interesting and helpful points on
the clerk’s approach, method of
selling, handling of merchandise,
and the fundamentals of selling
and increasing tourist business in
this area by courteous, efficient
service and information. The
film, “By Jupiter,” showed the
benefits derived from being cour
teous.
Tuesday evening “Know South
Carolina,” the Standard Oil Com

the Chamber of Commerce film,
“It’s Everybody’s Business.” A
skit was also given on ‘The

j Mrs. Robert Bell. Tuesday win-

Presbyterians Now
Hard At Work
For Catawba
The injury jinx continues to
ride high at Presbyterian College
as the Blue Hose prepare to meet
Catawba at Salisbury, N. C., Sat
urday night.
PC fans had hoped for a
breathing spell after the Hose-
men passed the first five big ones
on their rugged 1954 schedule.
Number five landed last week
end, but that 20-19 victory over
The Citadel cost dearly and left
an already under-manned PC
squad in its worse physical shape
of the year. ,
Catawba thus looms as an
other real obstacle for the patch-
ed-up Hosemen.
In the hard-fought Citadel
game first-string fullback Gene
Carter of Concord, N. C.i and
second-string tackle Bob Westen-
barger of Lancaster, Ohio, were
sidelined—probably for the re-
maineder of the season—with in
juries. Carter dislocated his
shoulder, and Westenbarger suf
fered a dislocated elbow.
All-South Carolina Guard Lu
ther Shealy of Pacolet, was car
ried to the sidelines with a slight
concussion after playing 50 min
utes of tremendous ball. He may
return to action Saturday, but he
will not be up to his usaul best.
Sophomore Tommy Warren of
Allendale, who alternates with
Walter Yates at the other guard
post, is definitely considered out
for a week a sthe result of a stiff
neck he is unable to move.
Added to these Saturday bruis
es was a broken nose suffered by
halfback Johnny Armstrong of
Honea Path in Monday night’s
practice session.
Coach Bill Crutchfield already
had more than his share of ail
ments even before the new series.
The sideline included second-
string halfbacks Mitchell Mavro-
mat of Brunswick, Ga., broken
thumb, and Gene Butler of Con
way, spramed knee; fullback Ed
die Brockervbrough of Charlotte,
strained shoulder; end^ Ken
Daughtry, of Macon, 'Gk, bad
knee. Halfback George Blue of
Union, alternate captain, who
missed the Davidson game and
most of the Wofford tilt, hauled
his taped-up shoulder off the
bench to play against Citadel but
is still handicaped by it. And
second-string quarterback Felder
Cook of North Charleston, has
been bothered spasmodically all
season with a stomach condition.
Thus, the thin Blue line grows
thinner — particularly in the
backfieud. Coach Crutchfiel
cancelled all rough work after
the Monday night session. He’ll
spend the remainder of the week
in light dummy work, because as
he puts it: »
“It wasn’t that we don’t need
the practice. We simply cannot
afford the chance of another in
jury if we expect to field a team
this week-end.”
WASHINGTON AND HuSfcv* ‘ £
"SMALL BUSINESS"
By C. WILSON HARDER
«-.]■
Utah is well known as Mormon
headquarters. Whether one ap
proves or not of their spiritual
philosophy is of little moment to
news that comes of that state.
• • a
Bat It Is significant (hat It is a
matter of record daring .Great
Depression no Mormon was on
relief. Through^
nse of capl-[
talistlc .con-’
cepts of ln-t
creased pro-
luction and dis
tribution, other
principles of
sound business,
they met thel
problem bead-|
on and con
quered it. C.W. Hardar
* a a
Neither can Mormons be called
isolationists. In fact, there is
hardly a corner of the world
where Mormon missionaries are
not found.
a a a
Yet despite their demonstrated
long standing zeal to spread an
idea over the world, they have
never dissipated their hard won
substance at home, knowing you
cannot bribe people into accept
ance of ideas.
a a a
It therefore seems but logical
that biggest attack at present
on continuing U. S. worldwide
boondoggling is being readied by
J. Bracken Lee, Utah governor.
a a a
At this moment It la not known
If Gov. Lee Is a Mormon; neither
would clarification of this point
be of any Import. The interesting
fact Is that Gov. Lee Is preparing
to make a legal test of U. S.
foreign aid programs.
a a a
He states, “It has long been my
feeling that this program is con
trary to our Constitution.”
a a a
Gov. Lee also expresses hope
legal basis can be found to sub
stantiate his contention. While
Constitutional law becomes very
Involved, there appears to many
9 HU—I VM—U— «f
that this document and appended
BUI of Bights contains ample
precautions taken by the fsand
ing fathers to prevent either per
sons or their property being
seized for governmental whims,
even if temporarily such a whim ,
had a majority hacking In Con
gress. Therefore, many share
with Gov. Lee his feeling that
proper interpretation of the Con
stitution wUl stop this drain of
billions in taxes.
* « *
He points out that while foreign
aid, when first started, included
only Greece and Turkey, today
61 inations have nosed up to
Uncle Sam’s well filled trough,
a * •
And ironically, he states, the
combined national debts of all
these nations receiving American
taxes are less by $63 billion than
the present U. S. national debt.
* * •
And finally. Gov. Lee states
truths almost as old as mankind.
* * *
, ‘T do not believe yon can buy
friends with outlays of cash. The
foreign aid programs ought to
have taught us that by now. What
now needs to he learned is that
we cannot spend ourselves rich,
that the American taxpayer is
overburdened right now, and he
shooid not be expected to support
all people of the world.”
* « *
Footnote on Congressional
economy: The proposed raise of
dependency allowance for each
child for income tax purposes
from $600 to $700 which on aver
age would have given parents
another $15 per child was turned
down by Congress because it
could not be afforded in view of
foreign committments.
• * *
Yet same Congress voted $5000
to design and make Jassy gold
medal White House presented to
wealthy Tin Fan Alley composer
Irving Berlin in appreciation of
his patriotic songs. Yet $5000
equals savings on taxes that fam
ilies representing some 330 child
ren would havs gained by the
flM Increase In exemptions.
