Atlantic City.—The new Miss Am
erica, Rosemary La Planche of Los
Angeles, doesn’t smoke and doesn’t
drink, but she likes her food.
She “just loves” thick medium-
cooked steaks with mashed potatoes,
and she craves to be a motion picture
actress on the order of Rosiland
Russell.
The nation’s new bathing beauty
queen, crowned “Miss America,
1941” at the climax of Atlantic
City’s annual beauty contest Sunday
night, was eating a breakfast of
waffles, bacon and milk in her hotel
room when interviewed today.
“I dlidn’t get to bed until 5:30 this
morning on account of posing for
newsreels and going to parties,” she
confided, “—and gee, did you ever see
such big mosquitoes? They’ve been
eating me alive.”
Miss La Planche said for five years
it had been her ambition to be a
movie actress and that she had fig
ured out a couple of years ago the
best way to catapult herself into
filmdom was to win the Miss Ameri
ca crown. She tried it last year and
was awarded second prize.
“I worked awfully hard to get
back here this year for a second try.”
she said. “It meant studying and
practicising night and day. And if I
hadn’t won the title here this year
I was determined to come back again
next year.”
The new queen ate a heavy meal
of least beef, mashed potatoes, peas,
corn* milk and raspberry sherbert be
fore making her final appearances be
fore the judges. She always eats
like that, she says, but never exceeds
120 pounds and 24-inch waist meas
ure. She also likes to cook spaghet
ti.
Miss La Planche said she doesn’t
have a regular boy friend and
doesn't want one—“a career comes
first with me; I can get married
later.” She did make clear, howev
er, that her favorite men are the
“blonde, athletic type who like to
swim, play tennis or go horseback
riding.”
She left the University of South
ern California six months ago, she
said, after two years of majoring in
dramatics.
Impact of Army Maneuvers Will Be
Felt In Newberry
Newberry should look like a real
“army town” when maneuvers are be
gun in October and November. This
information comes to "us as a result
of an investigation made recently by
a representative of the U. S. O.
Many thousand® of soldiers will be
stationed in the vicinity of Winnsboro
and Chester during the maneuvers
this fall. It will be impossible for
any one town to accommodate so
many men during week-ends or re
creational periods. Accordingly,
the army has requested the United
Service Organizations to arrange for
distributing the men proportionately
among the various small towns of
this section.
Mr. David Danzig, director of the
U. S. O. centers in Columbia was
sent to Newberry last week to get
the “lay of the land” here. He called
at the Chamber of Commerce offices
for the purpose of a conference con
cerning statistics of the town in re
gard to recreational and entertain
ment facilities, housing facilities,
etc. He was also taken on a tour of
the town by Defense Chairman, Ted
W. Bremer, following his request to
see various spots. He was then re
quested to contact Mrs. Herman
Wright, Chairman of the Women’s
Division of the County Council for
National Defense, this group having
handled all recreational activities for
soldiers here. Mr. Danzig stated that
he or another USO representative
would return to Newberry in the near
future to consult with the ladies con
cerning actual recreational activities.
A statement was made by Mr. Dan.
zig to the effect that during the man
euver period Newberrians may see
as many as three or four thousand
soldiers in the City of Friendly
Folks at one time. The men will ac
tually be sent to various towns so
that congestion will be avoided. Plans
are now being made for a large con
tingent to come to Newberry during
October and November, the months
scheduled for the maneuvers.

Industry Solid In
Support of Progrm
Finance Drive Tribute To Industry,
Says Council Leader
Memphis, Tenm.—Successful cul
mination of the National Cotton
Council’s 1941 nickel-a-bale promotion
campaign assures the cotton con
sumption program of heightened
striking power during the year
ahead, President Oscar Johnston of
the Council said today.
The finance plan was declared In
effect from the Carolinas to Califor
nia when directors of the American
Cotton Shipper Association and the
American Cotton Manufacturers As
sociation reviewed and approved
contracts submitted by the Council
from firms handling more than ninety
percent of the 1940 crop.
Successful conclusion of the cam
paign was declared by Mr. Johnston
to be a tribute in itself to the new
unity which has developed within
the raw cotton industry since the
organization of the Council three
years ago.
“The fact that cotton will have the
greatest promotional fund in its his
tory is due to the untiring coopera
tion of producers, ginners, ware
housemen, merchants, cotton oil
mills and cotton spinners.” Mr. John
ston said. “With this new war chest
we shall be able to carry out a more
powerful campaign to maintain cot
ton’s position of leadership in estab
lished markets and to find new out
lets for our lint and seed.”
Mr. Johnston said that the indus
try’s program for 1942 includes in
tensification of current 'advertising
and promotional activity, continua
tion of the Council's scientific re
search program, renewed activity
looking towalrdi increased foreign
trade, and continuation of the fight
on tade barriers and discriminatory
legislation against cotton and cotton
seed products.
“Looking ahead to the return of
normal times, the cotton industry is
fully aware that any relaxation of
efforts to hold cotton consumption
at the present high levels would be
exceedingly dangerous, if not fatal,”
the Council president declared. "For
this reason every phase of the indus
try is contributing its share toward
this renewed and expanded cam
paign.”
For the remainder of the finance
campaign, activity will be devoted
principally to winding up the cotton
seed contracts calling for three cents
per ton on seed, and to signing up
the small minority of merchants and
mills included in the remaining ten
percent of the handlers of lint. It ia
anticipated that virtually every
handler of seed and lint will be par
ticipating in the program by early
in September.

MT. BETHEL GARMANY SCHOOL
OPENED MONDAY
The Mt. Bethel Germany school
opened Monday morning, September
8, for the 1941-42 session.
The teachers elected for the forth
coming year are: Mrs. Furman Rea-
gin, principal. Mrs. Frank Mills will
teach the Primary department.
Trustees of the school are B. B.
Leightzsey, chairman, George Ruff,
secretary and Luther Folk.
John William Miller, 86, died at
the Lowman home Sunday afternoon
after a long illness.
Funeral service® were held Tues
day afternoon at 4 o’clock (DST) at
Mayer Memorial Lutheran church
with the Rev. V. L. Fulmer in charge,
assisted by the Rev. E. 3. Keisler and
the Rev. M. M. Brooks. Interment was
in Rosemont cemetery.
Surviving are four sons: W. Lee
Miller. Miami, Fla.; R. H. Miller,
Chester; Frank E. Miller and B. Wal
ter Miller, both of Newberry; six
daughters, Miss Belle Miller, Mrs. I.
S. Davis, Mrs. A. O. Willingham, all
of Newberry; Mrs. L. C. Merchant,
Sr., and Mrs. L. E. Kempson, both of
Columbia; Mrs. W. G. McCord' of Ab
beville; one sister, Mrs. Ellen Eargle
of Little Mountain, 46 grandchildren
and 25 great grandchildren.
other simple but necessary farm de
vice for producing quality hogs are
shown.
Two three year old sap pine fence
posts—one perfectly sound and the
other a rotten shell—attract a lot of
attention. The good one was treated
with zinc chloride 3 year® ago and
put in the ground along with the un
treated one. it is not known how
long the treated one will last, as nons
of them have ever rotted yet, while
the untreated ones In the tests have
rotted and fallen down.
A good type Hereford bull is
shown, a common cow with calf from
such a bull, and a good locally grown
feeder steer. "This calf by a good
Hereford bull on this common cow is
worth more than the cow now,” states
J. R. Hawkins, extension beef spe
cialist, “and this illustrates how fkst
we can improve a common herd by
the use of good bulls. Farmers in
many sections of the State are doing
just this, with a good bull they are
building up a grade herdl, and do not
have so much invested in their cattle.”
A farm milk cooling box greets
the eye as we enter the next car. Milk
put in it the day before during this
hot weather was still sweet. Milk and
its products constitute at least 20
per cent of the human diet, and many
practical hints and devices are shown
that will make it mean more on the
average farm. A good average cow
is in the next stall. She was from
a fairly good cow by an excellent
bull. She has produced 2,700 pounds
(over 300 gallons) more milk and 100
pounds more butter in 10 months
than her mother did, and her sister
have done likewise. Thus we see il
lustrated very practically the value
of a good bull. The first generation
from him showed at least 30 per cent
improvement.
The poultry exhibit shows 20 good
hens that ten years of farm records
over the state gave an average re
turn per year equal to one heavy bale
of cotton and the seed, plus over ten
dollars. Good breeding, with proper
feeding and housing are listed as es
sentials for success with poultry. All
of these points are illustrated with
chart, model, and product.
A complete gravity fed syrup plant
is shown. The material to put in sy
rup to prevent its turning to sugar
and permit its cooking enough to
avoid souring is there. The cost is
neglegihle. The material used in
sorghum to prevent sugaring is dias-
talic malt syrup, and in sugar cane
syrup is invertase. The restoration
of the old syrup pitcher is advised as
a means of getting syrup back prop
erly in the diet, as it contains a lot
of iron* calcium, and vitamines of the
B complex, all of which are seriously
lacking in the average diet according
to school and 1 army records.
