NEARLY EVERYBODY IN NEWBERRY SEES • THE SUM •(PRINTING) Ky^S >> C^naran/eed / /\ ^ • SOO'5 VOL. 11. NO. 17 NEWBERKV, SOUTH CAROLINA, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 10, 1948 $1:50 PER ANNUM BY THE WAY... By DORIS ARMFIELD Washington, Sept 2.—When I boarded the Silver Meteor in Columbia Saturday night a week ago. I wondered if Wash ington could possibly be any hotter than Columbia, or if it could be as hot as the radio commentators claimed. Mty first evidence that it was came as we crossed the Potomac early Sunday morning, about 6:10 a. m. (7:10 Washington time) and I saw a large number of cars at Hains Point. I remembered from past experience that Hains Point was the favorite cooling- off pplace of Washingtonians, so thought if they were out that early, the weather must be as bad as the reports told. I mentioned to a friend, who met me at the station, about seeing the cars at Haim- Point. “Why, they’ve been there all night,” was the reply. “It was so terribly hot no one could sleep at home, and many of them just spent the night at Hains Point.” So you see what I walked into when I left the cool shade trees of Gildercrest and came up here. It didn’t last long, though. Yesterday morning, when I awoke, shiv ering, the temperature had dropped to 52 during the night, and as I write this, the days have been cool and the nights cold . . . and I have a sore throat and feel one of the fam ous Wlashington coids coming on. As I boarded the train in Col umbia. I thought to myself, “Well, at least I’ll be away from politics for awhile.” I might have known better. I had no sooner arrived in Ar lington, where I will be living for the time I am here, than I was in the center of a heated discussion about, of all things, civil rights. This lasted for about three hours; I find my friends up here as rabidly con cerned with the civil rights rogram as anyone down South. was surprised to find my Landlady's father, who Is a Pennsylvanian, so violently op posed to the civil rights pro posals. However, I haven’t heard anyone up here yet say they will vote a Dixiecrat tic ket; all the talk is Dewey and die Republican ' party. As I sit here writing, I am trying to get accustomed again to the airplanes. The National Airport is just over the way from the place I live, and I believe every plane coming and going flies within ten feet of our rooftop. At least it sounds that way, and I expect a Con stellation to drop in my win dow any minute. Airplanes are an interesting sight in the right place. Hundreds of peo ple go out to the airport on Sunday afternoon just to watch the planes come and go—and they come and go with seldom more than a five minute inter mission. The commercial planes seem about evenly divided be tween four engine DC-4 s (C-54) and Constellations, al though there 'are still some two engine C-47’s on the com mercial lines. The Constella tion looks like a tremendous plane which could seat about 100 people, but actually I dont know what the capacity is— probably about 60. I have been promised that while I am here. (1) I will see a television broadcast, and (2) I will see broadcasts of some of the Mutual shows, which are carried over WKDK in New berry. I will tell you about the marvels of television as soon as I learn about them myself; also about how the people you listen to over the local station look in person.. Riding the bus from Wash ington to Arlington today, I closed my eyes and imagined I was in Newberry. The bus I ride on goes through George town, and Georgetown has brick streets, like the ones in Newberry before they were surfaced. It seemed like old times, bumping over the bricks. As yet, I haven’t run into any one from Newberry in the Cap ital City, but I’m sure to— don’t believe I’ve ever been here more than three weeks without seeing someone I know. Loses Life In Accident Sunday Miss Betty Mae Graham, 17, of the Pomaria section of the county was killed almost in stantly Sunday afternoon about six o’clock in an auto wreck which occurred on the Strother road, about 12 miles from the city.

The fac ulty for this session are Mrs. Osborn Hipp and Mrs. Isadora Ruff. By Bryan Collier WASHINGTON—Those who say the South is “solid Demo crat" just haven’t bothered to study election statistics. The facts are that only two Southern States were still “so lid” as recently as 1944, in that Republican votes were negli gible. The GOP polled only 7 per cent of the Mississippi vote in ’44, only 5 per cent of the South Carolina vote. But in every other “Dixie”. State in 1944, the Reppublican ticket polled 18 per cent or better of the total vote, and the percentages ranged upward to 30 per cent in North Caro lina, 39 per cent in Tennessee? and 40 per cent in Virginia. In the 18 per cent bracket were Ala. and Georgia. Tex as gave Governor Dewey 19 per cent even against Roose velt and the “don’t change commanders’’ theme. Louisi ana gave him 20 per cent. Throughout all eleven "South ern” States, Governor Dewey polled in 1944 26 per cent of the total vote! Better than one out of four Southerners were voting Re publican even then! “Bob” Wallace Seriously 111 The many friends in New berry of R. G. Wallace will be sorry to learn that he is ser iously ill in the Laurens Hos pital where he was admitted Saturday.
