Inquest Jury Rules
In 3-Car Death Wreck
Lautens — The March 22
death of three young upstate
men was due to “ traffic col
lision” a coroner's jur*t-ruled
Thursday at an inquest in the
Laurens County Courthouse.
The youths, Donnie K.
Pressley, 19, of Rt. 1, Water
loo; T. J. (Tedw) Birdsal III
of Greenville; and Bill Thack-
ston, 21, of Rt. 2, Simpson

QUR RIGHTS — ARE THEY
. WORTHLESS?
The people of this nation —
tht United States of-America
— have given away more of
their rights gfgnted by the
Constitution in the past ten
years than in the other 169
years of its existence. * -
The people of this nation
should begin to watch w ha t
our lawmakers are doin^ and
should write and tpll them if
we agree with their policy or
not.
Some examples of our
“worthless” rights are ex
plained below as they come
from the Constitution of 1789
and the Constitution of 1964.
The first amendment states
clearly — “Congress shall
make no law respecting an
establishment of religion, or
prohibiting the free exercise
thereof . . It is now a fed
eral ruling that one cannot
pray in < schools apd public 1
buildings. This ' is certainly
making a law" “prohbiting the
free exercise thereof”.
The second amendment
states that . the right of
the pepple to keep and bear
arms pould not be infringed.”
The States have had regula
tions on weapons for quite a
few years but now the federal
government wants to have the
• riilht not to .let. the i>cQple
“keep and bear arms”. Why
do they want to keep tab on
the p e o p 1 e / s weapons?
Throughout our study and re
search we found that just be
fore Hitler started his world
campaign he had a law that
required every person who
owned a gun to report it to
the supreme government. He
then disarmed those people
and made them his slaves. Is
this what our leaders are try
ing to do to us?
The'sixth amendment states
that “In all criminal prosecu
tions the accused shall enjoy
the right to a speedy and pub
lic- trial, ...” Richard Speck
killed eight young women in
the summer of 1966. It is now
March of 1967 and the courts
have just begun to choose a
jury. What is speedy about
this? Is a year to be consider
ed speedy? It seems that it is.
The people of this natioty
have let these changes go
without much to say about
them. The people should open
their eyes and see what is hap
pening. It will soon be where
the people will have to get per
mits from thev government to
leave their homes. We must
not let the Federal government
rule us — we are supposed to
rule the Federal government.
This nation was created on
the basis that the people
would be the government.
When the people go to the
polls they should choose a
man who will do his best and
help keep the people’s rights.
They should elect a man who
will say as Patrick Henry
once said, “Give me liberty,
or give me death” and not
the new version which is
“Give me liberty, or give me
money.” v

DEAR SALLY
By SALLY SHAW
DEAR SALLY: Some of the
middle-aged women I know
are continually trying to act
ten to twenty years younger
thaa they are; and I think
their attempts to regain their
lost youth are silly and ab
surd. Why can’t they face up
to the facts, that the years
have taken their toll, and tha£
they should act accordingly?
What have you to say about
thisr^E; L.
DEAR E. L.j And just what
IS the proper tfehavior pattern
for each degree of age? I’m
with your friends on this.
While I don’t hold with mid
dle-aged women adopting' teen-
aged styles in dress or acting
“kittenish,’* still I don’t see
a thing in the world with their
holding on to youthful enthu
siasms and joys. This youth
ful outlook, along with the na
tural poise garnered over the
years, makes for charm, per
sonality, and popularity.
DEAR SALLY: I’ve had
several dates with a girl of
19 whom I like very much,
and she acts like she thinks
a lot of me, too. The big trou
ble is that I told her I was
20, and I’m really only 16.
I’d like very much to wipe
this little lie of mine off the
record by admiting my real
age, hut I’m afraid that when
she finds out how young I
am she’ll give me the gate.
What is your advice? EDDIE.
DEA REDDIE: Better that
gate than to be living under
false colors. Better, too, that
you date girls of your own
age for the present. A three-
Near spread during the teen-
years is much too much, espe
cially when the boy is on the
short end of it. And inciden
tally I cannot for the life of
me understand how a girl of
19 can possibly fail to know
the difference between a 16-
year-old boy and a 20-year-
old.

Around our shop we called her Old Fashioned Lil
'Cause she sent her printing to Columbia and Greenville,
Old Fash thought it was a pretty good bet
That out-of-town printers could beat our own press.
t •• - • ¥ ‘
So jye said, “Lil, honey, please get the word
That sending printing out-of-town is simply absurd.
We’ve bought the newest presses, Old Fashioned Lil,
And our prices now are just as 15w as Columbia and Greenville.
i . -
We’re not asking, Lil, for a very special break.
All we’re asking, is for just an even shake.
Our shop’s so efficient (and don’t you miss the bus!)
That pretty soon those cities will send THEIR work to US.”
i . . ; ‘ ' __
When Lil got our prices she yelped, “Fiddledeedee,”
/
From now on my mb^iey stays in Clinton, S. C.
I may be old fashioned, but Til never forget
That it’s cheaper at The Chronicle, you bet!
\
Seriously, folks, we now DO have the new machinery and the
volume which enable u& to quote competitive prices with ptiptm any*
where. So why not get your printing done here at home where you get
faster service and an opportunity to check proofs fee accuracy. Whew
_ v * /' i •
you do business with The Chronicle you support a growing local
which empfays local Clinton people.
