Big Tomato Grown
By Mrs< W. L. Boozer
Add another to the laurels of
big tomato growers.
Mrs. W. L. Boozer of Pine St. f
Lydia, reports a tomato that
measured inches in circum
ference. The huge tomato found
its way to the dinner table before
it could be properly weighed in.
Grown in her back yard, ac
tually right at her back steps,
Mrs. Boozer says her huge to
matoes are Big Boys, from seed
saved from last year’s crop.
Mrs. “' Carter
Rejoins PC Faculty
Mrs. Eugenia G. Carter will
return to the Presbyterian College
faculty this fall to teach geology
and a newly established course in
general science, Dean Joseph M.
Gettys announced today.
Mrs. Carter is the wife of Dr.
K. Nolon Carter, chairman of the
PC chemistry department since
1851. She served with him on the
chemistry staff from 195&-62 and
prior to that taught for several
years at Clinton High School.
Mrs. Carter, who has her BA de
gree from Erskine and her MS
from Vanderbilt University, will
hold the rank of assistant profes
sor of science upon her return to
the PC faculty. Dr. and Mrs.
Carter are active members of
the Associate Reformed Presby
terian Church.
Dr. Gettys said the course in
general science is being inaugu
rated as an additional non-labor
atory course for non-science maj
ors to follow a year’s study in
biology. It will attempt to survey
and correlate some of the import
ant theories and processes in phy
sical science and to develop a
basic understanding of them. The
course is designs! as a one-ee-
mester program granting three
semester hours of credit.
E. D. McCullough of 404 Pitts
Street, brought a basket of huge
tomatoes by The Chronicle early
this week.
The largest tips the scale at 2
pounds, 10 ounces . . . with others
coming close to that weight.
He reports that the large to
matoes were grown in a small
plot in his backyard. There are
four vines of the large variety,
grown from seeds obtained from
Marvin Stewart.
Anyone else care to enter the
tomato sweepstakes”?
