Clinton, S. C„ Thursday, April 27, 1967 * »i! i i THE CLINTON CHRONICLE Highlights From Clinton High By KAYRAN COX Can you believe it’s April 27? We can, especially we Seniors. We are in our last lap of high school days, and these days are flying by. Graduation is only one month and one day away. It sounds almost unbelievable. Tnie, we’re all bursting forth with exuberance over our plaps for the future, yet even we realize that our graduation from Clinton High contains a ^narked degree of sadness. On commencement night, May 28, Henry Simmons has been selected to lead the prayer. Kay ran Cox, valedic torian; Ronnie Johnson, salu- tatorian; and Billy Byars, Senior Claims President, will be the speakers of the night. ♦ A second\important day for Seniors is even closer — Awards Day. May 19 is the appointed date on which Ka ren Surratt will present the Class Poem, and Debbie Pra ter will give the Class His tory. Lucille McSween will lead the graduating class and their family and friends in prayer. Last, but certainly not least, is the Annual Party on Mon day night,. May 8. All Sen iors will Se invited to atten^ the party at seven-thirty on Monday night. We are all auite excited about our an nual, for the “Clintonian” staff has worked long and hard on the 1967 yearbook.

C.. and South Anderson-^’Let’s not 1&ep South Carolina’s historical and cultural heritage a secret any longer,” author Noel Ger- son urged members of the Anderson County Historical Society at th e spring banquet at the Anderson Country Club. He spoke of Gen. Francis Marion, subject of his latest historical novel, “The Swamp Fox.” Gerson, born in Chicago and now living in New Lon don, Conn., said he was asked frequently why he had writ ten so much about the South. “Here in South Carolina you have produced more heroes than any other state; you have had more Congressional Med als of Honor winners than any other state; you have had a greater proportion, of volun teers in every war than any other state,” he said. “The entire American appoach to culture was formed right here in South Carolina. Charleston had the first theater and was having concerts and lectures when Boston and Philodelphia were rough villages and New York was a mudhole. “You all know these things and take them for ‘granted. But there has been more than enough abuse today of southerners. It’s time for you to do a little horn-blowing.” Francis Marion invented guerrilla warfare, Gerson said, and throughout the world where it has been used suc cessfully, it is based on Marion’s tactics. Even with “Lighthorse Harry” Lee’s Bri gade added, Gerson, said, it is doubtftil if there were ever more than 750 men available. But they kept more than 4,500 of the finest British profes sionals tied down for more than 18 months in a “cam paign of deliberate terror.” Greenwood Mills Promotes Two Officers Greenwood — A. L. Strawn has been promoted to vice- president of manufacturing for Greenwood Mills, succeed ing Robert A. Liner, who be comes vice-president of op erations for the 16-plant tex tile firm based here.

Strawn, a native of Union, wood Mills since 1927 and had served as assistant vice pres ident of manufacturing since 1964. has been employed by Green- Liner became vice-president of manufacturing in 1962.
