Bill Reasonover
At Clemson College
Named To Membership In Ex-
cluaiwe Ranks Of The
Tiger Brotherhood
William S. Reasonover, Ag. Ec.,
junior at Clemson college and a son
of Mr. and Mrs. Marvin Reasonover
of this citj has been one of twelve
Clemson students to be selected to
membership in the Tiger Brother
hood, Clemson *s own lionorary lead
ership and service fraternity.
Students of the upper three classes
are eligible and selection is based on
character, service and scholarship.
« The Tiger Brotherhood was' organ
ised in 1928 largely through the ef
forts of Professor J. L. Marshall of
the etigineering department for the
purpose of having and maintaining
a high standard of ethics and morals
in the corps. Through the efforts of
this organization many worthwhile
projects have l^n accomplished, the
guest room being one of these pro
ducts.
Reasonover is business manager of
Cleipson Tiger, official school paper,
president of the lanlor,‘‘Y’’ council,
is former president of the Wesley
Foundation, State Treasurer of the
''YMCA", State secretary of the 19th
S. C. Methodist student -conference
and a member of the “Y" cabinet.
Ho is a graduate of the Camden
high school and was active la all
school affairs here.
A prominent member of Camden’s
winter colony, who has always had
the best interests of Camden at heart
and whose loyalty to his South ^r-
olina abode supersedes "that of his
northern residence was in sanc
tum of the news editor last Friday.
It was a sort of drop-in call and
the subject of the conversation was
as one may surmise—Camden.
This gentlman had such a remark
able train of ideas that we persuaded
him, to permit us to take notes, pre
pare an interview, submit it for his
approval. We think that every citi-
sen. of Camden should study what
our very g^ friend had to say. "
In the first place he pointed out
that politics, an area of land and a
icoverning group do not make for a
town. And by town he meant a mu-
^^nicipality like Camden. He stressed
^’^Tthat s town, a r^l town, a town that
aspires to future greatness, is an at
mosphere, an atmosphere that is cre
ated,, by its inhabitants, the people
who "call it home. ^
“Camden is a good town, else I
wouldn’t have established ‘my winter
tome here’’ he said. “And .Camden
can be made better kg a closer co
operation of all interested in' her fu
ture, ’ ^
“^One of the great handicaps we are
experiencing now is the shortage of
tomes and the lack of accommada-
tionss for people who wish to spend
months with us during the winter
months. We also have a shortage of
tlaces for business and industry. We
taye gone beyond our satunatipn
Mint and have reached a stalemate
n this phase of our life.
“What is BO distressing to me is the
act that nobody seems to be doing
an}rthing to relieve this congestion.
The first thin||' we should do just as
soon as conditions permit is to start
a program for more buildings to ease
he present situation and to add more
tomes aud buildings for others who
are anxiou« and eager to come and
ive amongst us. That is the atmos
phere that must be fostered.
“Let me put it this way. A relative
or a close friend writes to you and
i^orms you he or she is coming to
visit you. Your home is filled and you
lave to write and tell him you are
sorry but there is no room for him.
^an you imagine how he is going to
: 'eel. Camden right noW ii in that sit
uation, only on a much larger’scale.
“Are we selfish? Or are we ready
(o do something that will insure the
:'uture progress of Camden? Camden
needs more homes. Camden needs an
adequate hotel.’’
