An early morning blaze destroyed
the Albert Burgees home at 27 Beattie
Street in Wattsville Sunday at 2:30 a.
Sheriffs Deputy Jimmy Stevens

said the family was away from home.
The fire was discovered by a passing
motorist.
Flames gutted the six-room frame
house and burned most of the furnish

articles of clothing and household goods
were saved. The Wattsville fire depart

Boy Scouts of the Laurens Dis
trict, Blue Ridge Council, are
currently in the midst of a “Go”
roundup, according to Bill Brack
ett of Clinton, District Scout
Executive.
Brackett said that the new pro
gram seeks to welcome into
Scouting’s ranks all the boys
who want to become members.
Local schools, be reported, are
giving top cooperation. They
have been furnishing names and
addresses of boys of the various
Scout age levels. Cub Scouting is
for boys 9, 9, and 10 years of
age. Boy Scouting starts at 11 and
Exploring begins at the high
school level.
Local Scouting units have ask
ed each Scout to find one neigh
borhood boy, invite him to a unit
meeting and call for him when
the meeting is to be held.
Brackett said, “We have heard
of many instances of boys desir
ing to become members who
were too timid to go to a Scout
meeting without having first been
asked.”
“Our units are vying with each
other to see how many new mem
bers they can absorb Into their
own ranks,” Brackett reported.
-‘We are prepared to organize new
units during the remainder of the
year,” he added.
The Laurens District has 10
Cub Scout Packs, 16 Boy Scout
Troops, and 6 Explorer units,
with 614 boys and 296 adult vol
unteers registered.
Interested boys or their pa
rents may contact one of the fol
lowing unit leaders: - --

as once
dents begin planning for the big
event of the fall—Homecoming.
The air fairly crackles with ex
citement and everywhere on*
goes, he catches hurried bits of
conversation concerning plans
for the parade tomorrow after
noon at 4:90 and the half-time
program at the game tomorrow
night. Football players, spon
sors, candidates for Miss C. H.
S., cheerleaders, and even teach
ers are caught up in the swirl
of activity. In chapel last Thurs
day students heard the speeches

C. H. S. The four girls are Jane
Milam, daughter of Mr. and Mrs
M. D. Milam, Jr; Janice Ruff,
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John
C. Ruff of Joanna; Mary Bart
Stump, daughter of'Dr. and Mrs.
A. B. Stump; and Shirley Ann
Timmons, daughter of Mrs. S. A
Timmons. Tommy Jenkins made
Jane’s speech; Wayne Hall made
Janice’s; Allen Barron made
Mary Bart’s; and Eddie Madden
made Shirley Ann’s. After chapel
students returned to their home
rooms and elected Mias C. H. 8.
Who is she? With four such won
derful candidates in the race, the
winner is anybody's guess. Not
until tomorrow night at halftime
will she be known
