GATHERING CLOTHES—Marvin Whitmire, left,
and Jesse Abercrombie sort out clothes which have
been donated to the ‘Christianity In Action’ pro
gram.
On last Tuesday, Bell Street
High welcomed two practice
teachers, Miss Carolyn Reed and
Miss Mace Boyd, both from Allen
University in Columbia. Miss
Reed is doing her practice teach
ing in the Physical Ed Depart
ment. Miss Boyd is in Business
Education.
All of the students extended
a hardy welcome to the new
comers and certainly hope they
will enjoy their stay in Clinton.
In an earlier column, I
mentioned the fact that the French
classes were planning to attend
other presentations such as the
one presented at P.C. entitled
“Tartuffe,” which was thorough
ly enjoyed by everyone. Now they
are planning a trip to Columbia
to see another French play en
titled “Caligula,” which wall be
presented by a French cast from
Paris, France. Everyone is look
ing forward to seeing the play,

“Christianity In Action” will be
the theme of a new program be
ing inaugurated this month in
Clinton. The program, accord
ing to Rev. Robert Gilliam, lo
cal independent minister, is aim
ed at providing assistance for low
income and indigent families in
the Clinton area.
“We found during Christmas
time,” said Rev. Gilliam, “that
there are many families in the
area who live in conditions and
under circumstances far below
standard. What we would hope
to do is provide a resource which
would be helpful to local church
es and social agencies in their
efforts to alleviate these condi
tions.”
Already in action, volunteers
have been gathering used cloth
ing and other items during the
past three weeks. They are re
questing all types of discards
such as clothing, dishes, pots
and pans, furnitures, etc. Any
thing that can be used in the
home.
“We put the cart before the
horse, so to speak", Rev. Gilliam
continued. “We began gather
ing articles and we have no build
ing out of which to operate. I am
using my house at present, but
as the program develops, we will
need a place where we can set
up operations.”
Born at Lydia Mill in 1937,
Mr. Gilliam attended Clinton High
School before entering the United
States Air Force in 1954. After
four years and twice around the
globe with Strategic Air Com
mand, Mr. Gilliam entered The
University of Texas majoring m
Business Administration. He
joined The Salvation Army and
was ordained in 1959. He lists
the past 10 years with the Sal
vation Army as his qualification
for spearheading the “Christian
ity In Action" program.
“We envision," Rev. Gilliam
added, “the development of a pro
gram much needed in our city.
We ask for citizen support for
the program with full confidence
that as Clintonians respond we
can establish the kind of pro
gram of which you can be proud
and with which you will be a part. ”
Reliable Batteries
In 1901, the New York Electric
Vehicle Transportation Company
had 100 nickel iron batteries in
service, each averaging 1,000
miles of travel per month. Today,
the same type of battery is used
in a variety of actual and experi
mental electric car applications.
after doing a little research on
its history.
The long awaited day came to
an inconvenient time as the
ground became covered with snow
on last Friday, when the game
against Twin City from Bates-
burg was scheduled to be play
ed. The games were cancelled
because of the snow. Well, you
can’t win them all, or can you?
The girls’ basketball team has
done a pretty good job of con
tradicting the statement. They
are still undefeated and are plan
ning to retain their reputation.
The game last Tuesday resulted
a victory for the girls with a
score of 44-23 against Wright
High of Abbeville.
The boys’ basketball team did
not do as well as expected af
ter losing with a score of 78-
62 against Wright; but never-
the-less they will keep hanging
in there because the boys have
soul and the basketball is getting
too old.
The faculty and student body
of Bell Street would like to take
this time to extend their deep
est sympathy to Mrsr M. B. Hud
son in tlie death of her brother,
Mr. Woodrow Wilson from Los
Angeles, Calif.
