According to a report from the of
| fice of the state game warden, fines
and forfeited bonds totalling $2,-
; 163 were collected by Laurens
county game wardens for* violations

^ Total brought in from the state

608 last year, Director A. A. Rich
ardson said.
j Mr. Richardson said that the in
crease did not mean ' that South
; Carolina sportsmen were becoming
i worse violators but that the ’figure
reflected the' growine number of

The Community Chest
A news item in today’s paper an
nounces ‘hat a meeting of the board
*f directors of the Community Chest
said about the liquor business. No
good can come out of - it, nor can it
be regulated as the alarming in
crease in drinking shows. What ’is
the record? Drinking has ruined
many a young man despite the false
both pleasant alluring advertising of distillers who
pictorially say that a man of affairs
must drink hard liquor. They even
have the gall to claim that water
is bad and makes risks to the in-
dividual, and that none of these
risks are run with whiskey. 1
We should throw every protection
of Greater' Chnton is caked to pr?- p 0SS jVji e around our young men in
pare for the annual cmve to be mad*
soon. Directors whose terms have
expired will be replaced by new
members on the board.

A Community Chest is just what
its n me implies—an organization
to rape funds for charitable and

proper supervision the funds are
wisely and fairly distributed to the
participating agneies. . i
The idea back of the Chest is to
pool the charitable efforts of the ;
community into one drive to replace

Army Drinking Allowed
For ’he first time in more than
half a entury, the Army is- going to
allow liquor to be sold by the drink
md by the bottle to commissioned
and hion-eommissioned officers at
open messes. A directive frojruMaj..
Gen. William Bergin, adjutant gen
eral, made public a few days ago,
says the new system will bring the
Army into line with the practice al
ready observed by the Navy and the
Marines and soon to be adopted by
the Air Force. Sales of liquor will
be restricted to persons over 21.
Bars or lounges, the General said,
“must be constructed and located so
300, the balance from Clinton and
Joanna.
The South Carolina Heart Asso
ciation has nine clinics in the state
located at Walterbord, Greenville,
Greenwood, Charleston, Columbia,
Spartanburg, Sumter, Union and'
Conway. At Charleston is located!
the hospital where the operations'
are performed.
