Americans, and the number is
growing at a rate of 900 a
day.*
Older Americans Community
White House Forums will be
held throughout the nation to
give the growing ranks of sen
ior citizens the opportunity to
speak out on their basic needs.
Ratchford Boland, Chairman
of the Planning Committee for
Laurens County has announced
that a forum will be held at
Laurens County Health Depart
ment Building on September 29,
from 10:00 a.m. to 12:30.
■We urge as many middle-
aged and older South Carolin
ians as possible to come to
these forums and express their
ideas on their needs and how
they feel these needs can be
met,’ he stated.
Representatives of public
agencies, public offices,
churches, and other groups will
be '>n hand to hear what older
citizens have to say.

riginated in the Garden of
)den
Tickets for just one of the two
concerts will also be $2.00 a-
piece, so that the series tick
et represents a 50% saving.
The Trinidad Tripoli Steel
Band’s repertoire of music
ranges from classical to rock,
all performed on oil drums!
This fact has astounded audi
ences, not only for this reason,
but also because of the unbe
lievable fidelity of the drums,
and the great technical artis
try of the performers - whe
ther they are performing popu
lar, classical, or their native
calypso music. The calypso
numbers are, of course, in a
class by themselves, combined
with exciting dancing and chant
ing as only the natives from
Trinidad can do. At times the
consort of drums sounds ex
actly like a symphony orches
tra, imitating very precisely
the sounds of strings and wood
winds.
Trinidad Tripoli Steel Band
performed on «The Ed Sullivan
Show’ last April with Liber-
ace, and has accompanied Diane
Warwick, Liberace, and Donald
O’Connor on their concert
tours. They have performed
twice for Queen Elizabeth. In
1967, they toured the East
coast and played for six weeks
in Montreal at Expo.
As “Entertainment World’
phrased it, “The TrinidadTri-
poli Steel Band is the most
exciting attraction in the world
today.’ Don’t miss this event on
Thursday, September 24th.
The Greenville Symphony
Orchestra has been scheduled
for Monday evening, February
15th. They will perform Bee
thoven’s Ninth Symphony, or
Choral Symphony, the great
masterwork by this musical
genius. This may be the first
performance in Clinton. The
Orchestra will be joined by four
soloists and a chorus of more
than 125 voices, composed of
the Greenville Civic Chorale
and our own PresbyterianCol-
lege Choir. For many people
this may be a once-in-a-life
time opportunity to hear this
mooumentiTtOIT'
Mark your calendars now
