vacant

least one fire on each of

In addition to working f
with the volunteer firemen, B
Calvin spends quite a few B
hours in the spring and g
summer months umpiring
church softball games.
"I played on the Joanna
Hornet baseball team back
when the textile leagues
were popular, and I use this
