Community Chest Victory Torch
A torch now lights the way to victory during the
Community Chest drive, currently underway.
Erected during the past week, it reminds all who
see it that there is work to -be done and contributions
to be made. As long as the flame burns, it silently
conveys the message that the task is unfinished.
When the goal is reached, the flame will be extinguish
ed.
The torch, 11 feet tall, and metal-clad, is a gift of
Clinton Mill* Arvi will be used during Community Chest
compaigns in coming years.. It rests on a concrete base
and is a permanent fixture. It stands on the corner of
the city parking lot at South Broad Street and Blast
Carolina Avenue.
The torch was designed and built by Murray Adams,
tinsmith of Clinton Mills, with the assistance of T. D.
Douglas and the late Harold Wallace, Lydia Mills car
penter, who built the framework and assisted Adams
in the initial construction stages.
The gas burner atop the torch was designed and
built by Bobby Harris, local Gas Authority foreman.
Wyman Shealy, Gas Athority manager, had his crew
install the torch and connect it to the lines.—Yarbor
