Long Favors Lowering Voting Age BY JIMMY BOYLSTON Legislative Correspondent Sen. John D. Long favors low ering the voting age to 18 in South Carolina. “lam in favor of extending the right to vote to 18-year-olds pro vided we attach the liabilities and responsibilities that are now ac corded a person upon reach ing 21,” Sen. Long said last week. These rights a4d responsibili ties would include allowing 18- year-olds the /ight to enter into legally binding contracts and would make an 18-year-old sub ject to law suits. Long said he favors extending the responsibilities as well as the rights. The House passed by a 90 to 17 vote last week a bill which would allow 18-year-olds to vote provided it is approved by the vot ers in the November general election. The House bill also ex tends legal rights fully to 18 year olds. The measure was expected to come before the Senate early this week. Reps. Paul Culbertson and Da vid Taylor, both of Laurens Coun ty, were among those who voted against the lowering of the voting age to 18. Both Culbertson and Taylor noted that lowering the voting age to 18 would make 18-year-olds liable for jury duty. Rep. Taylor said he felt jury duty would be disruptive to a student’s school activity. On April 28th, Presbyterian College is hosting the P. C. Jun ior Fellows and their guidance counselors for a program of orientation and entertainment. The P.C. Junior Fellows from Bell Street High are Henry Motes and Rene Knighton. This is a dis tinct honor, because this award is based on the outstanding high school academic achievements during the 2 1/2 years in high school. This is to recognize classroom accomplishments and to encourage the continued pur suit of exceUence. Youth Rally A youth rally will be held at the Fire Baptize Holiness Church on Beauregard St. on Sunday, April 26 beginning at 2:30 p.m. The public is invited to come hear the speakers and participate in the singing. Only Five Only five planets were known to ancient astrono mers — Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn No one knew that the earth was a planet until the early 1500s, when Copernicus showed that the sun was the center of the solar system and that the earth revolved around it. Juvenile Quarters Discussed The speaker at the April 16th meeting of Mountville Grange was Calvin Bridges, Civil andFamily Court Judge of Laurens County. This Court was organized in 1951 and Robert L. Gray was ap pointed as the first Judge and he served for 18 years. At that time it was known as the Laurens County Domestic Court. In June 1969 Calvin Bridges was appointedJudge and the Court was renamed the Civil and Fami ly Court of Laurens County. Ci vil cases involving up to $20,- 000 are heard before this Court, which also has jurisdiction over divorce, child custody, adoption and juvenile delinquency. Provision was made to have the court held in the County Court House for the first time. Last June the Court was given the services of two probation of ficers and it also works closely with the Dept, of Public Wel fare. Since last June the number of cases heard has more than doub led due in part to all of the non support cases being heard in this Court instead of the Criminal Court. Many times when cases were being tried in the Criminal Court the women had to wait for almost three months before they were awarded support because the Court was not in session, but with the Family Court the cases are often heard the same week as the complaint. No one is turned away because they cannot afford to hire a Lawyer. At the present time there is no separate place for juvenile of fenders and they must be placed in the same cell as hardened criminals. Cases involving ju veniles are closed to the public. Application has been made for a Federal grant to provide funds for mobile type dormitories f< r juveniles with cottages for ttie caretakers on property of the County Home. It is the hope of the C unty Delegation and Judge Calvin Bridges that the dormitories will be the solution of the problem f providing a suitable place for juvenile delinquents WBETTER Qua/M fa Service for Tour JbocfDf New!
