NICE GOING
One of the nicest things people
around Newberry, and especially
at the College, have done recent
ly was to “bring Steve home.” You
BACK TO FOOTBALL
I seem to wander from one sub
ject to another. I did want to con
gratulate the Newberry College
Indians for their fine victory over
will notice elsewhere in this issue
that donations totaling $1376.11
were collected through the efforts
of the Newberry College football
team. Much of this amount was
given by students and faculty at
the College; the remainder by the
good, kind-hearted citizens of
Newberry. And you gave not only
enough to “bring Steve home,”
but to allow him to make a trip
to New York to see a specialist, if
he so desires.
Steve took the chance that all
football players take, but his luck
ran out. He wasn’t so lucky as to
have a broken leg, fractured knee,
displaced collarbone or something
that simple. His injury was a
broken neck and a resulting para
lysis.
As a result of your kindness,
Steve was made extremely happy
for a few days and that, perhaps,
is all we could do to show him
that we appreciated what he did
for Newberry College; that we re
gretted the tragic accident which
marred his life; and that we still
remembered him.
The football team thanks you, I
thank you, and I am sure that
Steve will retain his homecoming
visit among his most pleasant
memories for the remainder of his
life.
Report Is Given
On Peterson Fund
Troy State and to remind you of
the Eastern Carolina game which
will be playe'd at Setzler Field
Saturday night.
I understand the Newberry
High Bulldogs were defeated by
Chester last week. This Friday
night they will play Eau Claire in
Columbia. Next week they will be
home again.
UNUSUAL NUMBER
This is something unusual, and
a situation you aren’t likely to
find anywhere else. At Gallman
High School there are 680 stu
dents. Nothing so unusual about
that, except that the school is
bursting at the seams and will un
til the new addition is completed.
Of that 680, though, exactly 340
—half of them are boys, the other
half girls.
FOOTBALL TALK
We sort of got off the beaten
track with our football last week
end. We make a deal with our
little girls who love football—
mostly because of the halftime
band performances—to take them
to the high school games and
leave them home for college
games.
Last week, Newberry was play
ing Chester; we decided that was
a little far-off for little girls to
attend a night game. We consid
ered Mid-Carolina, but figured
there would be no place to sit, and
standing throughout a game
wasn’t very appealing; so final
ly, in consultation with our neigh
bors, Jimmy and Gay Davenport,
with whom we usually attend the
games, we ended up with a deci
sion to go to Clinton. Our little
girls, incidentally, have adopted
their new neighbors and would
spend all their time next door if
they were allowed to do so.
But back to the game—at least
we saw a winner. Clinton gave its
homecoming crowd a good game
and defeated Union by some two
or three touchdowns.
I mention this game for a par
ticular reason, though, and that
is to commend two Newberry
boys for the fine job they are do
ing with the Clinton high school
band. Being without a band direc
tor this year, and refusing to pay
an exhorbitant sum to hire one,
Clinton made arrangements with
Prof. Charlie Pruitt and Newber
ry College to have two band stu
dents come to Clinton for a couple
of hours each day to work with
the Clinton high and junior high
bands. Ralph Gilliam is train
ing the junior high band and as
sisting Walter Leopard with the
senior band. While it is a small
group, it performed well Friday
night and the young band leaders
have done a fine job, considering
the small amount of time they
have had to work with the stu
dents.
Also during halftime at the
game, the Union high band put
on one of the nicest performances
I’ve seen for a high school group.
The lights on the field were turn
ed off and the band played as
majorettes held flaming batons,
the little green lights on band in
struments glowed through the
dark, and fireworks filled the sky
with color. This performance re
ceived a tremendous ovation from
the crowd.
LAWS NOT FOR ALL
The Greenville News Monday
editorialized, very appropriately,
on the fact that the names of five
men arrested by federal and state
game wardens for violating game
laws are being kept secret.
You no doubt have read of this
affair. It happened in Barnwell
County, “seat of much of South
Carolina’s government,” accord
ing to the News. Three of the
men were reported to be state of
ficials. The offense was shooting
doves over a baited field. Each of
the five posted a $25 bond, which
they forfeited, as much as admit
ting guilt. The arresting officers
have refused to divulge their
names “on orders from higher
* *
up.
The News says: “Secrecy of ar
rest records is bad enough when
it is maintained for all offenders.
It affords protection for the high
and the mighty and opens the way
for the persecution of those less
powerful.
“But it is even worse when the
law is administered in one way for
the powerful and another for the
weak.”
My only comment about this is
that while a law was evidently
violated, it is a miracle that the
five gentlemen were arrested a;
all, since they reportedly were
state officials. Even so this is not
the disgrace that the non-applica
tion of traffic laws is. Almost any
patrolman, if he spoke honestly,
would tell you that not all traffic
law violators are. arrested. And it
is not their fault—again it is the
fault of the “higher ups” who
disapprove of arresting persons of
influence. This failure to arrest,
especially persons driving under
the influence of intoxicants, could,
and probably has, caused a number
of deaths on our highways.
When the clamps are tightened
on drunk drivers, and when per
iodic license renewal examina
tions are required, many of the
accidents that occur on South
Carolina highways will be avoid
ed.
Paris Now With
Genera] Life;
Leaves Calhoun
A.P. Faris, who has served as
vice-president in charge of the
Newberry Regional Office of Cal
houn Life Insurance Company,
has resigned that position to ac
cept an appointment as Vice-pres
ident of General Life Insurance
Company of America, with home
offices in Columbia.
General Life is a newly organ
ized company and plans to sell all
types of life insurance, which will
carry many new features never
before offered in regular life in
surance policies. Faris will orga
nize and be in charge of the com
bination division. Many prominent
South Carolinians took part in
forming of General Life. J. W.
Henderson of Newberry is on the
advisory board and Yasser Esling
er, prominent Columbian, is pres
ident. A. P. Faris, Jr. has been
employed by the Company as
home office underwriter in the
combination division.
Mr. Faris is now preparing pol
icies to offer to the public, and he
plans to open Newberry as one of
the first towns along with Colum
bia, Whitmire, Union, Clinton,
Laurens, Greenwood, Gaffney,
Chester, Rock Hill, Anderson,
Greenville and Spartanburg in the
upper part of the state.
Succeeding Mr. Faris in charge
of the Calhoun Life Regional
Home office In Newberry is A. F.
Ellis. This office celebrated a for
mal opening in its new building on
College Street the first of this
month.

the beautiful chrysanthemums at
Shealy’s Hillcrest Florist are now

Gifted Child Is
Subject Of AAUW
Chapter Program
The October meeting of the
Newberry Branch of the Ameri
can Association of University Wo
men was held at the home of Mrs.
Paul Heisey on Saturday after
noon. The attendance was grati
fying.
Mrs. F. Scott Elliott, the presi
dent, welcomed three new mem
bers: Mrs. Adrian Summer, Fur
man University; Mrs. John Riser,
Columbia College; and Miss Jean
nette Miller, Limestone College.
She also welcomed Miss Sadie
Bowers and Mrs. Grady Cooper
as visitors.
Mrs .Elliott, Mrs. Heisey, Mrs.
John Guenther and Mrs. Furman
Sterling reported on the South
Carolina Division Fall Board meet
ing which they attended in Co
lumbia recently. At that meeting
the Newberry branch was offi
cially recognized.
The program leader for the af
ternoon was Miss Pearle Stock-
man who, in an able manner, dis
cussed the plight of the gifted
child in today s educational pro
gram. She said that these child
ren are sadly neglected and since
the focus has been on the special
and handicapped child recently,
the pendulum needs to swing tow
ard the gifted.
These gifted children may be
identified by verbal ability, large
vocabulary, proficiencv in lan
guage, keen observation, liking
for books, interest in cause and
effect, ability to read and ability
in mathematics and the sciences,
Miss Stockman said. “The world
needs their abilities and the
schools should identify them and
steer them into educational cen
ters where their greatest poten
tialities may be realized,” she con
tinued.
Mission Studies
At St. Paul’s
St. Paul’s Lutheran Church an
nounces that Rev. Benjamin T.
Bedenbaugh, professor at the
Lutheran Theological Seminary in
Columbia, will be speaker for mis
sion services beginning Sunday
morning, Oct. 26 and continuing
through Wednesday ni£ht. The
Sunday morning service will be at
10:00 a. m., and night services,
Sunday through Wednesday, at
7:30 p. m. Topics will be “Our
Father Who Art in Heaven”;
“Thy Kingdom Come”; “Our Dead
liest Enemy”; “The Church’s Mes
sage”; and “What are you Living
For?”
Lay visitors are visiting the
families of the congregation this
week. It is urged that every mem
ber of the congregation avail him
self of the opportunity offered in
this mission. Neighboring congre
gations and friends are cordially
invited.
Rev. Bedenbaugh is a graduate
of Newberry College and of the
Southern Theological Seminary.
He has served as missioner for
many churches throughout the
state.
A report made by Bobby Rowe,
Newberry College football star, on
behalf of all members of the In
dian team, shows that $1376.11
was collected for the Steve Pet
erson Homecoming Fund.
Of this amount, the team spent
$338.19 for expenses of the trip.
The remainder, $1037.11 was for
warded on October 21 to Steve.
Expenses of the trip included
$325 for transportation of Steve
and four members of his family
from Tampa, Florida, to Colum
bia; $8.19 to Nichols studib; $2.00
for flowers, $3.00 for gasoline for
trip to Columbia. The Petersons
were guests of Whit’s Motor
Court during their four-day stay
in Newberry.
Two weeks before the Home
coming Game on October 11, the
college football team decided to
collect funds to grant one of
Steve’s two wishes, to return to
Newberry for the Homecocming
game in what would have been his
senior year. Steve suffered a brok
en neck playing football for New
berry two years ago and has been
paralyzed since that time. A can
vass of the Newberry business
district, a special program over
radio station WKDK, collections
at high school and college football
games and donations from college
students and staff soon boosted
the total amount donated to over
$1300.
The second of Steve’s wishes was
to make a trip to New York to
see a doctor who had treated the
famous baseball player, Roy Cam-
panella. Campanella suffered a
broken neck in an automobile acci
dent.
The check for $1037.92 was sent
to Steve to help defray expenses
of the trip to New York, or for
whatever purpose he desires.
The football team extended
grateful appreciation to Newber-
rians for their cooperation in the
effort to “bring Steve home.”

Indians Face
Strong Foe In
Saturday Game
The Newberry College Indians
carrying a 3-2 mark will take on
another strong North State Con
ference foe, Eastern Carolina Col
lege Pirates of Greenville, N. C.
East Carolina College carries a
5-1 mark, the only loss to Presby
terian. Game time is 8 p.tn. at
Setzler Field in Newberry.
The Indians are very weak on
pass defense and coach Kirkland
says the passing threats of
quarterback Ralph Zerhing are
very potent. Eastern Carolina is
a dangerous team and each play
is a touchdown attempt. They are
strictly a wide open ball club us
ing flankers and split ends. Zehr-
ing and right halfback Bob Perry
will be the chief Pirate threats.
The whipcord passing arm of
Ralph Zehring is rated as the
best in the North State Confer
ence and Perry is on top of the
loop’s fastest runners.
Vernon Prather, freshman quar
terback for the Newberry Indians
is steadily improving with each
game and during four games has
tossed three touchdown passes.
Prather will be backed up by hard
running fullback Joe Coviello,
agile halfback Bobby Rowe and
powerful halfback Richard Sea-
strunk.
Newberry still is without the
services of tackles Gordon Darby
and John Temples, halfback Bob
Yarnall, guard Mickey Stevens,
and ace quarterback Horace Tur-
beville.
Kirkland said “The game with
East Carolina this week should be
interesting; they use a wide open
attack. This game will be a real
test for us. We are capable of
winning .”
The Indians have yet to open
in Little Three Conference and
the remaining schedule reads:
November 8, Elon at Burlington,
N.C.; November 15, Wofford at
Newberry, November 27, Presby
terian at Clinton.

Farm Operation
(The following article appeared in
the October issue of “Milk Time’
published b y Edisto Farms
Dairy.)
Hunter II. Brown of Glen Echo
Farms in Newberry County, is
EFD producer for the month of
October. Mr. Brown originally
hails from Wadesboro, North Car
olina where he was born fifty-five

and 1T5 head o^ cows and heifers.
Glen Echo has been producing
milk for Edisto Farms Dairy
about eight years and is currently
producing between 800 and 900
pounds a day.
Mr. Brown is certainly proud of
one fact—the fact that Glen Echo
is one of the oldest farms in the
state of South Carolina and that
Glen Echo has bred every cow
right on the place. Over the years
Glen Echo has bred and produced
some of the finest Guernseys
throughout the South and in 1953
Mr. Brown sold a Guernsey cow
and bull at a sale for $5,000. Glen
Echo is ably managed by Bobby
Duncan.
Mr. Brown stated that he often
reminisced about how fortunate
he was in the depression in 1929.

Invitations have been issued to
leaders of civic and service organ

Traffic Safety Analysis Meeting
at the Community Hall on October
27 at 7:30 p.m., sponsored by the
City of Newberry in cooperation
with the South Carolina State
Highway Department.
Guest speaker for the occasion
will be Sgt. B. F. Fallaw of the
S. C. Highway Department.
According to information re
ceived from Jesse A. Rutledge,
director of public relations and
safety education of the SCHD, the
National Safety Counefi has pre
pared a written analysis of the
1957 annual inventory of traffic
safety activities in Newberry. The
Council has requested the High
way Department, as state coordin
ator,* to make a formal presenta
tion of the analysis at a publie
meeting of the city officials and
civic leaders.
Mr. Rutledge states that the an
alysis represents the best think
ing and experience to date in acci
dent prevention activities. “Fol
lowing concepts set out by the
White House Conference on Traf
fic Safety, it discusses Accident
records, traffic engineering, po
lice traffic supervision, traffic
courts, school traffic safety edu
cation, public traffic safety edu
cation and community safety or
ganization,” Mr. Rutledge said.
He continued'* It is of further
interest that the Analysis incor
porates the recommendations of
national professional organiza
tions in the field, such as the In
stitute of Traffic Engineers, In
ternational Association of Chiefs
of Police, American Bar Associa
tion and others. It compares the
performance of Newberry with
that of other cities of similar size
and problems. Perhaps, most im
portant, it offers specific recom
mendations based on successful ac
cident prevention experience,
whereby Newberry can improve
its accident prevention program.”
Sgt. Fallaw will present the an
alysis. A large group is expected
to attend.
