REGARDLESS OF CIRCUM- STANCES, EACH MAN LIVES IN A WORLD OF HIS O W N MAKING. — Joseph Murray Emms. VOLUME 19, DUMBER 29 NEWBERRY, SOUTH CAROLINA, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 15, 1956 + $2.00 PER YEAR By The Way By Dor4« A. Sander* TOO VERBOSE Because of the lengthy nature <jf several other articles in this week’s issue, I have been ordered to cut this corner short, even though 1 had a number of things on my mind this week. Ihey will eiave. There are just a few things I wdll mention: first, that pictuie of Shealy Florist chrysanthemums won’t be in this week nor will any other local pictures, due to a breakdown in part of our cut-mak ing process; we hope it will be all right again by next week. Sec ond, that was a fine game at New'berry College last w r eek, but the victory w-as marred for every one because of the serious injury and resulting critical condition of the Redskin quarterback, Steve Peterson. Chris Kaufmann told me this morning that the doctors eay it is still too early to tell what the outcome will be, but that his condition must be consid ered critical. He is resting fairly well and is not in too much pain. The injury, as you perhaps know\ was a broken neck and Steve is paralyzed from the chest dow'n. Charlie Pruitt had six bands on the field at half-time and they ■did an excellent job of entertain ing. More about that later. I have been asked to tell you that tickets for, the Turkey Day classic to be played this year at P. C. are on sale at the usual ticket-selling places in Newberry. Game time is 2:30 p. m. Thanks giving Day and some choice seats are still available. Hoffmeyer Rites Wednesday; Brother Is City Resident Gus Hoffmeyer, 54, manager of plant operations for Southern Bell Telephone and Telegrapih Company in the Hartsville area, died early Monday night at the Hartsville hospital from injuries received a few hours earlier ■when he fell from a pecan tree. Mr. Hoffmeyer, a resident of Hartsville for 30 years, was a j brother of Marion Hoffmeyer of Newberry. He is also survived by Ins wife, one son, his parents, four other brothers, three sisters, and two grandchilren. Funeral services were conduct ed Wednesday at 3:00 p. m. at the Wesley Methodist Church by the Rev. R. C. Griffith. Burial was in Magnolia Cemetery. Discrepancies In Fund Handling By Clerk Revealed Disregard of the instructions of the Newberry County Delega tion led again to criticism of the Clerk of Court in the annual audit of Newberry County for the per iod ended June 30, 1956. In the 1955 audit of the office of Charles E. Bowers, Clerk of Court, auditors found a deficiency in the non-support payment funds. According to the audit report sub mitted to the Newberry County Legislative delegation last year, the deficiency was rectified be fore the report was submitted, but a full account of the deficien cy and subsequent repayment was contained in that report. The auditors, Raymon R. Finch & Co., stated “In our opinion, funds handled by Mr. Charles E. Bow el’s, Clerk of Court of Newberry County, have not been handled with the propriety becoming the office of Clerk of Court, even though the amount involved is relatively small and has been re stored.’’ As a result of this audit, the County Delegation instructed the Clerk of Court that all non-sup port monies received by him should be remitted to beneficiar ies within 24 hours from receipt of same. On November 7, 1956, the aud it of E. L. McGowan was sent to the County Delegation. The letter of transmittal contained the fol lowing information: “CLERK OF COURT: During the audit of the financial records for the year ending June 30, 1955, Mr. Raymon R. Finch, Certified Public Accountant, discovered certain discrepancies in the hand ling of non-support payments by the Clerk of Court. This discovery was promptly reported to you. On October 11, 1955, this discrepan cy was replaced in the Clei'k of Court’s bank account. “Shortly thereafter you in structed the Clerk of Court to de posit in the bank and disburse to the beneficiary these non-support funds within twenty-four hours after receiving same. This was followed in detail, and very accu rately, until June 9, 1956. Begin ning with the deposit made on June 9, and intermittently there after until October 11, 1956, the deposits did not agree with his receipts. During this period the discrepancies varied from a short age of $1.50 to $112.00; the over deposits varied from $2.00 to $347.00. None of these discrep ancies resulted in all the money received being deposited until September 17, 1956, at which time all money collected by the Clerk of Court had been deposited in the bank account. On September 22 there was an over-deposit of $5.00 to the bank account, and on September 24 a shortage of $5.00 in the deposit to the bank ac count. On October 8 there was an over-deposit of $2.00 to the hank account, and on October 10 there was a shortage of $2.00 in the deposit to the bank account. As of October 11, all non-support funds collected by the Clerk had been deposited in the bank ac count. “When counting the cash on October 15, 1956, we questioned the clerk in regard to these de posits and he explained that these discrepancies were due to his running for re-election to the of fice of Clerk of Court. The clerk also explained that during May 1955, he had received $354.00 for support of the children of John Vaughn, Jr. with a letter from the Welfare Department author izing him to disburse these funds at his discretion. He further ex plained that he had kept these funds in the Clerk’s office and v r hen he disbursed them to John Vaughn, Sr. he would deposit the necessary amount to his personal bank account and draw a personal check and deposit the personal check to the non-support bank account, and then draw a cheek to John Vaughn, Sr. on the non support funds bank account. On June 30, 1956, there was $50.00 of these funds not deposited to the non-support account or dis bursed to John Vaughn, Sr. When we counted the cash of the Clerk’s office on July 1, 1956, this amount of $50.00 was not disclosed to us as being on hand, and when ask ed about it after discovery on Oc tober 15, the Clerk explained that he did not think about it during the count of July .1 There has been no meeting of the County Delegation to discuss (Continued on page 8) Dixie Store Now In New Building On Main Street Beautiful interior coloring and decorations, background music, non-glare lighting and thousands of bargains are among the fea tures greeting the visitors and shoppers at the new Dixie-Home Store which opened Wednesday on Main Street in Newberry. The attractive dome-topped building is located away from the side walk with parking space provid ed customers near the front ent ry. Inside, the pastel green dec oration provides the setting for the most modern of equipment in the grocery line, making shopping a pleasure for the housewife, as well as the man of the house who does much of the grocery shop ping these days. M. Everett Longshore, manager of the new store, who has been with the Dixie stores since 1938, invites the public- to visit the new' building. “The store features ultra-modern design,” said Mr. Longshore, “it is completely self- service, and most important, our quality foods are offered at low prices. W'e take pride in main taining these qualities, but above all else, we are proud of our repu tation for courteous service.” J. N. “Buddy” McEntire is as sistant manager of the store. One big feature of the grand opening is the chance to win a new 7 Ford ranch wagon. Custom ers may register each time they visit the Dixie Home store. Draw ing will be held December 24 and winners will be notified. Fiwe $5.00 cash certificates will be given each day for the remain der of this week. Also, today and every day, S&H Green Stamps are given with purchases at Dixie- Home. Harley Be Guest Speaker At Annual Prosperity Banquet State Senator R.

Entertainment will be furnished $2387.50 Cash Turned Over in Fund Audit Of Newberry Crippled Children Society A Certified Public Accountant’s audit of the records of the New berry County Chapter, Crippled Ghildren’s Society, shows the So ciety to be in better financial shape as of September 10, 1956 than at any time since March 1, 1953, when the Society began handling funds on a local basis. Prior to that time, all funds col lected in and for the county were handled by State headquarters of the Crippled Children’s Society. While the September 10th audit showed an overdraft of $75.94 on thb Society’s account at the South Carolina National Bank, there was turned over on that same date the amount of $2387.50 to Mrs. Irwin Satterwhite, Jr., acting chairman of the society, by Charles E. Bowers, who was chairman of the fund raising cam paign of the society in 1954, and whose wife has served as treas urer of the society since March 1, 953. The audit, made by C. Walter ummer, showed for the period larch 1, 1953-August 31, 1953, eceipts of $1,957.30, expenditures f *$797.82, bank balance of $442- 15, leaving $719.63 to be account- d for. The audit for the ensuing year, August 31, 1954, showed a balance of $4.86 with $1,- \ to be accounted for. The editor’s report of the books for te period ended August 31, 1955 _ a $580.36 overdraft in le bank account, and $2,002.56 to a accounted for. The audit for the current year, a of September 10th, showed cash n hand per cash count, $2387.50 ith an overdraft of $75.94 in the ank account, leaving $2,311.56 ash on deposit in the bank Sep- ;mber 10th. Remarks by the CPA prelimin- ary to the report were contained in a letter to Mrs. J. D. French, chairman and members of the Board of Trustees of the County Society. Excerpts from the report are as follows: “The financial records of the Society, with the exception of cer tain supporting data, were at the home of the treasurer. However, we were informed by the treasur er that the cash on hand was at her husband’s office (Clerk of Court.) The treasurer’s husband, when we inquired about cash on hand belonging to the society, pre sented us with two envelopes. On counting the cash, we found that one envelope contained $75.00 and the other had $2,312.50; therefore, cash on hand Septem ber 10, 1956, at 2:30 p. m. was $2387.50. This money was count ed in the presence of the acting chairman and was returned by us to the husband of the treasurer. He then turned this money ($2,- 387.50) over to the acting chair man of the Society. “It should be noted that on cer tain invoices, there was a consid erable lapse of time between the dates of the invoices, the dates the checks were written, and the dates they were presented to the banks for payment. “As noted in Exhibit B, $350.00 are included in receipts for this period for the repayment of an advance for 1954 drive expenses. This disbursement is a check in the amount of $350.00, dated March 31, 1964, and payable to Cash or Charles E. Bowers, Chairman, Drive 1954, for drive expenses. We could not find any authorization for this check with the exception of the secretary’s counter-signature. “According to Schedule D-l, of the September 1, 1955 cash to be accounted for $122.54 had not been deposited in the bank as of April 8, 1956. Cash to be account ed for September 10, 1956 was $2387.50. “The bank account was over drawn in the amount of $75.94. However, check No. 102 to the Na tional Society for Crippled Chil dren, Inc., dated July 7, 1956, in the amount of $217.28, which is included in outstanding checks, -was returned by the bank on July 2S, 1956, for non-sufficient funds.” Mrs. J. D. French, chairman of the county society, made the fol lowing statement this week: “Following a meeting of its Executive Board on November 7, the Newberry Chapter of the Crippled Children Society of South Carolina is now in position to make its annual report to the people of Newberry County cov ering the year ended August 31, 1956. “Services rendered have large ly been accomplished in coopera tion with the Newberry County Department of Public Welfare. Five wheel chairs and a baby bed have been provided for crippled, white and negro adults, in Kin- ards, Prosperity, Pomaria, Little Mountain and Newberry. Medicine was continually provided for two children in Prosperity. Money was given a teacher of retarded children to assist in securing spec ial education. Transportation was provided and money loaned for treatment of children at the Crip pled Children Center in Columbia. The chapter was instrumental in placing a Negro child in the Piney Woods school to enable the par ents to work. n “During the year a plan has been set up by which the society accepts donations as memorials to deceased persons in lieu of floral tributes. “The Easter Seal Campaign for funds was most succfessful under the chairmanship of Fred V. Les ter. Receipts totaling $2617 ex ceeded the chapter’s quota by some $300. As a result the local chapter and Mr. Lester were giv en citations by tfie State Society. The chapter is most grateful to the people from all parts of the county whose generous support made this achievement possible. “For the first time, the Chap ter is fortupate to have the serv ices of a Certified Public Account ant in making the annual audit of its financial position. This is made possible by the generosity of C. Walter Summer in offering his services without charge. Es sential parts of his report out lining the position of the Chap ter as of September 10, 1956 have been reported here. The full re port may be seen by any inter ested party by request to the chairman, Mrs. J, D. French. “The funds now on hand, $2,- 387, together with donations re sulting from the Easter campaign of 1957 will almost entirely be available to render service to de serving children and adults through the coming year. Officers elected to serve the chapter for the current year are; Mrs. J. D. French, chairman; Mrs. W. H. Tedford, first vice- chairman; Mrs.: Gurdon Counts, secretary; Mrs. Clarence M.

Pure Oil Offer Be Made Good In the October 25, 1956 issue of The Sun, the Pure Oil Company advertised that during that week end, there would be given at each of the four Pure Oil Stations in the city, with the purchase of seven or more gallons of Pure gas, six bottles of Coca-Cola free plus a coupon good for a free lubrica tion when empty bottles were re turned to the dealer. The Sun has been notified that the copy from which the adver tisement was printed was in er* ror; that only those holding the “lucky number’’ coupons were en titled to a free lubrication upon return of the empty cartons. J. L. Lipscomb, Pure Oil distri butor for the county, stated today that he deeply regretted the in advertent omission of this fact from the copy which he gave to this newspaper; that the Pure Oil company and its dealers would stand behind their advertising and would give a free lubrication job to those who purchased the gaso line with the expectation of re ceiving a free car lubrication. He stated that the coupons may be«*e- turaed either to -Griffin’s College Street Pure Oil or Lipscomb Pure Oil Station on College street. The Sun published the adver tisement in good faith, and appre ciates the acknowledgement of the error by Mr. Lijfcscomb and the willingness of the Pure Oil com pany to stand behind its adver tising. Several hours of debate between attorneys, statements by individuals and discussion among- members of City Council culminated Tuesday night in the granting of a request from the Pure Oil Company for permission to erect and operate a gasoline filling sta tion on the corner of Main and Walnut streets. The 3-3 Vote at the end of the two- part meeting came at 11:00 p. m. Mayor Kinard broke the tie by voting to grant the request. Judge Eugene S. Blease appear ed before the regular meeting of council on behalf of the protest ing residents oF the section, about 25 of whom were present in council chambers. Attorney Thomas H. Pope represented A. G. McCaugh- rin, owner of the property, and the Pure Oil Company. Judge Blease spoke at length to council, reviewing the past ap plication of the Pure Oil Company for a similar permit, and the later withdrawal of the request. He read a letter, signed by the protesting parties, the essential parts of which are as follows: The undersigned, some of whom are owners of property and others who are tenants of residential pro perties, in the vicinity of the loc ation where the Pure Oil Company proposes to erect and operate the requested service station respect fully ask you not to grant the re quested permit. Among our rea sons are: “No plans and specifications as to any building or structure to be erected in connection with the said service station have been submit ted to Council.” “That the place where the pro posed service station shall be erected and conducted is embraced in an area which, for many years, has been regarded strictly as a residential section. Already a great part of this section has been in vaded by business establishments, and there should be no further invasion of the territory in that vicinity by commercial and bus iness places. “The value of buildings and land in that vicinity for resident ial purposes, in our opinion, will be greatly decreased.’’ “We especially urge Council to consider that property owners and the tenants of property owners in that vicinity will suffer injuries and damages to them and to their property and property rights as to protection against fire losses. Further, that the erection and operation of said service station will interfere with the security welfare, convenience, health, peace order &nd good government of the city.” “We realize the city and bus iness people wish to make money by and through business estab lishments, but we earnestly sub mit that, after all, a great asset to our fine City is for its residents to own their homes, and those who occupy these homes, as owners or tenants, ought to enjoy their be nefits in peace and comfort. Signed: Property Owners: Mrs. Clem I. Youmans, Clem I. Youmans, M. L. Youmans, Mrs. Hugh B. Senn, Thos. L. Hicks, Mrs. Janie Vance Ellesor, Mrs. E. B. Purcell, C. D. Coleman, Mrs. E. L. Hart, Bebe P. Coleman, Mrs. E. W. Yates, E. W. Yates, Mrs. M. L. Youmans, Mr. and Mrs. G. L. Summer, Jr., Mrs. Jessie Dickert Jessie L. Dickert, Mrs. C. White Fant, Mrs. Sallie T. West, Mrs. Gordon D.

Thomson, Mol- lie Vigodsky, R. B. Baker, Eddie Mae Baker, Mrs. B. A. Buddin, Mr. and Mrs. John J. McSwain. Tenants: Hack Wallace, Mrs. Agnes McSwain Wallace, Mrs. T D Timmons, George E. Stephens, Pauline Stephens, Mrs. T. A. Hol land, Mrs. T. J. Eskridge, T. J. Eskridge, Mrs. C. Walter Sum mer, T. D. Timmons, Mr. and Mrs. Williams Carter After reading the letter, Judge Blease stated “City council is the legislative, judicial and executive body of our city.” He offered to swear some of those present as witnesses but the offer was de clined by the mayor, who stated that he would be glad to hear from any party, but that it wasn’t necessary for them to be put under oath. “We admit,” said Judge Blease, “that there is another filling sta tion for which you granted a per mit. Lots of times we’ve done things hastily without consider ing. We don’t care What happens on the corner of Calhoun and Main streets, or anything that happens in that block from Cal houn to Walnut and Amelia streets. We take the position that that is not binding on this coun cil. If an error has been made . . . you will never correct that by making another error.” Mr. Pope next took the floor and told that the McCaughrins had been offered $35,000 for the lot. He pointed out that the city had been using that lot as a playground for 20 years, during which time the McCaughrin fam ily had paid taxes on the proper ty and had not asked nor expect ed any tax abatement. He stated that the property had been offer ed to two of the neighbors at a price of $10,0p0, the most recent offer having been in 1953, but the offers were declined. The attorney pointed out the number of commercial buildings already operating in the block in question: the Gulf Station, Colo nial Store, Winn-Dixie Store, a funeral home and a boarding house, as well as rental property behind the lot on which Pure Oil proposes to build. A picture of the type of station Pure Oil intends to build was shown to council. Mr. Pope stat ed the company would spend be tween $26,000 and $27,000 to build the «tation and that it would be modern, neat and clean. “Do you think,’’ asked Mr. Pope, “that they would spend $60,000 or $65,000 to put up something that would jeopardize the health of the community?” In colloquy between Judge Blease and Mr. Pope, it was brought out that the lot is 250x 175 and that the dimensions of the building would be' about 38x 40 to be erected on the corner. Judge Blease asked James L. Lipscomb, distributor in this coun ty for Pure Oil, if he was person ally interested in the granting of the request. “As distributor for Pure Oil Company,” replied Mr. Lipscomb> “I would have to be.” There was some argument among the visiting delegation as to whether Mr. McCaughrin had offered to sell the property for $10,000 to two of the residents of the community, and as to whether he had made a proposition to Clem I. Youmans that Mr. Youmans, Pete Coleman and Mr. McCaugh rin should pay $9,000 each for joint ownership of the property. Mr. McCaughrin denied that he had made such a proposition, stat ing that he could not have done so since he was not the sole own er of the property. He stated that he may have told Mr. Youmans that he thought the property was worth $27,000. “I know that once' I offered it to you for $10,000,” he said, “and I offered it to Pete (Coleman) for $10,000 in 1953.” Mrs. Richard L. Baker read a letter written on behalf of resi dents of Walnut street, stating that “we, are deeply concerned about being invaded with all the business establishments ... we don’t deny the right of the owner to sell the property ... it would not be too objectionable if digni fied buildings were erected, such as office buildings, doctor’s offi ces, telephone exchange, hotels.’’ The letter also mentioned that a traffic hazard already exists be cause of the Colonial Stores and that a filling station on the other corner would make the situation more dangerous. She also questioned the advisa bility of council granting a permit for the Winn-Dixie stores to con struct the type grocery building which opened yesterday on Main street. Councilman Armfield stat ed that council had no control over any type of buildings con structed in the city except those specifically named in the ordin ance, filling stations, livery stab les and garages. Following the discussion, the delegation left and council defer red action on the question. At the conclusion of the regular agenda, council adjourned, but only for about ten minutes, after which the body went in aemdon again and immediately took up the question of the Pure Oil permit. City Attorney Harley refd the ordinance and cited ' applicable cases which have been heard in the - South Carolina Supreme Court. 1 After much discussion and re luctance on the part of council members to act, Mayor Kinard stated “if you split the vote, I will break the tie.” He gave no indication of the way in which he would vote, even though member of council asked for his recommendation. Councilman Dufford stated “I feel deeply interested in the peo ple of that section. I also know there are business concerns on all corners. I c«.n’t see wher'e gn- other would be more injurious to anyone. The traffic situation is alreadv there. I don’t think it will jeopardize safety. That’s why I make the motion that the per mit be granted.” v Councilman Armfield seconded the motion, stat|rig “in light of the fact that we granted the per mit for the other (Gulf) filling station, and those residents didn’t object, and that would have been an excellent time to stop the movement of business concerns in that direction, I don’t see how we can do anything else.” Mayor Kinard asked for a vote and Councilman Dufford and Armfield voted for, Councilman Layton and Jones against grant ing the permit. Councilman S. D. Paysinger and Cecil Merchant, who refrained from voting on the first tally, voted on the second S call Paysinger, yes, Merchant, no. Mayor Kinard broke the tie «id the permit was granted. Other business transacted dur ing the regular session: Council voted to spend $1250 to try to make the City Hall offices look a little more decent; Approved the construction of a new electric distribution feeder line to serve the west section of the City, to be located along Scotts Creek between the city substation and the western city limits at an estimated cost of $12,86fe.OO; Appointed a committee consist ing of Councilman Armfield, chairman, Councilmen Paysinger, Merchant and Jones to recom mend an ordinance to regulate the 1957 business licenses. The committee set a meeting date for Monday night next week. Council was notified that C. P. A. Walter Summer was audit ing the city books and the audit should be available by the Decem ber meeting. Council deferred until the De cember meeting a request for the erection and operation of an auto repair garage in the 2300 block of Johnstone street. - ‘ Council granted a request from C. D. Coleman to erect and oper ate a gasoline service station at the intersection of College and Reid streets. BIRTHDAY GREETINGS Nov. 16: Mrs. D. J. Williams, Mrs. Pope L.
