THE CLINTON CHRONICLE Clinton, S. C., Thursday, October fi, lOGf. 4-H’er of the Week Shown above is Mike Wickham being congratulated by H. L. Eason, Assistant County Agent, upon his being named “high nidividual scorer” in the State 4-H Soil Judging Contest held at Clemson during State 4-H Club Week. The team will receive an expense-paid trip to Oklahoma City, ‘Okla.. in April to compete in the Na tional Soil Judging Contest.—County Ext. Office Photo. i , By H. L. EASON Assistant County Agent Four-H offers many things to many people and the wide selection of projects offered appeals to all ages. We hear frequently from adults who were in 4-H comment that “once a 4-H’er, always a 4-H’er.” I believe this will apply to our 4-H’ers of the week. Mike Wickham. Mike, son of Mr. and Mrs. R. L. Wickham of Clinton, has just completed his final year as an active 4-H Club member and is pursuing a higher education at Presby terian College in Clinton as a freshman. His plans are to complete two years of college and transfer to the Univer sity of Georgia where he plans to study Agronomy. Q Mike is eighteen years of age and has completed bight years of 4-H Club work with projects completed in dairy ing, beef, beef judging, and soil judging. It was in this last activity that Mike cer tainly excelled. While at Clemson University in July for “State 4-H Club Week.” Mike was proclaimed “high individual” in soil judging of all members competing. This was the highest award avail able in soil judging. His team-mates were second and fifth high scorers in the state contest making the team from Laurens County first and giv ing them the honor of repre senting South Carolina in the National Soil Judging Con test to be held at Oklahoma City, Okla. next April. i Mike began his 4-H career wtih a purebred Guernsey calf. He showed at various area fairs. After a few years, he decided to switch to beef cattle 'and purchased a pure bred Hereford heifer. He has shown his heifer, now a cow, at Laurens -County Fair. Up per S. Q. State Fair, and the Newberxy-Saluda County Fair where he always did a credi table job in the show ring. Mike was a member of the Laurens County 4-H Livestock Judging Team for two years but decided he would rather judge soil. 1966 was his third year as a member of the soil judging team and the year he had predicted would be Lau rens’ best. - When not busy at school, you will probably find Mike examining rocks or searching for arrowheads in pursuing his hobby of geology. 1 guess soil judging was a natural for him at that. Mike was a member of the Laurens County 4-H Livestock Club during his eight years of 4-H Club work, ahd I’m sure the Club will miss him and the other seniors who gradu ated this year. But our lead er, Mr. Bob Wickham, says we have a fine crop of new members coming along. Who knows, maybe one or two will one day be able to fill Mike Wickham’s shoes. How Can I? ; S y* Q. What can I do about a window shade roller that jus4 falls short of the distance be tween its supporting brack ets? A. This can often be “stretched" by first removing the pin from the roller and carefully prying off the metal cap. Then slip a washer into the cap, push the cap back opto the roller, and replace the end pin. Return the roller to its brackets, and presto— you’re in business again! Q. Is there any good substi tute I can use for cream of tartar? A. When miking a cake that calls for cream of tartar, a good substitute is buttermilk. And if this is not sour enough, add vinegar. Q.

See TV listing for time. — ^ - . . ^ ■ “restraint... good judgment... understanding.. These are the words they use to describe Bob McNairs actions. The editorial below tells the whole story. TUESDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 27, 1966 McNair and The Guidelines We think it only proper that the South Carolina Education Association should clarify the role of Gov. Mc Nair in respect to the federal school desegregation guidelines in South Carolina. Since gubernatorial candidate Jos eph 0. Rogers has used the issue for political purposes, the governor’s po sition needs to be made clear and SCEA is in good position to do it. That organization reports that on numerous occasions during the past several months, the governor has met with the South Carolina Association of School Superintendents, its execu tive committee, and other random ized groups of superintendents to dis cuss the problems facing South Car olina under the law and the guide lines. In all such conferences, SCEA re ports, the governor “has been clear, explicit and consistent in his obser vations.” It lists the following as quotations from the governor. — South Carolina will comply with the law. — South Carolina is operating un der a “freedom of choice policy.” — South Carolina is accepting all applications for entry and transfer, to schools without regard to color, race »r creed. — The 1966 guidelines appear to go beyond the law. — No South Carolina district is being asked to go beyond the require ments of the law to fulfill the re quirements of the guidelines, — Every effort is being made to get specific information and clarifi cation on the guidelines. — It may be necessary for a South Carolina school district to test the legality of the guidelines. — If a school district should choose to test the guidelines, the state stands ready to assist. These statements reflect no such views as those charged against the governor. Indeed, in matters attend ing guidelines compliance, he h a s shown consistent restraint and good judgment and marked understanding of the problems confronting South Carolina school officials. Mr. Rogers has been hard pressed to find issues of substance. In the conduct of his campaign thus far, he’s raised phony issues to confuse the public. The federal guideline question is but a single case in point. Don ’t be confused by “phony issues ’! Vote for continued peace, progress and prosperity! Compare with care!
