Mrs. Smith who represented the chapter at the State Convention in September, gave a clear and comprehensive report, mentioning that the local chapter had won two citations in connection with last year’s drive, one of which was for exceeding the quota. Mrs. Smith stated that the theme of the convention was “Planning a Total Program Foi The Exceptional Child.” Dr. Don ald Russell, president of the Uni versity of South Carolina, gave the welcome in which he empha sized that the “giver gets more than the receiver—an illustration of the American idea of com passion.” Mrs. Smith especially stressed some of the points brought out by Mrs. T.

CLOVER LEAF DRIVE-IN Theatre FRIDAY AND SATURDAY "Francis In The Haunted House” Mickey Rooney, Virginia Welles, Added Color Cartoon: BILL POSTERS Large Crowd At Convocation Wednesday Night By Mrs. A. H. COUNTS Nine persons received honor ary degrees and 15 others were given Distinguished Service aw-v, ards by Newberry college at a Convocation held Wednesday night in McLean Gymnasium in connection with the celebration of the college’s Centennial Year. The speaker was Dr. Theodore A. Distler, executive director. As sociation of American Colleges of Washington, D. C., who used as his subject, “Forward to Poster ity.” The program was opened with an organ number by Professor Darr Wise and the invocation was given by the Rev. Karl W. Kin- ard, D.D., president of the Evan gelical Lutheran Synod of South Carolina. Then followed a song by the College Singers, Dr. Milton Moore, director with Professor J. B. Bedenbaugh as narrator and Professor Wise at the organ. Dr. Gould Wickey, executive secretary of the Board of Higher Education of the United Lutheran Church in America, Washington, D. C., who spoke, termed his brief message, “A Salute to Newberry College—100 years of Service to Church and State.” In his talk Dr. Distler said, “It was • not lightly that its founders gave this college the motto: ‘Pro Ecclesia et Posteritate’. They looked on Newberry College as an instrument of service to the Luth eran church, to the State of South Carolina, to the neighboring states and to the American Nation as a whole, for an indefinite and un- forseeable future. Dr. Distler said that two fea tures seemed to him to standout a s he read the history of New berry College. First, the courage with which its successive teachers and administrators faced what must have seemed an endless ser ies of misfortunes and difficulties which showed itself in the early stages of the college’s history and second, the trustees who put loyalty before prudence, investing the college’s funds in Confederate bonds, rather than in cotton and afterwards seconding the heroic efforts of President Smeltzer to keep the college going through all the devastation and confusion of post war years. Dr. Distler commended Presi dent Kaufmann for the work that he has accomplished and for his plans for the future. “If President Kaufmann did nothing more for Newberry College, his administra tion would be remembered with pride and gratitude by future gen erations because he introduced a pension plan for the faculty and made a start on raiding their sal aries.
