By L.YN CONNELLY EVERYONE knows this is m day of inflation but it came as quite a shock to find that things were so inflated that the old $64 question has now become the $64,000 question . ., CBS-TV has come up with a sum mer quiz show by the name of “The $64,000 Question” and it lacks noth ing when it comes to interest and suspense . . . The'questions are fair ly difficult from the very beginning and as they go on they’re well nigh impossible for anyone but a really learned person . . . That’s where the suspense builds up because as the contestant gambles on doubling $8,000 or $16,000 he will wind up with only a ear ^s consolation (ordinari ly this is rather nice consolation, es pecially since you get the highest- priced convertible on the market; but ffter toying around with that much cash and trying for as much as $64,000 the car seems a mere token). Incidentally, Hal March does a nice job as emcee although hia en thusiasm bubbles all oVer your TV screen and as a consequence cool and collected contestants must be chosen so at least one of them can be calm. Can’t think ef another show th*t has aroused as much interest or garnered as much publicity aa this one . If the sponsor had to give out $64,000 to a contestant every week (which isn’t possible since one must come back for one question per week after reaching $8,000) it would be well worth it in the tre mendous audience . . . Every per son with one drop of gambler's blood is glued to bis set on Tuesday nights and what more could the sponsor dream for during these hot* humid nights? Mr. and Mrs. B. C. Bedenbaugh and their children spent Sunday in Orangeburg with Mrs. Rodney Counts. Mrs. J. L. Counts, Miss Annie Hunter, Mr. and Mrs. Richard Footer and their son, of Eai} Claire spent Sunday In the mountains of North Carolina. i Mrs. J. R. Bedenbaugh has re turned from Columbia where she visited her daughter, Mrs. Cedi Finlay and was with another daughter, Mrs. W. E. Senn, of Newberry, who underwent surg ery in the Columbia, hospital.

I haven’t consulted a physician about this strange "malady (even thruigh my wife says it often makes me appear impolite) because it af fects me only infrequently, and be sides, there is little the medical world can do about it By a process of deductions and associations, I have decided the ail ment is due to a strong dose of suspicion that I picked up some where in my travels along the road of life. As a rule, the eyebrow stays where it belongs, but let me en counter a stranger who calls me by my first name and says he wants to give me something “free", and I become suddenly a man with an affliction. No amount of mental or physical effort can keep that hair line down. , To make matters worse, 1 usually become speechless for a moment, a condition I’m sure adds to the illu sion of impoliteness my wife speaks of. After the stranger gathers his wits he usually explains that I was chosen because my nanfe has a “nice sound” and besides the “chief selector of those to be honored with ’free* samples'* came up with my name through a process of elimination—meaning he put on blindera, circled around a chair three times and then put his finger down on a telephone book, right smack-dab on my lucky name. . Explanations however, aren’t ^strong enough medicine to bring that brow back yhere it belongs. Nothing but time win do it and it usually takes two or three days. In recent weeks this quizeical brow has caused me to lose out on some free dancing lessons, a set of high-priced reference books and a free 8x10 portrait Farm And Home Week Will Attrack Thousands Clemson, August 4. — SpeakerAj ference which Dr. Carr will load of unusual ability, training and during the week. fields will appear on the assembly wide experience in their respec tive programs here during Farm Tliey are Miss Helen G.
