Finally Mrs. Gaines reaffirmed the purposes of the Music Club by listing all of the activities supported by the National Federation of Music Clubs. eorgetown Weekend BY GENIE WILDER The Clinton High Red Devils opened their football season last weekend while many Clinton folks closed thei| summer season. Around 400 Clinton fans journeyed to Georgetown, many of them taking the opportunity to enjoy the sun and surf on the South Carolina strands.

Saturday and Sunday were clear. At halftime, the Clinton High band drew a warm ovation for their performance.

Dr. and Mrs. Macdonald were there withtheir daughter and son- in-law, Mr. and Mrs. L. H. Lee, to see the Lees’ son, Lawrence, in action.

Bob organized a chartered bus trip for fans and there were so many en thusiastic fans clamoring for tickets that he inadvertently sold his own seat on the bus. So he drove down and it was a par ticularly gratifying trip for him and his family. Son Bob Jr. ran 75 yards for Clinton’s first touch down and played well all night. Dr. Robert Grube was on the sidelines assisting quarterback Buzzy Teddards, who had injured his leg, when Grube’s son, Bob, directed Clinton to its second touchdown. Mr. and Mrs. Mabe McCrary were cheering in the stands when son, Mac, scored two touchdowns. Although Clinton lost the bat tle (33-19), the fans and players haven’t lost their enthusiasm and all look forward to an exciting season.
