PAGE SIX THE NEWBERRY SUN THURSDAY, OCTOBER 16, 1968 • Local 4-H’ers Take Prizes At Greenwood Show (By COUNTY AGENTS) Newberry 4-H’ers Win at Green-rood Newberry 4-H Calf Club mem bers captured 7 out of 10 first place awards and both champion ship awards in the Junior Jersey Show at Greenwood last week, to set an outstanding record in out- of-county competition. David Sease won the most first place awards by placing 1st gn the Senior Yearling Class of both the Junior and Open Shows and 1st in the Showmanship class. David’s yearling heifer went on to take the junior female cham pionship of both the Junior and open shows. Judith Halfacre took top hon ors in the Junior Show with her 4 year old cow “Janie” who was named Senior and Grand Cham pion of the show. Ann Duckett’s heifer placed 1st in the Senior Calf Class of both the Junior and open show, while Alice Bedenbaugh placed 1st in the 2 year-old class. Evangeline Lide placed 1st in the Junior Yearling class, and Leonard Half acre placed 1st in the Junior Calf Class of the Junior Show\ Newberry members also won 5 out of 10 places in both the best- fitted class and the Showmanship class of the Junior Show, Judge Ray Morrow of Char lotte, N. C. was most complimen tary of the outstanding show at Greenwood and spoke highly of the quality of animals shown by Newberry 4-H members. We are sincerely proud of this enviable record made by our Dairy Calf Club members. This reflects the untiring efforts made by these members to bring credit to them selves and their club. This week, our Calf Club mem bers will be showing their animals at the Piedmont Interstate Fair in Spartanburg and next week will be at the State Fair in Columbia. We wish for them continued suc cess at these two shows. Seed Small Grains All farmers are urged to con tinue seeding small grains this month. Remember how the weath er caught most folks and we only got about half a crop of our small grains planted last year. Small grains are still an im portant cash crop to many of our farmers as well as being of vital importance to our livestock econ omy in Newberry County. Our specialists at Clemson tell us we lose thousands of dollars each year due to diseases that at tack our small grains. Harold F. Long is cooperating in conducting a demonstration on his farm that may tell us more about how to fight the “Oat Yellows” that cut oat yields on most farms last year. Top Dress Grazing Crops Most dairy farmers now have fall grazing crops up and some are beginning to graze them. Hen ry Parr has about the best fall grazing we’ve seen for this time of year. Remember to top dress grazing crops with nitrogen to get needed growth before cold weather. Per- Mid-Carolina High School Is Dedicated By MRS. A. H. COUNTS Architects and educators can design a school building, but it is the students and parents who must dedicate it by act and deed. This was the observation made here Sunday afternoon by Supt. C. S. Williams as 1,000 people gathered to dedicate Mid-Carolina High School, a sparkling $400,000 building to serve Prosperity, Po- maria and Little Mountain. Supt. Williams told his audi ence that “this attractively de signed aesthetically beautiful and functionally planned edifice stands ready to lighten the way toward the best in educational facilities and opportunities for the youth of the Mid-Carolina community.” “Architects and educators can design a building, contractors can build it, but it remains for you and your children to dedicate it by act and deed to those ideals for which America stands, and for which all creeds have fought side by side to perpetuate.” A host of state and local school aignitaries were present at the dedication, which also featured open house with student-guided tours of the handsome school. Brief talks were made by Jesse T. Anderson, State Superintendent of Education; Heyward S. Singley of Columbia, architect for the building; James D. Brown, County Superintendent of Education, P. K. Harmon, Director of Newberry County Schools, and T. W. Hun ter, member of the County Dele gation. Members of the County Board of Education were also recogniz ed. They were W. H. Caldwell, chairman of the board; J .Alvin Kinard, Dan Hamm Jr., Francis M. Setzler, David C. Waldrop, and Gilder M. Neel. Also recognized were the local Advisory Board, B. C. Bedenbaugh, chairman, who presided; C. W. Dominick and D. L. Wedaman Jr. A tour of the building with stu dents as guides followed the pro gram, after which refreshment^ were served in the lunch room. Ralph B. Black of Camp 1078, Woodmen of the World, presented an American flag to be flown over the building. DEED TRANSFERS Newberry No. 1 M. W. Werts et al to Robert E.

Foresters Go To Fire School In Newberry Newberry District forest fire control personnel of the S. C. State Commission of Forestry at tended a school in Newberry on Large Fire Organization on Sep tember 30, 1958 according to Dist rict Forester John Graham. Attending the meeting from the district office, besides Graham, were Foresters Wilbur Reames and Phil Hadway; District Rang er Melton Wall; Forestry Aide Walter Wm. Senn and Tractor Operator-Mechanic Henry Tray lor. Attending from the Newberry County forest fire control unit were Ranger Marvin Wilson; Wardens Bill Longshore and James Lee Mills; and Tractor Op erator Alfred Dorroh. Also in at tendance was Noble Terrel of Champion Paper & Fibre Co. The school was held to ac quaint fire control personnel with organizing and functioning of large number of men and equip ment on a large forest fire. Most fires, according to Graham, are small and can be handled by a small number of men and equip ment. However, one large fire can cause much more loss than all of the normal fires put together. Therefore, personnel need to be trained for rapid organizing on big fires so the fire can be brought under control at the earl iest possible time. According to Graham,men and equipment from any part of the state may be called on to assist, in fact under terms of a compact with adjoining states, aid may be acquired from out of the state. Instructors for the school were Commission of Forestry personnel John Tiller, Asst. State Forester, Fire Control; Fire Control Assist ants John Shirer, J. T. Hance and Hugh Westbury, all from Colum bia Office. From elsewhere were Boris Hurlbutt, Walterboro Dis trict Forester and W. M. Lindsey, Spartanburg District Forester. “We certainly hope that our people will continue to be careful with fire in or near the woods. Yet, we want to be prepared for an emergency should it happen in or outside our district”, said Gra ham. H. D. AGENT SCHEDULE The county home agents, Mrs. Margie D.

Special Driver Permits Rare, Says McMillan “Except under one condition listed in the Safety Responsibility Law, South Carolina does not is sue a special drivers permit once a person’s drivers license has been suspended, revoked, or cancelled, “Chief Highway Commissioner Claude R. McMillan said today. The Department receives re quests for special driving permits almost daily from persons whose licenses have been suspended. Re quests come, especially from driv ers whose licence was suspended for driving while drunk, or for de merit points under the Point Sy stem. The one condition where a spec ial permit is issued is where a driver loses his license for failing to giveproof of, financial respon sibility following an accident. A specialpermit may be issued al lowing the person to operate an employer’s car or truck while act- MTZ Theatre THURSDAY & FRIDAY Alan Ladd, Ernest Borgnine, Katy Jurado The Badlanders Also Cartoon—Drinks On The Mouse SATURDAY Fred MacMurray, Joan Weldon, John Ericson Day of the Badman Also Cartoon—Casper Takes A Bow-Wow MONDAY, TUESDAY & WEDNESDAY Frank Sinatra, Tony Curtis, Natalie Wood Kings Go Forth Also Cartoon—Gaston Baby CLOVER LEAF DRIVE-IN Theatre FRIDAY & SATURDAY From Hell To Texas (Cinemascope & Color) Don Muray, Diane Varsi Added Color Cartoon—Truckland Trouble StNDAY Sing Boy Sing Tommy Sands Edmond O’Brien Added Color Cartoon—Red Skin Newberry Men In Service At Stations Around The World FORT GULICK, C. Z. (AHTN C)—Army PFC Thomas P. Sligh Jr., whose parents live at 1817 College St., recently completed three weeks of intensive jungle of the Safety Responsibility Law by filing an insurance certificate or depositing bond or cash as re quired. “However,” Mr. McMillan con tinued, “the special permit auth orizes the employee to drive his employer’s vehicle only, and only while actually working. The spec ial permit conspicuously shows this restriction for easy identifi cation by law enforcement offi cers. Proof of Safety Responsibility, as required by law, may be furn ished by the employer’s insurance company on Form SR-22, or the employer may file a $11,000 bond from any surety company or a certificate showing he has depos ited $11,000 with the State Treas urer. “All other suspensions and re vocations must be served out in full, as directed by the courts, as the Highway Department does not have the authority to over rule any court decision.” “Drivers licenses are suspended or revoked if you are found guilty of driving under the influence of intoxicants or drugs; for a second conviction on a reckless driving charge; if you are involved in an accident, fail to report it, or if you cannot furnish proof of your abil ity to pay claims, or if you fail to stop and aid anyone injured by your automobile; if 12 demerit points are charged against your drivers record for traffic law vio lations; if you are found guilty of racing or ybur automobile is used for racing on the public high ways; if you are found guilty of killing a person; or found guilty of any felony in which a motor vehicle is used; or if you become incompetent to drive,” said Mr. McMillan. “Your drivers license grants you the privilege or driving a motor vehicle on South Carolina streets and highways only as long as you do so safely,” he continued. “If you are found guilty of driving a motor vehicle after your license has been suspended or revoked, you will be fined $100 or impris oned for 30 days.” warfare training in the Canal * Zone.
