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.

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

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

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

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’. You’ll find they agree,
the quality and convenience offered by J. C. Thomas, Jeweler.
You deserve
