ms FRIDAY, NOVEMBER ?, 1952 igQmfZi Says Highway Department Looks Out For Its Cronies At Stadium ■ HE?Jr, p/*>, (From column, “No Fooling From the Editor," The Fort Mill Times, ft issue of October 16, 1952:) Apparently the South Carolina Highway patrol still believes in the caste system, especially in connection with the handling and parking of cars at the University of South Carolina football games. Saturday, my wife, some frfends and I went down to the Duke- Carolina game. As we approached the stadium we saw a patrolman, Lionel Harvin, I believe his. name is, standing at a point immediate ly in the rear of the Carolina side of the stadium. I noted that he was waving most of the cars on by his point, but at intervals he would permit a car to turn off and park in the lot near the stadi um. I thought it a bit unusual that some few cars would be ac corded this special privilege while others were shunted to a distant field to park. As I approached the lot I noticed that all the cars in the select spot had exceedingly low license numbers. I also saw that there were still several va cant spaces in the area. As I passed the patrolman, I asked, "Can I park in here?” He replied: "Filled up, Cap*" Well I have 20- 20 vision and I could see plainly that this statement was not true. It so happened that the car be hind us had a low license num ber, something below a hundred, so I wacched to see what course of action the patrolman would take. Without hesitation, he wav ed the low-numbered car into the convenient area. I was forced to park more than half-a-mile from the stadium. I knew very well what was taking place. The Highway de partment reserves its low numbers for politicians. They are the high ly privileged class. Any politician, no matter how small-time he is, is given preference over a substan tial, non-political citizen. Thou sands of South Carolinians who at tended Carolina games, and other thousands who do not, resent this discriminatory action by the High way patrol. To those who might say this is a case of sour grapes, I might add that this is untrue. I have sever al political connections through which I could get one of these "prized” low numbers. Like most other citizens, I am not in terested. I believe that the sta ture of a man in life is definitely not indicated by his auto license number. EMPEROR’S DAUGHTER WED . . .

Recovery, Ohio: I remember when in the horse and buggy days, a hitch-up race was held near Greenville, Ohio. Half a dozen young men lined up their buggies with harness in buggy and horse tied to rear axle. At a signal, they harnessed the horse, hitched it to the buggy and started down the track. My brother Willie won the prize, a box of cigars, but he didn’t smoke. From C. L. Leonhard, Portland, Ind.: I remember when men would strike the old-fashioned matches on the side of their leg to light pipes and cigars. From habit they would forget and ruin their Sunday trousers. From Elsie Mae Norman, Scott City, Kan.: I remember when my mother made polish for my little brother’s shoes by mixing soot from the inside of a stove lid with lard. After crowding into a one-seated rig with him, I always arrived at our destination with generous smudges of the greasy stuff oh my best dress. From Mrs. Agnes Buck, Waterloo, 111.: I remember the old hard coal baseburners of the 1890’s. And there is one still in use right here in Waterloo. A hardware merchant still uses it in his store. From Mrs. Estella Cobb, Waeo, Texas: t remember when we put our milk and meat in a small bucket and placed them in the oak en bucket and let them down in the well to cool. Corn that wasn’t hard enough to go to mill, we grated on tin punched with holes and called the product bolted meal. WITHOUT COUNTRY . . . M. P.
