STOMACH TROUBLE?
r
A young Clinton man had been suffering with Stomach
Trouble for over eight years. He was unable to eat as he would
like, and even then he would suffer vomiting spells and a con
stant severe pain in the pit of his stomach.
He was X-rayed while in Service in 1944, and discharged
due to a Gastric Ulcer. Severe headaches set in and continued
until 1953. Then he was advised to visit Dr. Jones by a friend
and after only five months he was dismissed as completely well.

Things are looking up these days
for the missus who goes a-shop
ping. Never has she been courted
so assiduously' by the merchants
who depend on her trade. '
Retailers are striving to find
out what you, the consumer, really
want. The topic was very much in
evidence this week at the annpal
convention of the National Retail
Dry Goods Assn.
Merchants think finding the
right answer wall lead them to
better sales and profits—at a time

The fast-shooting Blue Hose
teem appears well on its way to
writing new records into the Pres
byterian basketball book.
Foremost among these marks is
the remarkable won-loss record,
which features nine straight tri-
umps over Palmetto foes without
a loss. The overall record, now
riding at 15-3, could easily hold
up in this closing month of play
to better the previous top record
j of 21-7 posted during the 1951-52

season.
As a scoring machine, the Hose-
men have kept their points con
sistently high enough to average
91 points-per game on a grand to-

competition and rising costs.
For Mr. and Mrs. Average Shop
per, the new pre-occupation with
customers’ needs should add up to
pleasanter shopping all around.-
Here are some improvements you
can look for:
Salesgirls who smile, help you
with your packages and call you
by name.
A bigger assortment of attrac
tive merchandise, where and when
you want it, and at prices you
want to pay.
A whirlwind store expansion
program. Expenditures for chain
store construction and moderniza
tion this year are expected to
show gain of 10 per cent over
record 1954. This will mean more
new stores in outlying shopping
centers, and more face littkig of
older stores in established main
street locations.
Meanwhile, there’s evidence that
established retailers are taking a
good hard second look at discount
house competition. All during
1954, policy-making officials of
the NRDGA (it’s the nation’s big
gest retail trade association) de
nounced the discount merchant as
a "bootlegger” and discount mer
chandising as an “evil.”
But at their convention this
week they gave top billing to a
speaker who Eloquently defended
the discount operator, Asst. Sec
retary of Commerce James C.
Worthy (formerly a top Sears,
Roebuck & Co. executive) told
the meeting that the discount
house is here to stay
than the present
school record. The combined op
position to date has collected 1,-
358 points for a 75.4 average, which
gives PC a hefty 15.6 advantage in
the important point-spread de
partment.
A new individual record also
appears certain on the sharpshoot
ing of Sophomore Forward Roc
Ragan. He already has amassed j
513 points, with five regular-sea-
son games and at least two tourna
ment contests yet to be played,
and buckets along at an average
of 28.5 points-per-game.
Presbyterian underscored its su-
period during the past week by
soundly trouncing two old rivals
here at Clinton: Wofford by a 96-
74 count; and Olemson for the sec
ond 'time this season, 92-56.
