College Commencement
Is Largely Attended
Larfe Crowd Of Parents And Relatives Here For Closing
Exercises; Ninety-Three Graduates Hear Inspiring Ad
dresses By Graves And McLeod; Honorary Degrees And
Commissions Awarded; Student Awards For Year An
nounced
WHOSE FABM IS THIS?
Two inspiring addresses were
delivered to the 93 seniors com
posing the graduating class at
Presbyterian college’s 74th com
mencement exercises last Sunday
and Monday.
A strong affirmation of the im
portance of the individual in a
complex world was sounded by
John Temple Graves in his com
mencement address Monday after
the Rev. Cliff H. McLeod had
preached his Sunday baccalaureate
sermon on the love of God.
Grarves, noted author, lecturer
and newspaper columnist, said:
"The dream of the past is the
vision of the future—remembering
that what founded and created am
great America was the, individ
ual.”
(He spoke under the oaks of PC’s
. outdoor chapel to an audience
which included 93 seniors who re
ceived baccalaureate degrees and
three honorary degree recipients.
The" honorary degrees went to:
doctor of divinity, the Rev. Clar
ence E. Piephoff, of College Park,
Ga.; and McLeod, of Sumter; doc
tor of laws, G. Creighton Pramp-
ton, of Charleston.
McLeod, pastor of Sumter’s
First Presbyterian church, deliv
ered die baccalaureate sermon in
the First Presbyterian church here
He said that God, through his re
deeming love, has made us sons of
God and we ought to strive to be
more like Him in order to be as
sured of everlasting life.
Graves pointed out the world is
teetering on the edge of peace,
brought about by atomic awful
ness which would kill everybody.
He labeled this Pax Atomka. Re
viewing this "saturation point of
horror" and the complexities of
the machine age, the speaker
said:
"You would think that because
of all this the individual person
should feel little and insignificant.
But it works the other way. We
don’t feel little. We feel big again,
because we are thrown back on
ourselves as individuals. This is
the thing thet made our country
great.”
Grarves said individual charac
ter has been out-of-date for the
past M years, years dominated by
three groups—the socialist, psy
chiatrist and diemist. He explain
ed:
“The socialist has believed in pil
ing on more and more government
at Washington. When things go
wrong, it’s not your fault as an in
dividual but the fault of the sys-
teqn. Therefore, the answer has
not been for the individual to
change for the better but to pass
another law.
‘The psychiatrist, oftentimes,
has said an individual is not re
sponsible for his behavior, that U
is the result of having 'been drop
ped on his head as a baby or talk
ed to harshly by a father.
“The chemist, although as a
group hes been at the forefront of
our new South, some have blamed
wrong on chemical reactions in the
body."
Graves challenged his audience
with the thought that now they
would step forth to join in a new
South that is the nation’s prom
ise, its spiritual bulwark, its po
litical balance of power and its
fighting heart. He added:
‘The industrial revolution of to
day’s South is powered, not by
steam, but by electricity and nat
ural gas. It is decentralized and
can be turned on and off any
where. It gives room to expand . ..
to live ... to breathe. H puts em
phasis on the individual, not to be
socialistic and against class war
fare.”
The Rev. Harry K. Holland,
pastor of the First Presbyterian
church of Marietta, Ga., and chair
man of the PC board of trustees,
presented the honorary and bacca
laureate degrees. And 33 reserve
commissions were awarded senior
ROTC cadets by Lt. Col. Francis
V. Smith, professor of military
science and tactics.
President Marshall W. Brown
presided over the program, and
Acadenic Dean Geo. C. Beilin-
grath presented these awards and
medals for outstanding service
during the past year:

Mathews and Joanna, the two
front runners in the Carolina
Textile leagues both suffered de
feats Saturday night as Ninety-
Six plastered Mathews 10-1 and
Calhoun Falls romped on the
league-leading Hornets, 15-7.
Ninety-Six, behind the eight-
hit pitching of manager Jim Voi-
seUe, scored two runs in the first
inning and coasted the rest of the
wmr.
Fallow and Foryister garnered
three hits each for the winning
Indians and Pratt slammed a
homer nad snigle.
Earle (Red Penny) Proctor,
was the only Wildcat to get two
hits off VoiaeUe.
Joanna ran into all aorta of
trucfele against the Clippers in
the battle between the** two
teams and was behind 10-3 after
three innings.
The Hornets committed 10 er
rors behind three pitchers, with
Torakny Foy, former Greenville
Spinner, getting tagged with the
loss.
Spears, Abanathey and Ralph
(Buster) Parnell banged out
homers to help pace the 15-hit
Clipper attack. Lyerly, with
three hits in five trips, was the
big gun for the loeera.
The losses suffered by Math
ews and Joanna tightened the
league race with Joanna holding
a one-game lead over Mathews
and Calhoun Falls who are now
tied for second.

agement for the loyal service
rendered over a period of years
by the employees.
Tonight Mr. Regnery said, we
honor those who have worked for
Joanna Cotton Mills ten, fifteen

and watches which you receive
are merely symbols of the sincere
appreciation we feel for the work
you have done in helping make
our company what it is today.
Along with these tokens, he said,
you are receiving increased in
surance riders which are further
proof that your faithful service
and loyalty do not go unnoticed
by the officials of our company.
I would like to extend my heart
iest congratulations Mr. Regnery
said, and: the best wishes of our
company to you on this occasion.
These gifts are not meant to be
in payment for your help, cooper
ation and interest. We cannot re
imburse you in this manner. They

our saying "Thank You” for re
