BY CLAIRE DUNCAN
For the past week we students
at CHS have been m the midst
of exams. Last Friday we had
the first halves of our English
exams and history exams. Mon
day we took the first halves of
our math exams and science ex
ams. The second halves of Eng
lish exams and history exams
were taken Tuesday, and the last
halves of math exams and science
exams were taken Wednesday.
On Thursday and Friday the first
and last halves of exams concern
ing foreign languages and com
mercial subjects will be given.
Although this schedule seems
somewhat stringent, after the
holidays majority of the students
will be relieved that they have
finished their exams.
All of the hoomrooms are col
lecting goods for their baskets
for the needy. On Dec. 19, these
baskets will be distributed to
needy families.
Now that the holiday season
has so quickly approached, the
halls of CHS are filled with love
ly, glittering decorations. As one
enters the front door of Clinton
High, he is greeted by a glit
tering Christmas tree under
which are many mysterious pack
ages. Several homerooms have
decorated their doors, and the of
fice assistants have attractively
adorned the office with snowmen
and a snowy “MerryChristmas,*
sprayed across the big window.
I certainly hope that Santa will
remember these industrious stu
dents who have used their talents
to bring Christmas cheer to Clin
ton High School.

Please finish raking your

Street Dept. Supt. Eddie Mc
Gee said he would like for his
crewmen to complete their leaves
collection work by the first of the
year. He said, “We would appre
ciate the cooperation of the citi
zens. We have other projects
which need attention and we’d like
to complete gathering leaves as
soon as possible.*

Ersldne Awards
James P. Sloan, of this city,
received an award Saturday
morning at the Erskine College
Alumni Association meeting in
recognition of 95 percent parti
cipation of the Clinton-Laurens
Chapter in the 1969 Erskine
College Living Endowment Cam
paign. Mr. Sloan had served as
chairman of the Laurens County
campaign.
The award, a sketch by Art
Professor Felix Bauer of the
main building on the men’s cam
pus, was one of 13 presented to
alumni chapters in recognition of
successful drives. The overall
campaign has resulted in pledges
totaling $161,418.
Mrs. Georgia Y. Young, chair
man of the Clinton campaign,
was presented a similar award
for her part in the 95 percent
participation of Clinton area a-
lumni.

Suddeth's Letter
(Cont from page 1)
tional 3/4 providing all of the
utility profits.
(9) The two year election
method of our mayor and coun-
cilmen should be change. The
mayor and councilmen should be
elected for four year terms with
the provision of a rotation
system. Thus the mayor and
three councilmen should be elect
ed at one election for four year
terms, then in two years the
additional three councilmen
should be elected for four year
terms. This rotation system
would provide the city with at
least three old members at all
times on city council.
Also the requirement of a coun
cilman living in a particular ward
should be changed. There should
be six council seats numbered
one through six. Any qualified
citizen of our city should be
able to run for any section of his
choice (one through six). This
would give the citizen of Clinton
a greater choice in men to hold
these council seats. Small wards
and large wards would have equal
representation. All six council-
men would be voted on by all city
voters. Each elected councilman
would certainly represent each
citizen of Clinton.
(10) The City of Clinton has
grown over the years and will
continue to grow. The city bud
get for the past several years
has run over the million dol
lar figure for each year. Plan
ning for all city growth, im
provements and policys must be
done years ahead along with daily
maintinance and operational dut
ies each day. Many additional
federal projects, federal aid,
state and highway projects and
etc. can be obtained by planning
ahead. All this takes time for the
mayor of Clinton. The mayor will
have to put more and more time
into the business of our city each
month if our city is to operate
and grow in the proper manor.
This elected official must be paid
for the time and work he puts
into this million dollar business.
A complete study should be made
at once to determine if a full
time city manager is needed to
provide proper operation and help
to our mayor in the operation of
our city or should the mayor be
required to spend more of his
time to provide this service.
A Vote Of Praise - The Great
er Clinton Planning Commission
has given the City of Clinton a
most honorable and valuable ser
vice since it was created ap
proximately three years ago. The
future of our City greatly depends
on the service of this Com
mission. Each citizen is proud
that the City Council has worked
with this group and hopes it
will continue to work hand in hand
with the Planning Commission.
Council should depend more each
year on the recommendations of
this Commission and should cmi-
tinue to ask them for reports
and studies on all city needs and
problems.
Through the combined efforts
of Clinton City Council, the
Greater Clinton Planning Com
mission and the Clinton Chamber
of Commerce our city will con
tinue to have orderly growth and
continue to be a well balanced
industrial and institutional city.
Each citizen will have many rea
sons to be proud of our City of
Clinton.
