" ■ Laurens, July 12—(Probate Judge J. Howlette Wasson this week blasted legislation passed by the 1957 General Assembly relating to the issuance of marriage licenses and proof of age required before such licenses can be issued. He severely criticized the bill as enacted, declaring That it puts un due hardship on young people un der the age of 16 desiring to get married and those over that age who are unable to legally estab-j lish the date and place of birth. "The intent of the legislation is good, but the bill as worded is in my estimation “Very unsatisfactory and is unfair both to youthful ap plicants and probate judges in its provisions, Judge Wasson declared. He pointed out that the law makes it impossible for a youth less than 16 and a girl under 14 to be issued a marriage license under any cir cumstances. The judge said he had person ally always required proof of age but that the new measure goes too far. He opposed the bill in hearings conducted prior to its passage. It was signed into law by Gov. George Bell Timmerman, Jr., on June 11. The act is as follows: (a) No such license shall be is sued when the woman or child woman is under the age of four teen or when the male is under the age of sixteen, provided that when the female applicant is be tween the ages of fourteen to eighteen and when male appli cant is between the ages of six teen to eighteen and when the ap plicant resides with father or mother, or other relative or guard ian, the probate judge shall not issue a license for marriage un til a sworn affidavit signed by such father or mother or other relative or guardian has been furnished the probate judge giv ing his or her consent to the mar- She was bom in Greenwood) county, a daughter of the late Robert and Emma Turner Cal- i houn.

Red Spider Attacks Cotton In The County Farmers are calling his office for information on the control of red spider attacking cotton, says County Agent C. B. Cannon. Hot, dry weather is most favor able to the spread of red spider. The small spider-like insect, vary ing from reddish to yellowish in color, attacks the underside of the cotton leaf and causes the leaf to; show a mottling on the upper side. This coloring is often in correctly called “rust” on cotton. Red spider may be spread over large areas by people walking through infested areas, getting the spider on their clothes, or by driving machinery dusting cot ton, or animals. Red spider may be controlled by dusting with malathion, ara- mite, or dusting sulfur when the air is still. A hard blowing rain is also good in controlling red spider .
