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.
All underclassmen will re
ceive their annuals on Tues
day, May 9. Too bad about
that!
Helping Steve Grady and
Jan King, CHS’s new presi

lead Clinton High next year

'Swamp Fox'
Author Lauds
S. 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.”

TIMELY TIPS
By The County end Heme
Agents
- CONGRATULATION: Our
4-H Land Judging Team is in
Oklahoma City, Oklahoma,
this week competing in the
National Land Judging Con
test. Those making the trip
are Ronald Avinger, Larry
Cockerel, Mike Wickham, and
H. L. Eason, Coach. Dr. L. ft.
Allen, Extension Agronomist,
will accompany the team al
so.
LEFT OVER TRIMMINGS:
Keep left - over trimmings
such as bias tape, rickrack,
and seam binding in a clear
plastic bag. Then you can see
what’s inside without remov
ing everything.
REDUCING DIET: Plan
your reducing diet on the
basis of one-third calories
less than your maintenance
requirements.
RECOMMENDED VARIE
TIES: Recommended soybean
varieties are Bragg and Coker
rfampton 266. The highest
yields have been from these
varieties.
PRESSING PLASTICS:
When pressing plastic ma
terial of any kind, use a piece
of muslin on top of it. The
