VOL. 16—NO. 7 NEWBERRY, SOUTH CAROLINA THURSDAY, JUNE 18, 1953 $2.00 PER YEAR Whirlwind Fund Campaign For Blood Bank Program Be Conducted Tomorrow As a forerunner to the whirl wind campaign to raise a mini mum of $2,00h to continue the blood program in Newberry coun ty, the Lk>y Scouts of Newberry will distribute circulars through out the city today (Thursday), ex plaining in detail the purpose of the campaign. Original plans called for a can vass by both Roy and Girl Scouts in the business district of New berry Friday, the one day set for the fun raising effort. However, since that time it has been learn ed that Boy Scouts are prohib ited from solicitation of funds for any purpose. And as their part in the campaign, they will distribute the literature explaining the pur pose of the drive. Tomorrow, Girl Scouts will call on all merchants and business people in the city for their donations. As Hated before, the success of the drive decides whether the blood bank program in Newberry is continued. The following letter signed by all Newberry county doctors, urg ing that the program be continued is printed below: “Recognizing the great import ance and necessity of the continu ation of the Red Cross Blood Bank program in Newberry County, and the possible misunderstanding of some people about the administra tion of this program, we would like to make the following state ment: “Under the Red Cross Blood Bank program it is necessary for citizens of the city and county to contribute money for the expenses of operating the blood program. Then, too, it is necessary for peo ple to donate tludr blood when ever the Bloodmobile makes its periodical visits to the county. Without the blood program in our county many sick patients would be faced with a serious problem. In some cases lives might be lost. With the Red Cross Blood Bank program in operation we usually have access to the type blood that might be required in any emergency. Without the Blood Bank it would take two or three hours or more to secure matching blood which in cases of emergency, might be too late. “We urge every citizen within the county to cooperate 100% by contributing generously to the forthcoming Whirl-wind Campaign to be conducted on Friday. June 19th, in order that we might con tinue to participate in this valu able blood program. Also, we urge everyone that is physically able to donate a pint of blood as often as possible whenever the Blood- mobile visits our community. “In this project so vital to all of us\. we cannot afford to fail; with your cooperation we shall not fail.” SIGNED: E.

They stated that all proceeds from this effort will go toward the operation of the blood bank since it is being con ducted sepparately from the Red Cross general fund drive.

Prof. J. V. Kneece, sup erintendent .of Newberry High school, was guest speaker. Mr. Kneece .related how the high school curriculum helps to teach youth principles of democracy and how to be good citizens. The speaker declared that the public schools were teaching youth to be good citizens, not only in the history and citizenship class es. but in all curriculum and on the campus. The superintendent said that public schools had received some bad publicity through the daily press due to a few cases of fraud in college and high school sports. He said that to his knowledge there had been one case in South Carolina of players being bought off. but that this was certainly the exception. Mr. Kneece related how school elections, patterned after the democratic method, were conduct ed at Newberry High. By teach ing our youth the processes of democracy while they are in school, they will make better, more interested voters when they become of age, he continued. The speaker concluded with the statement that he believed pub lic schools were teaching pupils to be better American citizens, but emphasized that the job could not be done by the schools alone, but in the pupil's home life as well. A report was heard from the finance committee of the club. It was decided to borrow the money necessary to complete pluipbing and other repairs on the club’s lake property.

Champion Paper Movie 'Deep Roots' Has Many Local An interesting and informative story about the paper industry, The Champion Paper and Fibre Company’s new color-sound film, “Deep Roots,” will be presented in a preview for the Newberry area, Thursday, June 25, with the pub lic invited to view the picture in its first public showing at the Community Hall, beginning at 3:15 p.m. One of three new color-sound motion pictures recently complet ed for Champion Paper and pro duced by Wilding Picture Produc tions. Inc., Chicago, “Deep Roots” is a story which centers around the theme of forestry, though it is not a technical treatise on the subject. Rather, it tells of how the paper industry developed the use of pine in making paper. The 45-minute movie shows how the discovery and demand for pine had far reaching effects upon folks in parts of the South. It reveals how pine created new sources of revenue, while chang ing a way of life, as man learned to farm trees for profit and tim- berlands began to spring up every where. Filmed principally in the Caro- linas, “Deep Roots” discloses how thousands of small woodlot own ers, scientific farming and se lective cutting, supply the pine that helps Champion Paper make the fine white paper demanded by printers, publishers and fabrica tors of the thousands of paper pro ducts used so casually everyday in the world’s markets. A number of scenes in “Deep Roots” picture an old, abandoned nouse on the Aunt Nannie Living ston Place or more recently known as the Payne Place in the Bush River section. The entire story is centered around three generations of the mythical Har rison family and how Judd, the senior member of the family, be came a tree farmer and woodlot owner, later to see his son, Charles, become a skilled forester. Another Champion Paper pic ture, “Good Business,” was like wise filmed in part in the New berry community, with a number of townspeople taking prominent roles. This film will be made available for public showings sometime during the late fall sea son, according to Manager R. D. Coleman, Jr., Fairfield Forest Products Company, who serves as host to the coming “Deep Roots” preview. Hospital Patients James H. Abrams, Route 2. Po maria. Mrs. E. C.

A fire, assumed to have been started by smokers, burned three-tenths of an acre on lands of John Martin at Silverstreet. Another blaze on the lands of Mrs. Forest Wicker, destroyed one- half an acre. This started from a fire around a wash pot. A two acre fire on lands of S. P. Mills near Newberry was started from a chain saw cutting pulpwood on the farm. A tractor fire caused one acre to be burn ed on the Fred Wier place near Xewberrv. Anger is the most impotent of passions. It effects nothing it goes about, and hurts the one who is possessed by it more than the one against whom it is directed. Clarendon.

General Sessions court was short lived here this week, end ing a few hours after having con vened with the three most im portant cases being postponed un til another court. The case of the Negro Penny who fflurdered a mother and her two children was postponed to give court-appointed lawyers time to prepare his defense. The case of the Negro Viola Byrd charged with killing her husband was con tinued as was the case of Jesse Floyd charged in the death of one Simmons in the Dominick section of the county. Most of the charged plead guilty and so the court was able to dis pose of them in assembly line fashion. Under legislation passed re cently by the G-eneral Assembly, petit jurors are required to appear for duty the second day of court. Since there were no cases to be decided by jury action during this term, they were saved the trouble of appearing. Cases disposed of included: John Edward Skipper, house breaking, continued. Willie Lee Thacker said he was guilty of the crime of bastardy (probably man’s first crime) and was ordered to support the little tike to the extent of $5 per week. James Simms admitted to deal ing in illegal booze and w r as given the choice of 15 days or $100. James was also convicted of main taining a statutory nuisance. He was given a year for this but will go on probation for two years after 30 days served and $100 paid to the county. Tom Hair and William Cannon had their cases continued. They were charged with petty crimes. Another bastardy case involved John Woods but his case was nol- prossed. Charles Barr admitted he left home, wife and kids to shift for themselves. The court thought this pretty awful and gave him a year, $1500 fine and ordered him to pay $25 per week to his family. Ollie Colema^ got itching feet on three different occasions out at the county home and took off for the domain of the free. The judge thought this worth six months for each fleeing, so tack ed that much on to the end of Ollie’s present stretch. George Bedenbaugh made a lit tle licker and admitted it. For his frankness he was let off with 15 days and a century note. Ordinance Regulating Gas Installers Passes Council A special meeting of the New berry city council was held last Wednesday afternoon at three o’ clock.
