He stated that “Newberry Col lege has, in Billy Laval, as good a coach as any who ever lived in this part of the nation”. If the people of Newberry want a championship team, said Mr. Blatt, Coach Laval can give it to them; however, the necessary financial support must be fumwhed. He appealed strongly to supporters of the College team to contribute gen erously to the athletic fund in order that the “pulling out and blocking” which is their job, might be done as well as the pulling out and blocking of Laval’s well-trained athletes. Mr. Blatt’s address served as a perfect climax of the evening, and was re ceived with enthusiastic applause. The Kiwanis Blocking Trophy, es tablished by the local Kiwanis Club in order to give credit to the seldom seen efforts of the men from “down under”, was presented to Nick De- Prim, 200 pound Indian tackle from Youngstown, Ohio. The presentation was made by Kiwanis past president, D. W. A. Neville. This award fol lowed the presentation of beautiful watch charm awards to all members of the squads of both the college and high school teams. As the meeting began, the Invoca tion was offered by High School Sup- cipal P. K. Harmon. This was follow ed by a sumptuous turkey dinner ser ved by the ladies of the United Daughters of the Confederacy. At in tervals throughout the program, valuable prizes were presented to banqueters; these prizes were donat ed by the following stoies: Stokes FOR SALE—Eggs for hatching— Duck eggs—buff Orphington Chick en eggs—bantam eggs—Squabs for eating.

At the conclusion of the formal festivities, a very interesting movie was shown by Coach Rex En right. The movie depicted analyzing views of the outstanding plays of the year. These plays were photograph ed from actua’. games of some of the most important teams of the nation, and held the attention of the audience as thrill after thrill flashed across the screen. In spite of the fact that the affair lasted nearly three hours, those at tending were generous in their praise of the program and rated it as one of the most well-rounded and enjoy able banquet meetings ever present ed in “The City of Friendly .Folk”. The affair was sponsored by the Newberry chamber of commerce, the committee in charge being headed by Bill Smith and G. K. Dominick. Other members of the committee were: Chamber of Commerce President Ned Purcell, Vice President C. C. Hutto, Gordon Clarkson, Pete Coleman, Bill Turner, O. M. Cobb, Billy Lava», and C. of C. Secretary Ted Bremer. Regardless of ago, make or condition, wolf give you a LIBERAL ALLOW ANCE on your old watch!

CARSON HOLD OPEN HOUSE Dr. and Mrs. J. W. Carson delight fully entertained members of Unity, Kings’ Creek and Newberry Associate Reformed Presbyterian churches, of which Dr. Carson is pastor, and other friends at Open House Monday even ing. The host and hostess received guests in the drawing room. Mrs. Carson was lovely in a white taffeta evening gown. With it she wore a shoulder corsage of yellow roses and orange blossoms. Vases and bowls of pink gladioli and carnations were used effectively about the dining room. A yellow and green color scheme was accented with charming significance in the flower arrangements of jonquils and for- sythia, in the drawing room and din ing room. The lace covered table was centered with a crystal bowl of yellow roses and jonquils, and light ed by tall yellow candles in crystal holders. At one end of the table lime punch was served from a crystal bowl, with sandwiches, cookies, and individual lemon iced cakes and mints. Members of the congregations gra ciously assisted the host and hostess in entertaining about 200 guests who called during the evening. As a token and high esteem and love in which the couple is held, «shey received a generous pounding, a sil ver teapot, and other gifts in com memoration of their tenth wedding anniversary. Mrs. J. C. McDow of Lancaster, cousin of Mrs. Carson, and maid-of- honor at their -wedding, was present. ALTHOUGH THINGS ARE slightly on the decline during Lenten season, the College ‘N’ Orchestra is still “getting around’”. Tuesday afternoon the orchestra played at the College reception for Newberry high school seniors, held at Smeltzer Hall. Friday night they will play at Wofford, and Saturday will journey to Birmingham, Ala., on the first of six Beta Club conven tion dates. The others will run thru March and April, and will be over the southern states. In the meantime, the orchestra, under the able direc tion of Chris Kaufman, is playing for dances all over the state. IT’S NICE TO SEE Newberrians, or rather former Newberrians, back in town. So it was a pleasant sight to see Di. and Mrs. Lamoreux in town Wednesday afternoon.

THE NEWBERRY MUSIC club is working steadily each week, practicing each Tuesday night on the operetta which the] vill present in the spring. The title of the operetta is “Under The Star md Stripes”, and is, of course, patriotic. More will be told about it- in this column at a later date, so be watch ing for it. ABOUT THE CLEVEREST way we’ve seen of temporarily repairing an ai’^omobile was yit- nessed when a couple of cars had a slight smash-up in front of The Sun office Wednesday morning. A bump er on one of the cars was pulled loose. A nearby spectator took out his handkerchief, tied up one side of the bumper—the driver of the auto tied the other side of the bumper with his handkercihef, got into the car and drove off. Your reporter wonders how long it stayed thusly repaired. WE’D LIKE TO SEE more of the type of “selected shorts” at movie theatres such as was shown by a local theater Mon day and Tuesday. It was a techni color feature, showing the life of Sailors in the San Diego, Cal., Mar ine base, one of the three in the Unit ed States. The others are at Parris Island and Quantico, Va. A feature such as this is instructive, as well as entertaining, and it would be nice to have more like it—not only the mar ine bases, but air corps, and army camps as well.

The Spartanburg Herald quotes The State, Columbia, on the failure of the farms in South. Carolina to feed the families that tend them: More than 17,000 farm families in South Carolina grow no vegetables. More than 80,000 grow no wheat. More than 20,000 have no chickens. More than 48,000 have no cows. More than 14,000 grow no com. More than 24,000 have no hogs. Tflis constitutes an indictment of farm families in South Carolina. They should be feeding themselves and pro ducing something to a surplus for sale. They should cease spending their few hard earned dollars to buy staffs produced in other states. The state’s farm problem is the state’s problem, for the whole people of South Carolina are affected by this indifference to living-at-home. Farm ers should look to other sections only for those stuffs their own lands will not produce; they are not many. It is of vital importance to South Caro lina that its farm families should be self-sustaining. JOHN LUTHER LONG Funeral services for John Luther Long, infant son of Mr. and Mrs. Paul H. Long, who died Wednesday, were held Thursday afternoon at two o’clock at St. James Lutheran church conducted by the Rev. E. Bryan Keis- ler, Rev. M. L. Kester, and the Rev. J. V. Long.
