r 4-A—THE CHRONICLE, Clinton, S. C.. Sept. 24, 1970 J i Clinton News BY NAN DDCON Clinton High has a new look this year. The school grounds are surrounded by a chain-link fence. The gym is also getting a new outfit. The gym floor is being reworked, and a fresh coat of paint is brightening up the whole gym. There won't be any leaky roofs because tar roofing will take care of that These are just some of the reasons we have to be proud of CHS. However, there is one very important reason to be proud of our school. In June, Clinton High was presented with a certi ficate for being a continously accredited high school for 25 years. Not many schools receive this honor. It’s almost time to elect a new Miss CHS. Girls have been nominated this week, and speeches will be made for each candidate in chapel Friday. Everyone has enjoyed the pep meetings each Friday. The cheerleaders look real sharp in their bright red and white uni forms, and the band adds a great deal of enthusiasm and rhythm. (That red mass you might see admist the crowd is that very select group which performs for your enjoyment each Friday night! These en tertainers have been putting on a good show, so there aren’t any complaints. LIBRARY CLUB : Many clubs are reorganizing ' for the new school year. The ■ Library Club met and elected ! officers. They are Cathy Na bors, president; Caroline Pin son, vice-president; Laura Dix on, secretary; Cathy Vaughan, treasurer; Mimi Braswell and Colette Floyd were elected Chaplain and reporter respec tively. FELLOWSHIP OF CHRETUN ATHLETES The FCA met with Hugh Ja cobs presiding as president. Rev. Jimmy Bankhead had the program. The Girls’ Athletic Club met and elected Dell Young presi dent. SS Aids Students w £ Over seven million young Americans age 18 to 22 return to classrooms this fall. Social Security benefit checks go with more than 500,000 of these stu dents, J. E. Gunter, Social Sec urity Field Representative in Greenwood, said. These 500,000 students re ceive cash social security pay ments totaling some $45 mil lion each month. They are the dependent children of workers who have retired, died, or be come severely disabled. Their student benefits continue until they turn 22 if they remain un married and in school full time. As a matter of fact, Mr. Gunter added, social security benefits paid to students add up to more than the scholarships at all the colleges and univer sities in the country. “Too often, many families look at social security as a program that provides money only for retirement. But, last year, more than a quarter bil lion dollars a month was paid in benefits to nearly four mil lion children—from pre schoolers to college seniors*. Blake Watts Gives PC Grid Trophy Blake L. Watts, Hickory, N. C., businessman and former Presbyterian College football star, is establishing a Rushing Trophy Award for annual presentation to PC’s leading runner, Presbyterian Coach Cally Gault announced today. Gault said the “Blake L. (Kilo) Watts Trophy* will be a- warded at the PC athletic ban quet held each spring, and the winners’ names will be inscrib ed upon a permanent plaque located in the gymnasium. Gault pointed out that Watts is encouraging Blue Hose ball carriers to break the record he established at PC in 1949. Run ning as a Split-T fullback that season, Blake Watts averaged 7.4 yards-per-carry in amass ing 856 total yards on 116 at tempts from scrimmage. The nine-game schedule that year included games against Clem- son, Citadel, Furman and David son.) This performance brought him mention for Little All- American honors as well as in clusion on the All-South Caro lina and All-American Pi Kappa Alpha teams. Watts also was the state 440-yard-dash campion in track, and was a campus leader as a member of Blue Key, presi dent of two classes and a re presentative on the student coun cil. The Bishopville, S. C., na tive received his BS degree from Presbyterian College in 1951. Watts has been situated in Hickory for a number of years as district sales manager with Investors Diversified Services, Inc., America’s largest invest ment company. In fiscal year 1969, there were 1,249 youngsters under age 16 found working illegally in agriculture under the laws administered by the Wage and Hour Division of the Labor De partment.
