(2) Southern Bel Auto Tag Deadline Is Monday, Nov. 2 1-20 To Divert Some 1-26 Traffic Have you obtained your 1971 South Carolina vehicle license plantes? If you haven’t, your best bet is to go to the S. C. Highway Service Center near est you and get your tags over the counter immediately. “The sooner the better,* Is the advice of Highway Depart ment officials. Judging by past experience, lines will soon be forming at the various vehicle license offices and wiU become increasingly longer for the re mainder of the 1970 license year—which has less than three weeks to go. Everyday you wait means that your chances of being delayed by a line be comes greater. Monday, November 2, is the date that the Highway Patrol will begin making cases a- gainst vehicle owners with ex pired licenses since November 1, the date enforcement would normally begin, falls on Sunday this year. Through October 14, the Highway Department had li censed some 761,000 vehicles for the new license year. The concern of Highway Officials lies in the fact that there are about 1,350,000 vehicles now registered in South Carolina and each must normally be licensed before the October 31 expiration date. Officials said the demand for plates will be increasing daily from now on. They explained that the normal time for process ing license renewals by mail is such that any application re ceived after October 15 cannot be assured of delivery prior to the October 31 expiration date. * * * Promoted Marine Pfc.

Opening to traffic of the 50- mile gap in Interstate 20 be tween Columbia and North Au gusta will very likely be realized by January 1, and about half of the stretch is tenta tively set for opening earlier, the South Carolina Highway De partment announced. The incomplete section is be tween S. C. Route 6 at Red Bank in Lexington County and U. S. 25 just east of North Augusta. Work is fartherest along between Red Bank and U. S. 1 at Aiken and tentative plans are to open this stretch by December 1. When the S. C. 6 - U. S. 25 gap is closed, 1-20 will be open all the way from U. S. 601 southwest ofCamden across the Savannah river at North Augusta to Thompson, Georgia. Presently, a large portion of the traffic flowing between Co lumbia and Atlanta is using Interstate Route 26, U. S. 276 and Interstate 85, in other words, goingby Clinton, Green ville and Commerce, Georgia. This route Is about 40 miles longer than the new b ter state 20 route will be when com pleted. However, when Inter state 20 is completed between Columbia and Augusta, there will still be about 45 miles of the freeway incomplete and un opened in Georgia, this being between Thompson, Georgia and Madison, Georgia. * * * 4-H Paints Its Signs In keeping with the 4-H club’s clean-up, fix-up, and advertis ing program in the county, the County Extension Staff, with the cooperation of 4-H club mem bers, for the past two weeks has been busy posting signs, es tablishing displays and working on signs.
