A/fORNING “newsdrinkers” who
nice their headlines strong,
bold and black, listen to Mutual’s
weekday “Cecil Brown and the
Real-News of the Morning”. . .
There were hours when his ex
periences gathering news got too
“real”. . . In World War II when
Cecil-on-the-spot was aboard the
HMS Repulse, a Japanese bomber
blasted her to the bottom . . . Two
hours later, dripping in sea water.
Brown broadcast a word picture
of this historic battle . . . Again
under fire, he debonairly dodged
bombs in Belgrade to air his im
pressions of facist Italy.
In Germany on New Year’s Day,
1950, this Mutual man broke the
story of Soviet use of slave labor
for mining uranium in Communist
dominated country . . . Brown was
a fugitive from the law of aver
ages, escaping a plane wreck and
being stalked by trigger - happy
Communist agents in East Ger-
tnany as he covered the war areas.
Brown’s life began nndramati-
cally, in New Brighton, Penn .
When the century and commenta
tor were both in their twenties, he
graduated from Ohio State Uni
versity after transferring from
Western Reserve College ... As
a reporter he joined the Youngs
town, Ohio Vindicator staff . . .
Stowing away aboard a ship bound
for South America, he made up
his passage signing as a seaman
. . His ensuing travels led him
a roman-candle pace . . . His ex
periences are documented by sto
ries sent to his Youngstown paper.
Mutual’s “Crusader of Truth”
joined forces with the United Press
and such papers as the Pittsburg
Press, Newark Ledger and the
New York American . . In 1937,
“before the world was caught in
the folds of Chamberlain’s um
brella,” he shipped to Europe as a
free-lance correspondent, and was
later hired by the INS for its Paris
bureau ... At this time he began
his famous short wave Mutual

Exhibit Tent Be
Constructed For
Farm-Home Week
CLEM SON—Plans are now be
ing completed for displays to be
placed in the huge exhibit tent to
be erected on Bowman Field dur
ing the annual Farm and Home
Week, August 15-19.
G. H. Stewart, leader, Clemson
Agricultural Engineering Exten
sion Work, and chairman of the
Farm and Home Week exhibit tent
committee, says 'that prospects
point to the largest .and most va
ried display in the tent in the
history of Farm and Home Week.
He says that reservations have
already been made for practically
all of the space in a tent 460 feet
long and 50 feet wide, which was
the size of last year’s tentT Appli
cations continue to come in and
Mr. Stewart has asked that all
who expect to ask for space let
him know not later than July 24
so that arrangements may be
made for a tent sufficiently large
to care for all exhibits. Because
of the cost in the erection .and
maintenance of the tent, a nomi
nal charge is made for space.
A wide variety of exhibits which
cannot be shown in the .open on
Bowman Field will be on display
under the tent. The exhibits will
include farm and home equip
ment, electric appliances, labor-
saving devices, home furnishings,
seeds, fertilizers, insecticides, and
other items Which contribute to
satisfactory farm and home life.
No livestock will be exhibited in
the tent.

“Your Private Bankers’*
1418 Main St. Newberry
of 1953
If some bold individual had
told you on April 27, 1935 that'
farmers in these 8 counties would
build 346 ponds during the first
half of 1955 you would probably
have told him, “You are crazy
with the heat.” Just 20 years ago
last April 27 was the date the
President signed Public Law 46
which established the Soil Con
servation Service. During the 20
intervening years interest in soil
and water conservation has rap
idly increased. The law resulted,
in part, from experimental work
on soil erosion started in 1928 at
10 experiment stations.
Th« need for saving the soil was
further dramatized by 175 demon
stration projects in the nation’#
m^jor soil areas and by work of
several hundred Civilian Conserv
ation Corps camps.
Many conservation practices
were tried by cooperating farm
ers. Those which proved most
beneficial and practical have been
used since.
SCS activities are based on the
preamble of the Soil Conservation
Act passed 20 years ago:
“It is hereby recognized,” the
preamble reads, “that the wast
age of soil and moisture resour
ces on the agriculture, ' grazing
and forest lands of this nation is
a menace to national welfare and
that it is hereby declared to be
the policy of Congress to provide
permanently for the control and
prevention of soil erosion.”
When the 1935 act became law
the State governments were en
couraged to enact legislation to
provide a means of carrying oh
the soil and water conservation
programs to fit local needs, to en
courage local participation and to
provide for local administration.
Today, all States, territories and
insular possessions of the United
States have soil conservation dis
trict laws. There are 2650 soil
conservation districts. South Car
housing the exhibits, the tent, will
be used for holding an informal
reception for campus people and
visitors on the opening night.

were awarded to Miss Julia Curry
of Brunswick, Georgia and Rich

presented a piece of china in her
chqsen pattern.
The hostess, assisted by Mrs.
W. L. Leaphart, Sr., served sand
wiches, cup cakes, toasted nuts
and London fog. Twenty four en

Mrs. R. T. Pugh has returned
home from two weeks’ visit with
her children in Atlanta and Mar-

Some of the hoys j ust stuffed
them in their' pockets, in a sort
of tangled way, with other things.
But I always wound mine around
my hand and tied them like a
plow line. Then they didn’t get
tangled and knot up. Boys have.a
lot of uses for strings.
I usually had an Indian arrow

always there. And a slingshot and
a few extra pieces of pliable lea

of an old shoe. They were used
as the piece to hold the rock in
the slingshot, you know.
We always managed to find
some scraps of lead somewhere.
And we usually had some of that
in our pockets. We’d use it to
mark on the barn and for sink

A few assorted rocks of varied
hues, that looked like bird eggs,
were treasured too and carried in
our pockets. A couple of whistles
