The students of NHS returned to school Monday, March 22, after a long weekend due to the state teacher’s meeting which was held in Columbia. Most of the students taking bio logy are breathing a little easier now because they have finally turned in their research projects after endless hours of growing bacteria, writing, drawing illus trations, writing, making posters, writing, etc. The seniors are hurriedly read ing Pride and Prejudice^ while try ing to remember pertinent facts about Macbeth at the same time. Believe me, it’s very easy to keep the two stories straight, too. Baseball season in is full swing at Newberry High now. The first game was played Tuesday, March 2 Sat Hedgepeth Stadium. The junior class is busily pre paring for this year’s Junior-Sen ior event. They have organized themselves into various commit tees and have begun getting things together for this gala event. The band and glee club are also preparing for their district and state contests which will be com ing up in April. Judy Willingham and Ray Lom- inack will perform in chapel Fri day, March 26, after three weeks delay. In a recent election in which high school students rar. for city offices, the following were elect ed: Phil Trefsgar, mayor, and cpuncilmen Susan Frazier, Nina Sheppard, Mary Ruth Armfield, Christie Crowder D,oughts Rine hart, and Donny Davenport. Until next week remember: “Worrying is like a rocking chair. It keeps you busy, but it doesn’t get you anywhere.” Council ok’s expenditures for new plants At a special meeting Monday afternoon, City Council authorized expenditure of $120,000-plus from bond revenues for various pro jects to serve the two new indus tries locating in Newberry. These projects were: Construction of a 16-inch water line for Owens-Illinois at an esti mated cost of $26,500. Construction of a sanitary sew er line along Highway 121 and provision of sanitary sewerage service to the Owens-Illinois plant site at an estimated cost of $8480. Removal of the sanitary fill lo cated at the Owens-Illinois plant site, no estimate of cost. Purchase of all materials re quired for line and substation construction for both the Shakes peare and Owens-Illinois plants, with permission to negotiate that part of the labor required to con struct and clear right-of-way, for Shakespeare, $60,000; Owens-Il linois, $25,000. City Manager Riebe asked and received permission to work with the county and with Owens-Illi nois on re-location of the sanitary fill. Council approved change in elec tric power rates for Owens-Illinois. The only change in the old rate is that kilowatt hours used beyond 100,000 would be billed at .010 each rather than .011. Mr. Riebe said that after ex penditure of the above amounts, there would still remain in the bond revenue fund $251,000 and the only major item obligated against that amount was con struction of an oxidation pond for the Shakespeare plant. Council was notified that April 5 had been set as “Student-Gov ernment for a Day.” A mayor, members of council and depart ment heads were selected by New berry High School student body under sponsorship of the Kiwanis Club and it’s high school Key Club. These “officers” will take over government of the city for a day to learn more about the man ner in which the city is operated. Elected by their school mates were: Mayor, Phil Trefsgar; members of council, Susan Frazier, Douglas Rinehart, Nina Sheppard, Mary Ruth Armfield, Christie Crowder and Donnie Davenport. At the request of the Newberry Merchant’s Association, council authorized purchase of $1200 in parking tokens, plus $300 for con version of meters. The tokens will be bought from the city by New berry merchants, who in turn will use them in sales promotion to provide free parking for cus tomers. Councilman C. A. Shealy Jr., serving as chairman of a commit tee to investigate and make rec ommendations concerning the pos sibility of Newberry adopting the State Code as applied to Council- Manager Form of Government, re ported that his group had met and recommended taking the issue to the voters at the next primary election. One of the principal changes which would occur by adoption of the code would be ex tending and staggering term of service of council members. The committee recommended the ques tion be put to the voters whether (1) the present system should be retained; (2) four year terms be authorized (not staggered); and (3) four year staggered terms be adopted. Considerable discussion followed the recommendation and it was decided to delay action until fur ther study could be made. Other members of the committee are C. A. Dufford and Gerald B. Taylor.
