The his torical period followed, during which Mrs. M. F. Bowler, the new Historian, read a most interest ing paper outlining leading events in the history of the U.S.A. from the first attempts at colonization until the present time. Truly his tory repeats itself. As she told of th^ struggle between those who contended for the rights of the states and those who believed in a power-invested central govern ment in the most tragic period of this nation, it came to the minds of all this very thing was happen ing at that moment in Mississippi when the Constitution of that state was being ruthlessly violated by the military forces of the U.S. under orders from the central gov ernment. Proceeding with business, Mrs. A. J. Briggs again announced that it was impossible for her to serve longer as Recording Secre tary: that she had brought a new book for her successor, containing the roll, and the minutes of the last meeting to be inscribed when approved. After six years of most efficient and devoted service, the chapter could only express its deepest appreciation for her fine service for so long, and regret over losing her from that office. Election for a successor to Mrs. Briggs resulted in the choice of Mrs. Louis Floyd, and her accept ance gives great satisfaction to all. i It was announced that the S. C.

Indians Win Third Game The Newberry College Indians won their third game of the sea son last week when they avenged last year’s 34-0 loss to Carson- 1 Newman by downing the Eagles 14-3. As a result of this game sev eral changes can be noted in the statistical department. First, halfback Phil Orsini, from Aiken, has taken over the rush ing leadership as a result of his 69 yards gained against Carson- Newman.. He replaced fullback Jim Cockrell, who has dropped out.of tchool. Orsini has gained 225 yards in 46 carries for an aver age of 4.9 yards per carry. Also as a result of this game Reed Charpia more than doubled his rushing yardage for the year. In the first three games this Sum merville sophomore gained only 47 yards, and last Saturday he picked up 59 yards in 8 carries. This brought his season total to 106 yards in 23 carries for an average of 4.6 yards per haul. He now ranks third behind quarter back Tom Gormon, who has pick ed up 121 yards on the ground. Fred Haley, regarded by Head Coach Kirkland as the best receiv er he has ever seen, also had his most productive night of the sea son. This Hartwell, Ga., native brabbed three aerials for a total of 53 yards. This brought his sea son total to 12 catches for 142 yards, more than half of the In dians air yardage. Orsini also took over leader ship in another department, when he scored both Newberry touch downs. This gave him four for the season, and he leads the Indians in scoring with 24 points. Newberry’s defensive line again held the opposition to less than 100 yards on the ground. The Eagles, whose backs were averag ing about 7 yards per carry, could muster! only 47 yards on the ground. This is the third team that has been held to less than 100 yards by the Indians, and it is also the third team to fail to score a touchdown against them. Lenoir Rhyne nolds the distinction of being the only club to gain more than 100 yards on the ground against the Indians, the only club to score a TD on them, and the only club to beat them. The men mostly responsible for this are men who are seldom rec ognized for their work. They are interior linemen like Tommie Witt, Travis Rowell, Jimmy Rou- ton, Jimmy Villeponteaux, Dennis Lynn, I Charles Haggard, Bill Groce, Pat Merrick, and Douglas Bell.

October 11th thru October 13th ATTEND the LAST EXCITING DAYS at the Newberry County Fair Thursday, Friday and Saturday ' $100.00 Cash Prize Each Night By LYN CONNELLY YXTHEN you have nothing bet- W ter to do with your time, it’s a lot of fun to go through some movie fan magazines of just six months ago . . . We did that the other day and had to chuckle aloud at the stories that were fea tured . . . For instance, there was a touching one about Roger Smith and his devotion to his wife, en titled “I’m Henpecked and I Love It” . . . Apparently, he didn’t love it enough because a month after the story appeared, the couple had separated and she has now filed suit for divorce. Then, of course, there were the numerous stories about tne hap piness of Liz Taylor and Eddie Fisher—and everyone knows how she punctured that myth . . . There was one telling of the great love of Janet Leigh and Tony Cur tis and the author was most in- * dignant that anyone would start separation rumors about her dear and good friends who would cer tainly have confided in her if they had marital vroubles (she is may be a marriage counsellor?), only to have the couple break up al most simultaneously with the release of the story; ' CAPITOL:—Zither fans will be delighted, as will the lovers of good music, with Rath Welcome’s latest album, “Zither Goes West” . . . Such old western favorites as ‘ San Antonio Rose,” “Tumbling Tumbleweeds,” “High Noon,” “Home on the Range,” “Mexicali Rose,” “On Top of Old Smoky,” “When It’s Springtime in the Rockies,” “Red River Valley,” and “Bury Me Not on the Lone Prairie” are beautifully arranged and played by Miss Welcome in a really fine album.
