f.* ThunjjayJljjr^MW^ mmm THE CLINTON CHRONICLE Experts “Live” With Ries Te Produce Super-Killer During the put six months, these spedallste have actually been living; day after day, in a room alive with thousands of highly- resistant flies. The flies were offered their choice of several hun dred newly developed “baits” and a careful record wu kept of die baits that proved moot attractive. It’s all part of a series o< experiments by Florida Agricultural Supply Company, Jackson ville, to produce a super fly-killer. In foreground is Herman Mayrax, entomologist and recording Important data is Paul & Howland, laboratory technician. " Jacksonville, Fla.—(Special)—How would you life to spend four or five hours every day in a tiny room swarm ing with thousands of hungry flies? For the past several months, I came up with a revolutionary that has been the torturous chore of Herman Mayeux, ento mologist of Florida Agricultural Supply Company, and Paul E. Rowland, laboratory technician. Their objective has been to develop further their highly ef fective fly killing product— which is in keeping with the company’s program of continu ous progress and product im provement Back in the Spring of 1954. Mayeux, together with Julian Jackson, in charge of produc tion and Jack Head, company chemists, and James R. Christie, a technician, after many hours of burning the midnight oil, FT7-M new approach to fly controL Their product after many suc cessful field tests, was named “Fly Flakes.” It conrfgted of small, dry granules and could be scattered around caged poultry, dairy barns, kennels, barbecue pits—almost everywhere that flies congregated. In lev than six months, the product gained national recognition, and mil lions of pounds were scattered. The new flakes, according to Mayeux, will kill flies cvenfast- er and remain effective longer than the history-making 1964 product They are already in production and this new ix»- proved formulation will be dto- tributed during the fly season of 1966. — Strom Two South Carolinians Honored During the past week the na tion’s capital paid high tribute to two South Carolinians who distinguished themselves in the service of their country. On Monday Army Secretary Robert Stevens presented the Congres sional Medal of Honor posthum ously to Mr. and Mrs. Norvln H. Barker of Six Mile, S. C., parents of Pfc. Charles Barker, in im pressive ceremonies at Tort My- er, Va. The following day final rites were held at Arlington Memorial Cemetery in Arlington, Va., for one of the greatest sol diers and educators of our time, General Charles P. Summers 11, former president of The Citadel. Pfc. Barker, Is years of age, sacrificed his life on the Korean battlefield in June, 1953, so his patrol could withdraw from ene my fire. General Summerall died in Washington at the age of 88 after distinguishing himself for 40 years as a brave soldier and for 22 years as the head of one of our country’s greatest mil itary institutions. • Although many remember the former Army Chief of Staff for his brilliant military career, we in South Carolina remember him mor evividly for the outstanding role played by him as an educa tor in our state. During his 22 years service as head of The Cit adel, General Summerall devel oped the South Carolina Military College into one of the nation’s outstanding military colleges; the cadet corps grew from 600 to 1800; and the number of build ings on the campus increased by almost a score. As a great soldier, he greatly strengthened The Cit adel’s military standards, and in additon he raised the scholastic standards there to a new high. In addition to my words of praise for both of these South Carolinians, I have also had printed in the Congressional Rec ord Pfc. Barker’s citation and several editorials in tribute to Gen. Summerall. Legislation of Interest To 8. C. The Senate has passed several bills in which a number of South Carolinians have expressed deep interest. On Tuesday we ap proved a House-passed measure that would repeal section 348 of the 1954 Agricultural Act. This section, called the cross compli- In Cooperation With the American Legion AMERICAN FLAGS CLEAie WITHOUT CHARGE Jaw 1 ■ Jim 12 FOR FLAG DAY, JUNE 14 ff j-,-,-f f rj-ffrrrrrrrrrrrr— Flag Day, June 14, is the day set aside each year for Americans to honor their flag. This year, it is more fitting than ever that we do so. In many parts of the world free dom today, is but a catchword, an ideal trampled under the heels of men who hate its very meaning. But in these United States, and in those parts of the world where it flies, the Stars and Stripes still tells its own story to all men who would walk upright—in Freedom. Flag Etiquette, the rules which have been formulated over the years for proper dis play of the Flag, forbids the flying of a flag that is tattered or tora. Flags that have achieved this condition should be destroyed by burning. Tradition also says that it is improper to fly a soiled flag—it should be restored, preferably by drycleaning. It is for this reason that the drycleaner listed below has offered his services to his fellow citizens. Help to insure “NEW GLORY for OLD GLORY." Bring in your flag—TODAY ...

As soon as it is sign ed into law by the Prehident, farmers who overplanted and re ceived prior approval from the local ACP offices to.do so, will be eligible to receive their soil building payments. On Thursday we approved a new formula for allocating REA loans. This formula gives the administrator of the Rural Elec trification Administration the power to grant more loans to co operative borrowers desiring to overhaul existing lines that are inadequate to supply the neces sary power to rural families. Un der the bill, however, 25 per cent of the loans would still be made on the basis of unelectrified homes* which today is less than 10 per cent of the national aver age. Another measure passed Thursday was a House-passed bill directing the Secretary of Defense to give state health and education agencies the first call on donable surplus government property. I also gave this meas ure my full support as a co sponsor of similar legislation in the Senate. Textile Safeguards Approved Senate and House conferees on the free trade bill have approved the three amendments to die bill offered by 16 Senators and my self that would safeguard our textile employees and employers against low tariffs on imported textile products. Final congres sional action on this bill is ex pected either this week or early next week. Good News From 8. C. The best news I received in Washington this week came from South Carolina and it was all about the weather. I understand that South Carolina crops got a wonderful rainfall amounting to several inches in most sections. This rainfall will mean millions of dollars to our farmers and to out State’s economy in general. After working for several months on drought relief measures, this is wonderful news to receive. in second place with one loss and two wins. Thomwell is in third place with Lydia and.

Hart to bring advanced scien tific chiropractic care at the lowest possible cost to the pa tient. Modem Instruments such as the Neurocalometer, Neurocal- ograph and X-ray equipment were purchased to enable Dr. Hart to quickly locate the cause of ill health. This has resulted in speedy relief from pain and suffering and savings to the patient. In 1952 Dr. Hart built a mod em clinic for the comfort and care of sick people. This clinic is completely air conditioned for comfort during the hot summer months. All of this was done without any in creased cost to the patient. In fact the initial cost to the pa tient was reduced at that time. Dr. Hart has kept pace with the latest developments in his profession by taking post graduate work, which further enabled him to get sick people well faster at less cost to the patient. Scientific instruments such as the cephlo-centroscope, densmeter and diarticulometer are used in pinpointing the ex act degere of msialignment of the vertebrae. All of which helps relieve the sick people at less cost. It is with great pleasure that Dr. Hart announces an other revision of the initial cost to patients and reduced costs during the period of treatment. This has been pos sible due to decreased operat ing expenses. ^ It has always been economi cal to get well at the Hart Clin ic and now it costs less than ever before. Call 22501 for an appointment or go to the Kart Clinic and find out how eco nomical it is to get well again. SCRATCH-ME-NOT WITH ITCH-ME-NOT!

Buick engineers took the hardtop body design that has been growing tremendously in popularity over the past six years — and gave it four doors instead of two. Simple? Sure~to all outward appearances. But it took a brand-new kind of body with wholly new structural principles to do it—to bring this long-awaited new kind of automobile to the public in volume numbers and at popular prices. For this is a true hardtop—with the sleek and racy look of a Convertible, because there are no center hosts in the window areas on either side. And now it has front doors for the front-seat passen gers—and rear doors for the rear-seat passengers —plus room increased to the size of a full Sedan. (It took some special kind of engineering magic, you can be sure, to hinge all four doors at their forward edges for greater safety, and more ease of entering and exiting.) yKW'Wzz*" it s the world 1 * fir** Principle of the modern !" 1IS f 0n wifh ,h « switch P* 11 " You get beher a P T $ Var ' Qb,e switch the »h:h iuT, ^ f r S m ' ,ea 9 e cruismg. lining., lk l ** ^ Pedal- sudden safety-surge tfaccelT ? efaway ' or * Performance thrill ^ n9 Pow « r - ft'- c« * 0 „ Mf ,o. no „ ^ 005 of wonder di So it looks like Buick has scooped the industry again —and come up with the hottest news in hardtops since Buick originated the first two-door hardtop six years ago.
