By The Way - - - Coffee drinking seems to have become a habit with the business men and women of Newberry . . . you can go in any place where coffee is serv ed between nine and eleven in the morning, and chances are the place will have a capacity crowd of coffee drinkers. Some thing new has been added in Newberry to accommodate the coffee lovers—and lovers of good food too, so I hear. It’s The Coffee Shop which opened Monday on Thompson street, just behind the Carolina Rem nant store on Main street. Eli zabeth B. Cole is manager of the little shop and is now being assisted by Jo Ann Goggans and a first class cook. I went over there Monday to look over the place, and was much pleased with what I saw. Everything was clean, new and shiny, and the coffee was plenty strong. There are three large booths, and a number of counter seats. The shop is all newly painted in brown, red and white . . . and there is a “juke box” in case you like music with your coffee. As you will see by an announce ment elsewhere in The Sun, Eli zabeth will also serve break fast, dinner and supper . . . and you can get short orders mo; t anytime you want them. P jrley. Bedenbaugh of near Pro sperity was in the office the other d a y- He was tellin S me about his year as a patient at the veterans hospital in Colum- bia. I mention this for two reasons: first, to report that Mr. Bedenbaugh is getting along nicely, although^ he still has some trouble with a leg he in- jured in a fall some years sgo; seconci, because he had many nice things to say about the veterans hospital. I have heard so many complaints against VA hospitals, that I think it only fair to repeat a good report— and everything Mr. B. had to say about his treatment at the hospital was good. Some weeks ago there was a mention in this paper that the Exchange Club would have a donkey basketball game at Newberry College in February. I was talking with one o$ the Exchange club members, and the conversation went some thing like this: "Are you going to be on the Exchange club team?” “Yes.” “Have you ever been on a donkey?” “No.” , L . “Have you ever played bask etball?” “No.” That game may not do any thing for the dignity of the Exchange club, but it promises Beck Is Principal Junior Hi School R. E. “Ed” Beck has been ap pointed principal of Newberry Junior high school to replace B. L. Frick, who recently resigned to accept a position with the Jefferson Standard Life In surance company at Greenwood. Mr. Beck was graduated from Newberry College in 1936. He was teacher and coach at Wood ruff after his graduation, then went to Albany, Ga., as a mem ber of- the school faculty. He served three years in the Navy during the war and returned to Albany for a short time. He subsequently entered business in Asheville, N. C., where he has been until he ac cepted the position at junior high school. He will begin his new work Monday, January 26. Mr. Beck is married to the former Miss Frances Jones, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Frank K. Jones of Newberry. They have one child. Godfrey Is Held On Ravish Charge William N. Godfrey, age 24, of Whitmire is being held in the county jail where he was brought Monday afternoon on a charge of assault with attempt to ravish. Godfrey is charged with at tempting to ravish a six year old girl at the home of his sis ter in Whitmire. The child’s 16 year old sister, who lives next door, heard her screams and summoned help. According to her report, when she reached the house, some of the child’s underclothes had been removed and Godfrey was trying to .keep her from screaming, by holding his hand over her mouth. God/- frey, who was arrested by Sher iff Ben Dawkins and Deputy Sheriff J. C. Neel, denies the charge. State Constable Elmore, Wil son and Moss of Whitmire were investigating the case when the Newberry sheriff and deputy arrived on the scene.
