/ A. THE CLINTON CHRONICLE Clinton, S. C, Thursday, April 2, 1964 »: Scuulif Mateltali mm. Isn’t it just wonderful? That dry-cleaninf ma chine in the N6RGE CLEANING VILLAGE of AUNSPINE CLEANERS AND LAUNDRY. It saves two ways—saves in time because in its forty-five minute cleaning cycle it cleans eight pounds of clothes. And what a bargain—saves yon money because it cleans eight pounds of clothes tor only $1.51! And you can wash and dry all your other laundry at the same time at the NORGE CLEANING VILLAGE. A new spark plug didn’t do any good. Neither did all the evil thoughts and oaths to throw it in the river . . . and a good kick only resulted in a bruised toot. The power lawn mow er still refused to start. Then he took it to J. B. WHELCHEL’S GARAGE in Joanna where they do motor repair to all makes and models of poorer lawn mowers. Now it We understand that Vernon Powell is closing VERNON’S RESTAURANT and plans to become a touring concert pianist. Delayed April Fool, everyone! VERNON’S RESTAURANT will con tinue to serve the finest food found anywhere —and that’s the most likely place you'll hear Vernon playing the organ. However, It will be a while before he takes the organ-playing away from Velma altogether. With spring here, soon there will be plenty of fresh vegetables for the dinner table. And the best way to keep those spring vegetables fresh and crisp is with a Hotpoint Food Freeser or Re frigerator from LAWSON FURNITURE COM PANY. I bet yen’ll Ond that the sowings you’B realise on seasonal and special buys on meats, frosen foods and other groceries will make the payment*. Have you or your family had colds this past win ter? Do you feel the need for pick-up that will bring new vim and vitality? Then I recommend getting vitamins from HOWARD’S PHARMACY —they have vitamins of all kinds, including Su per Plenimens.

When you let an expert hair stylist like Paula Stewart of PAULA’S BEAUTY SHOP cre ate a hair style for a care-free spring and sum mer, you’ll have one that will be exactly right for your individual personality and facial con tours. Chances are, we’ll be in for more rain like last week (April Showers that bring the flowers), so if the windshield wipers on your car don’t seem to be doing the job they should do, I recommend driving your car into YOUNG’S GULF SERVICE and having them checked. If the arms and blades of your wipers are shot, let Carroll or Charles Young install new ones. You’ll be so glad you did next time it rains. Took a trip recently with my neighbor in he new OldsmobUe Jet Star. Later in the day sh asked me to drive while she fed her baby. An what a surprise! It has that big car feel of the road—yet steers light as a cloud—and has power to spare. In fact has everything—and more— that you expect that bears the name “Oidsmo- bile.” See for yourself at LYNN COOPER, INC. The story of M. S.

While I’ve never been guilty of leaving ”01’ Rover” at home with only a can of dog food and a can opener, occasionally I leave home early for FTA or Circle meetings and let the boys make out with TV Dinners from PIGGLY WIG GLY SUPER MARKET.

Baseball, Track Take Stage At • a B BY AL PEARCE The spring sports program at Presbyterian College, interrupt ed last week by the Easter holi day migration, will get under way here again today when the PC baseball team tries again to get in a game. This time the foe will be the Virginia Military Institute team of Lexington, Vir ginia. The Keydets will be the first team to face PC this spring, as tile rains stepped in to wash out the PC-Tusculum game sche duled for last Wednesday. The PC-VMI game will begin at 3:00 today on the Young Baseball Field. Because the Blue Hose of coach Billy Tiller haven’t played yet, and because its been over a week since the last organized practice, no definite starting line up can be named. In fact coach Tiller may not decide himself until game time, but two posi tions seem to be well in hand. At shortstop will probably be Tommy Williams, a senior letter- man from Pensacola, Fla., Wil liams, a four year varsity in fielder, will be working with second baseman Jackie Nix, a junior letterman from Bain- bridge, aG. Nix and Williams will weld the infield together, but other than these two positions the line-up is anyone’s guess. TENNIS TEAM TAKES IT ON THE CHIN The PC tennis team met head- on with four ranking tennis teams over the Easter break here, and when the dust had cleared PC had suffered three set-backs while winning only two matches. The bleak week-end leaves PC with a 5-3 record Co date. The netmen will not play again until April 7th when they travel to Athens, Ga., to face the University of Georgia. On the 9th of this month Furman will entertain PC, with the Blue Hose returning to Clinton on April 11th to play the Citadel. The holiday started off on a bright note as PC won over a good Williams College team, 6-3. The University of Indiana then promptly dealt PC its first de feat of the year by dropping the Hose 8-1. Only Howard Letzring could win a match from the Big Ten powerhouse. The Hoosiers were fresh from an impressive win over the University of North Carolina team, and PC had little chance against the more experi enced netters. The University of Alabama then upset PC 5-4 in a match Cross Hffl News MRS. HAROLD AUSTIN.

Box 1057 Greenwood, South Carolina AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER Born with a silver spoon • • • The old cliche about being ‘born with a silver spoon in his mouth’ began hundreds of years ago—when only the very wealthy could afford fine silver pieces and only those born to the aristocracy were assured the better things of life. TODAY, ALL THAT HAS CHANGED-EXCEPT FOR THE UNIVERSAL ADMIRATION OF THE SILVER SPOON. Today, any gracious home can and should have fine silver for dining. For, as J. C. Thomas, Jeweler, can show you, good sterling silver—while seemingly expensive at first—is actually extremely economical when you consider its generations of use. As with all fine things, however, special care should be taken in selecting your sterling silver. That’s why it’s important to visit Thomas’, where know ledge and experience can help you choose the pattern and style for your own personal taste, type of home and decor. SO DONT FEEL BADLY IF YOU WEREN’T BORN WITH A SILVER SPOON. BUT ... IF YOU DON’T HAVE THAT SILVER SPOON BY NOW . . . YOU’D BETTER VISIT THOMAS’. Ask your friends about Thomas’.
