Young South Carolina Designers Win Honors
-
SOUTH CAROLINA BOYS who designed and built these
sleek model cars for the 1960 Fisher Body Craftsman s Guild
model car competition have won first state awards of $150.
The upper car was entered by Wade Barrineau of Georgetowib
The lower car was built by Donald White of Mt. Pleasant.
Checks May Be
Delayed In Mails
Because the majority of delays
in delivery of benefit payment
checks are from causes beyond its
control, the Veterans Administra
tions is asking that inquiries con
cerning non-receipt of checks be
withheld for at least two days af
ter the date they are normally de
livered.
“Over the years it has been our
experience that weather, delays in
train or airline schedules and other
causes entirely beyond VA con
trol constitute the main factors
affecting the timely delivery of
benefit payment checks to vet
erans and their dependents,” Hugh
H. Henderson, contact officer of
the Columbia VA Regional Office,
said today.
By waiting for at least two post
office working days after the nor
mal date of receiving their checks
before making inquiry of the VA
as to the delay, veterans and
their dependents will help the VA
prevent much unnecessary work
stoppage on other vital veterans’
benefits actions to make searches
for checks already in the mails,
Mr. Henderson explained.
After this reasonable wait, in
quiries concerning late checks can
be made to the contact representa
tives at the VA Regional Office
in Columbia, or at any of the VA
offices or hospital over the state
who are in daily contact with the
Regional Office.

NOTEBOOK:
Clannish: Unlike many spe
cies of waterfowl, the Canada
Goose is “family” minded. As a
general rule, two birds mate for
life and the family usually sticks
together. When one bird dies, it
is not unusual for its survivor
to stand guard over the fallen
mate for days, even weeks. Even
tually, like humans, a widowed
bird may select another partner,
usually by the next mating sea
son although some birds never
remate.

Deadly: Rabies, that dread
disease that we associate for the
most part with dogs and foxes,
was recorded as early as 1300
B.C. All types of warm-blooded
animals, including man, cattle
and the various forms of wild
life—are susceptible to the “mad
ness.” Rabies is caused by a
highly infectious virus which at
tacks the brain and the spinal
cord. When a rabies-infected ani
mal bites a “victim” the virus is
transmitted through the saliva of
the diseased animal. The Pasteur
series of injections represent the
only method of combating rabies,
but to be successful, these
“shots” must be taken as soon
as possible following exposure
and continued over a period of
14 to 21 days. These shots are
successful because they block
off the virus from the nervous
system. The shots are useless if
treatment is delayed until after
the virus has begun its deadly
work on the nervous system.

Newberry Boys
Attend Camp
Eighty-nine boys from through
out South Carolina returned home
Saturday after a week of train
ing and recreation at the 14th an
nual Boys Forestry Camp operat
ed by the S. C. State Commission
of Forestry held at Camp Forest,
Cheraw State Park, according to
State Forester Chas. T. Flory.
One boy from each county was
selected by his County Ranger to
attend camp. In addition, 24 FFA
boys and 24 4-H boys attended as
guests of the Forestry Commis
sion.
Those from Newberry enjoying
the trip were Joey Bishop, Rt. 4,
Newberry; Luther Wheeler, Rt. 3,
Prosperity; and Rooney Floyd, Rt.
3, Newberry.
During the week the boys re
ceived training in forestry, in
cluding timber marking and esti
mating, forest insect and disease
detection and control tree identi
fication, and fire prevention and
control. Field trips included a tour
of Sand Hills State Forest, Che
raw State Park and the Socono
Products Corporation of Harts-
ville. Instructors included repre
sentatives of the Extension Serv
ice, Clemson School of Forestry,
S. C. Wildlife Resources Depart
ment, forest machinery manufac
turers and forest industry.
Leisure hours were filled with
supervised sports such as soft-
ball, volleyball, horseshoes, and
swimming.
“The camp was designed to
give a better understanding of the
value of South Carolina forests
and how to plant, protect and per
petuate those forests so they can
be of more value in the future,”
Mr. Flory said.

Robert Morton,, 23, of Nor
wood, N. C., driver of a truck
which was struck by a Southern
Railway Train at Pomaria July
18 and. died in the flaming wreck
age of his vehicle “came to his
death . . . due to his own negli
gence,” a coroner’s jury ruled Fri
day.
The jury heard testimony from
the engineer-fireman who was at
the controls of the locomotive,
from another eyewitness and
from a highway patrolman who
investigated the accident before
rendering its verdict in an in
quest conducted by Coroner
George R. Summer at the New
berry County courthouse.
Jack Koon of Pomaria testi
fied that he was leaving a carpen
ter shop about 60 feet from the
crossing on Highway 176 in Po
maria and saw the truck ap
proaching the railroad and about
the same time heard the train
horn and bell and the crossing
bell sound.
Koon testified that the Ford
voted at a special meeting to split
’ Kendall shares two for one. Presi
dent Richard R. Higgins announc
ed that following the stockholders
meeting the Kendall directors had
voted toincrease the dividends
payable in Sep f ember by 20% over
Kendall’s regular quarterly divi
dend paid since 1953. The Kendall
Company is a major producer of
surgical dressings and woven and
nonwoven fabrics.
Based on the number of shares
outstanding after the stock split,
the new rate of 30c per share will
be paid on September 15 to stock
holders of record on August 30.
The Kendall directors also voted
to pay the regular quarterly divi
dend on preferred stock of $1.12%
on October 1 to stockholders of
record on September 15. Mr. Hig
gins said that the dividend action

dump truck, loaded with hot as
phalt, was traveling about 40 to
50 miles an hour. He said the
driver apparently “did not know
what happened to him.”
The witness said that he ran to
the locomotive, which was off
the track along with eight hopper
cars of coal, got a fire extinguish
er and made an effort to rescue
Morton from the smashed truck.
Koon said the truck was struck
in the center of the door on the
driver’s side and expressed the
opinion that Morton was dead be
fore his truck caught fire.
L. C. Shaw of Hodges, engineer-
fireman, said he was at the con
trols of the train when the acci
dent occurred, sitting at the right-
hand side of the locomotive, the
side from which the truck ap
proached.
He said the train was traveling
between 25 and 28 miles an hour
and that he applied the emergency
brakes and sounded the locomo
tive’s horn and bell when it ap
peared that the truck was not at
tempting to stop.
Shaw said the blinking lights
and warning bell at the crossing
were automatically actuated when
the train was 1,800 feet from
the crossing. He said the warn
ing devices were operating. He
said it appeared that the driver
made no attempt to stop his ve
hicle and that it was impossible
to stop the train in time to avoid
the collision.
Shaw said that the truck caught.
fire immediately after the impact° oc . le ^'
and that he got a fire extinguish
er and went to help the others who
had gathered and were attempt
ing to rescue the driver from the
truck.
Patrolman D. E. Abrams, who
investigated the accident, testi
fied as to the physical character
istics of the crossing and the
highway leading to it. He said
he found no skid marks made by
the truck.
was “based on the increased
strength of the company and our
appraisal of the potential of our
business.”
“In the years since 1953,” Mr.
Higgins said, “the Company has
made substantial progress in
building a stronger, more diversi
fied and more durable business,
which now offers a breadth of op-
“The number of men being in
ducted through the Selective Serv
ice local-hoards isn’t what it used
to be, bnt that doesn’t mean the
Newberry County board office
isn’t busy.”
In these words, J. D. Caldwell,
^Chairman of Local Board No^ 36
for Newtjerry County summed up
the draft situation as it is today.
The county draft quota is current
ly small and so is the nation’s quo
ta, but that is only one phase of
the work performed by the board
members and the clerk. They have
to register young men when they
reach 18 years of age which adds
to the total of 5299 names now on
file in the county. There is the
ever present task of classification
and reclassification which involves
the selection of men to pursue
mady^dther occupations that the

Comparing 1953 with the pres
ent, Mr. Higgins said that in the
interim Kendall's cash flow from
earnings and depreciation charges
had increased by more than a
third, that the Company’s net in-

The law requires all males to
register for Selective Service
within five days after they be
come 18. They cannot be inducted
however, until they are 22 under
the current operating procedures
—unless they are volunteers or
delinquents. Prospective selectees
may volunteer any time after
they become 17. Persons can be
classified as delinquents any
time they fail to comply with any
section of the law. Failure to com- !
ply with the law could result is a
punishment of not more than five
years imprisonment or not more
than $10,000 fine or both.
Mr. Caldwell emphasized the
importance which now has been
placed on the timely reporting of
all changes in occupational, mari
tal, family, dependency, military, |
and physical status by each reg
istrant. The local board chairman
also stressed the necessity of
keeping the board advised of any __
change in address since a large
number of reported delinquencies
originate with the failure to per
form this simple act. A registrant
is now required to submit any
change in his status whatsoe^ a
to his local board within 10 uafs
after it occurs, or in those cas38
where the board mails him a re T
quest for information, he is given
10 days in which to reply.
