Dobbins Issues
Statement On.
Senate Candidacy
W. C. Dobbins, recently an
nounced as a candidate for the
State Senate from Laurens Coun
ty, is q native of the county and
operates an insurance business
in Clinton.
He was born and reared and
still lives on a farm in the Jo
anna community. He attended
schools in Joanna and Clinton
and Clemson College.
He is a former member of the
House of Representatives, hav
ing been elected to this office
three times. He is a Mason,
member of the Joanna Meth
odist Church, assistant teacher
of the ladies Bible class, past
teacher of the men’s Bible class,
charter president and member
of the Joanna Lions Club, mem
ber of the Farm Bureau, and
Clinton Chamber of Commerce.
Dobbins is married fo the
former Miss Helen Blakely of
Laurens, and they have three
children.
Mr. Dobbins has issued the
following statement:
“My service in the House of
Representatives fully qualifies
me for the office I now seek.
While serving in the House of
Representatives I served as a
member of the House Ways and
Means Committee. This commit
tee is the finance committee.
Serving as a member of this
committee has given me a broad
knowledge of government fi
nance. The Senator is head of
county financing, therefore
knowledge of this sort is of vital
importance to this office. I am
the only one in the race for the
Senate who has been fortunate
enough to serve on the House
Ways and Means Committee.
T am offering for this office
because of my interest in good
government, the economic
growth and progress of my coun
ty, and the welfare of its citi
zens. I pledge to the voters that
if elected I will put forth every
effort to work in harmony with
other members of the legislative
delegation, the heads of depart
ments of county government,
and the citizens of my county to
head the county in the direcUon
of growth and progress that will
enable it in the not too distant
future to take its rightful place
among the leading counties of
this state.
“The goals toward which I
plan to work, if elected, I will
disclose later on in the cam
paign.’’

Afternoon Closing
For Thomwell Gates
Thornwell Orphanage
24 February 64
Clinton, S. C.
To the Editor:
At this season of the year
our children enjoy bicycle rid
ing and skating in the after
noons.
Due to so much traffic
through our campus and the
fact that some people disre
gard our Speed Limit of 15
miles per hour and since our
streets provide the only source
of skating, we are going to close
the gates at 3:00 p m. each af
ternoon and they will remain
closed throughout the evening.
For example, both of the
heavy truck chains on our
closed gates were knocked
down by an unscrupulous driv
er this week. For the safety of
our children it has become nec-
esary to provide this additional
protection and care.
