Harmon made this report ’ to
place emphasis on the forthcoming

federal gasbline tax refunds on
gasoline used for farming pur
poses.
“October 2 is the deadline for
filing for the federal gasoline tax
refunds,” Harmon Stated. “Farm

for each gallon of gasoline used for
farming purposes during the per
iod of Julv 1, 1961 through June
30, 1962.”
South Carolina farmers, in ad
dition to receiving a federal gaso

in state tax refunds last year. The
state tax refund is 6 cents per gal
lon. Figures are not available on
the amount of federal taxes re
funded to state farmers, Harmon
stated.
“‘Farm Bureau worked hard to
get legislation passed so that far
mers would receive these refunds,”
the county Farm Bureau stated.
“Almost every farmer takes ad
vantage of the program.
“However, farmers could receive
more money in refunds each year
by filing on time and with forms
properly completed,” he continued.
“Farmers could have received an
additional $27,382.10 last year in
state tax refunds had they filed on
schedule.”
Farmers of Laurens County re
ceived $29,419.24 in state tax re
funds and Saluda County farmers
received $26,146.65, Harmon re
ported.

ments in forest fire prevention and
control, reforestation, and forest

ty landowners. During the past

assistance with Forestry manage
ments practices. In addition, over
313,000 board feet of saw-timber
and nearly 315 standard cords of
pulpwood were selectively mark
ed for cutting. Over 826,000 trees
were planted in the county dur
ing the past planting season.-
The Board commended the per
formance of fire control personnel
in the county and expressed confi
dence that a high level of perform
ance would be maintained. The

their choice of one of four planned
tours of the Greater Columbia
Area as follows:
Tour No. 1—Visit Horsman

and will have an opportunity to'

opportunity,” a Chamber of Com

SPEERS STREET PTA
HONORS TEACHERS
The Speers Street P.T.A. met
Thursday evening with President
B. M. Montgomery in charge.
Each teacher wms presented a
lovely corsage by the PTA, and
introduced to guests by R. E.
Beck, superintendent of elementary
schools. Parents were invited to
visit their child’s classroom to oet-
ter acquaint parent, teacher and
child.
Programs for the year will be
based on an appraisal of the ef
fectiveness of the Speers Street
Elementary school system. Nurs
ery facilities, with entertainment,
will be furnished for future meet
ings.
Sometimes the caravan crept along for hours in low gear. It
took 17 days to go 1,066 milesJ This is the road near Loreto*
M illions of years ago nature
fashioned a proving ground
for trucks that man can never
duplicate. Today it is known as
the Baja (bah' hah) California
Peninsula, Mexico.
These pictures give you only a
bare idea of the place. The road
is fine for 140 miles below the
U.S. border. Then the beating
begins. Rocks and hard-baked
ruts bang, jab and jerk the trucks
from stem to stem. Loose sand
makes them struggle and strain.
Dust chokes them. Heat roasts
them. Rivers drench them.
The Baja Run took this Chev
rolet truck caravan 17 days to go
the 1,066 miles.
All the trucks performed magnifi
cently. Not one was forced to
drop out because of mechanical
difficulty.
Trucks that can take this kind of
beating can take on your tough
est truck jobs. Come in now and
see tough quality-built ’63 Chev
rolet trucks with all their new im
provements.

'"pWO of radio’s all-time greats,
veterans of 40 years of broad
casting, made their entry into TV
last fall with the premiere of ABC-
TV’s “Calvin and the Colonel,”
animated cartoon series . . . While
radio was responsible for the suc
cess of Freeman Gosden and
Charles Correll, it’s just as true
that Gosden and Correll were re
sponsible for the popularity of
radio in its early days as an enter
tainment medium in America . ..
In 1929, when their “Amos ’n
Andy” serial bowed as a national
network feature, and for years
afterward it seemed that the en
tire nation halted in its tracks to
gather eagerly at its radio sets
to tune in for 15 minutes on the
latest developments in the lives
of Amos, Andy, the Kingfish, and
Lightnin’.
In “Calvin and the Colonel,’*
the two comedians star as the
voices of a pair of humanized ani
mals—Correll as Calvin, a bear,
and Gosden as the Colonel, a fox
... The pair met in 1920 in Dur
ham, N.C.... For several years
the two men worked together,
staging amateur shows in scores
of cities and living in Chicago
during the summer “off” season
... Their first radio appearance
took place in New Orleans in 1920
on one of the first experimental
radio stations in the country.
In 1926, they wen*: on the air as
“Sam ’n Henry” aid when their
contract expired two years later,
they found the station owned the
title of the show so they moved
over to another station and changed
the name of their show to “Amos
’n Andy” ... Except for a short
vacation they took in the summer
of 1934, they were on the air con
tinuously, twice each night, from
1929 to the time they discon
tinued their 15-minute strip in
1943 .. * Later that year they re
turned as a weekly half-hour and
continued until 1960.
