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.

bors, president; Caroline Pin
son, vice-president; Laura Dix

cobs presiding as president.

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. This represents a
decrease of 306 from fiscal
year 1968.
