Clarkson Presents
Library History
Of Furman Univ.
A copy of “Furman University—
A History” has been presented on
behalf of Furman University to
the Newberry-Saluda Regional Li
brary by John F. Clarkson of New
berry, who recently served as
county chairman in The Greater
Furman Fund drive.
Written by Dr. R. N. Daniel,
dean emeritus of Furman, the 289-
page book describes highlights in
the university’s history since its
founding in 1826. The book was
privately printed by the universi
ty.
Beginning in Edgefield, Furman
was subsequently located at High
Hills of Santee and at Winnsboro
before moving to Greenville in
1851. It is the mother of the South
ern Baptist Theological Seminary,
Louisville, Ky., the latter having
been an outgrowth of the depart
ment of thelogy at Furman in 1859.
Except from the period from
1893 through 1900, Furman was a
men’s college until 1933, when
Greenville Woman’s College,
j founded in the early 19th cen
tury was merged with it_ Since
that time the University has op
erated buses to provide transpor
tation between the two campuses.
Furman has begun construction
of a $15,000,000 new campus on a
1,000 acre tract five miles north
of the Greenville business district
in an effort to begin use of the
new campus not later than 1957.
“Furman has a closs association
with Newberry County,” Mr.
Clarkson said in pointing out that
10 students from the county were
enrolled at Furman during the
first semester and some 57 former
students now reside in the coun
ty.”

Drunk Driving Said
Most Frequest Cause
License Suspension
A total of 1,403 South Carolin
ians lost their driving privileges
in January, the state Highway De
partment announced. More than
half of these, 742, were for drunk
en driving.
Newberry County had 11 license
suspensions during January, the
report said. Of that number nine
were for drunk driving. "
The next largest number of
withdrawals was for failure to
meet requirements of the Safety
<>Responsibllity Act. There were
568 persons who lost their privil
eges to drive when they could not
prove financial responsibility in
case of an accident or failed to re
port accidents.
Reckless driving was respon
sible for the withdrawal of 58
privileges, while the point system,
only in effect for the first two
weeks of January, accounted for
32 suspensions.
Chief Highway Commissioner
Claude R. McMillan noted that the
number of suspensions last month,
as in recent years, continued to
climb while South Carolina’s
death rate consistently dropped.
This certainly indicates that the
increase in license suspensions
and the decrease in accident
deaths are definitely related, he
said.
The total number of suspen
sions since the beginning of the
1954-55 fiscal year on July 1 is
now 9,543, according to the report.
During this seven-month period,
5,611, or about 59 per cent, have
been for drunken driving.
The age group with the largest
number of violations in the first
seven months of the 1954-55 fiscal
year was the 17-29 group.
