Those who have worked bo complete the project started by a few Newberry citi zens are Duncan Johnson, Alvin Jackson and Jesse Dawkins of the P. D. Johnson and Co., along with several employees of Buz hardt Furniture Co., who worked two days installing wire on the fence and backstop at the field. The Murray Lumber Company supplied the lumber; the Newber ry Lumber Company supplied roofing, paint and other mater ials, and the Cannon Construc tion and Supply furnished labor to build two handsome dugouts. Everett and Claude Summer painted the dugouts and fence, and Chapman-Hawkins Hardware supplied nails and other items.

For many years to come this field will be used by hundreds of boys eight to thirteen years old who are working hard to become members of the six teams in the Little Boys Baseball League. The above contributions amounted to a large sum of money, and the committee feels the citizens of Newberry should be deeply grate ful to these and others who have helped with the field.

PTA Group Hears Art Discussion “Art Should Be In Our Curric ulum” was the topic for discussion at the meeting of the Junior High Parent-Teachers association ,last Thursday evening, when Mrs. Aubrey Harley, chairman of mu sic and art, presented a program which featured* a panel composed of Dr. Foster Martin, Mrs. Eva Bullock, Don Rook, and Bohden Kolodij, with Philip Kelly a s moderator. Dr. Martin, whose hobby is art, mentioned that art in the schools helped the students now and in later life through heightening the power of observation and could be helpful in sufch vocations as ar chitecture, medicine and * teaching. Mrs. Bullock pointed out that the main purpose of art is the devel opment of the individual person ality rather than the product. Bohden Kolodij, high school stud ent, traced the history of art and told what it meant in his life thru relaxation, self-expression and ap preciation of the beautiful. He stated that even the limited help given in this field in junior high helps a great deal in such sub jects as science, health and geo graphy, but that he felt not en ough time given to it. Don Rook, who spoke from the standpoint of a parent, said that children like to do things with their hands, and spoke of the usefulness of art im medicine and sports. He discussed the practical and financial matters involved in putting art in the curriculum. In summing up the panel discussion Mr. Kelly mentioned that it is necessary for the school authori ties to be interested in having art in the curriculum before it can become a rfeality. One of the most interesting fea tures of the program was a series of original paintings by Mrs. Bul lock, illustrating the song “Trees” which Charlie Harley sang, ac companied by his mother. Linda Cousins played “Spanish Dance” a piano solo. « During the business session, deh egates to the State PTA conven tion made their reports. Deleg ate JFrom Junior high were Mes- dames Naomi Epting, Lewis Lips comb, Helen Youmans, James Ab rams, John Felker, and Hubert Setzler. The scrapbook kept by Mrs. Tedford won second place at the convention, and the PTA was presented membership and honor roll certificates. An excellent art exhibit was ar ranged on the first floor by Mrs. Harley, assisted by Mrs. Henry Cousins, Mrs. ^Arthur McCarrell, George Tyson * and several stud ents. The media represented were water coflor, oil, crayon, pencil and carvings. Those participating in the exhibit were Dr. Foster Mar tin, George Tyson, Miss Pat Wil- sky, Mrs. Paul Grier, Mrs. Jack Jenkins, Mrs. C. M. Smith, Mrs. Houseal Jay, Mrs. Warren Cous ins, Mr^w B. M. Scurry, Margaret Ann Hunter, Mrs. Herbert Spell, Bill Shealy, the late Dr. Reybum Lominack, Roman Kilodij, Mrs. Robert Kennerly, Ed Gatlin, Mar cia Mills, Mrs. Bullock, Mrs. Syd Paine, Mrs. Foster Martin, Billy Carter. Social Security Reports Are Due Social Security reports are due in April from housewives in New berry county who employ do mestic workers, according to Miss Martha Pressly, manager of the Greenwood district office, Social Security administration. House wives are required to make these reports during April on house hold workers paid as much as $50 in cash wages in January, Feb ruary, and March. This is the 5th quarterly report due since the new law covered household em ployees without regard to the number of days worked. Reports are sent to the District Director of Internal Revenue at Columbia. Work of cooks, maids, house keepers, gardeners & other wor kers in a private household counts toward eligibility for retirement or death payments under the old- age and survivors insurance if they are paid at least $50 cash wages by one employer in a cal endar quarter. If the household employee works long enough to be insured, benefits are payable in old age or to certain survivors in case of death. Free booklets explaining the employer's obligation and bene fits to the employee are available at the social security office lo cated at 516 South Main Street in Greenwood, S. C.
