C., hiking on Graybeard mountain, five miles away, on Wednesday rfftemoon of last week when early twi light, caused by clouds and fog, obscured the view. The girl, led by a senior, an ex perienced hiker, lost their way, wondering 11 miles, and were compelled to spend the night on the mountain top. A cold drizzle of rain and the lack of wraps added to the dis comfort of the frightened girls. They found shelter under tree branches, where they huddled together, Indian fashion, all night and tried to keen warm with the few wraps available. They had no matches. The girls took turns walking around the circle and when dawn finally came the? started down the mountain and were met by a searching party led by Sheriff Laurence Brown.

Roller and la Governor Thurmond is expect ed to appoint commissioners to make a survey of the district, de termine how much of it would be eligible for annexation in the event of a favorrfble vote, arrange for an election, etc. Recommended to the governor for appointment as commission ers are W. A. Johnson and R. D. Pate, both of whom live within the area and both of whom are in favor of the annexation, and Gordon S. Pate and L. E. Hill, both of whom live in Lee county and are opposed to the annexa tion. An area six to 12 square miles is involved, depending on the con stitutional limitations. Under state law a county cannot contain less than 400 square miles and the county line must be at least eight miles from the court house in all directions. It may be that it will be im possible to annex the whole school district because of the constitu tional limitations but some of it could be annexed without violat ing these limitations. All of this will be decided by the commissioners who will be empowered to have the necessary surveys made, etc. Reasons assigned by residents of the area for desiring annexation to Kershaw county are that moat of them do their banking and iding in Camden and that it iturally would be more conven- settiersfpin* _ chain the chapter baa 1 nemmres ctonatea oy at Vew Orleans; 1?
