These five seniors, and the contributors deserve a sincere applause, and like the originators, I hope future classes at Newberry High will emulate their example. Jack Edward King and Linda Cassady of Newberry were mar ried at Newberry on May 14 by Rev. J. W. King Jr. FELT COMPELLED Dr. Franklin Clark Fry of the Lutheran Church in America pre pared what I assume he intended as a defense of the National Coun cil of Churches in December 1964. He said he was “compelled to it “by a virulent form of dementia americana that is endemic right now.” If you figure out a trans lation of that sentence, please let me know. I am not going into it fully now, although I intend to in the future, just as I intend to go into the Presbyterian “defense” of the NCC. But to give you an idea of the lop-sided defense Dr. Fry makes, he concludes his lengthy dissertation by reprinting an edi torial denouncing the book “None Dare Call it Treason,” although NOWHERE that I can find in his lengthy explanation of the NCC is there reference whatsoever to the book. This editorial appeared in the September 20, 1964 issue of the Minneapolis Tribune. It is just coincidence, I’m sure, that about the same time, an organization calling itself “The National Coun cil for Civic Responsibility” de nounced the book. This council soon folded after the defeat of Senator Goldwater—then it was discovered that almost half of the operating expenses of this council —$60,000—was given by the Democratic National Committee! And it is also, I am sure coinci dence, that among the “influential members” o fthis Civic Responsib ility group, was one Bishop Rue- ben H. Mueller, who was elected President of the National Council of Churches in November 1963. To show the responsibility of Bishop Mueller, I quote the following: Bishop Mueller seized upon the death of the President of the Uni ted States to hurl the now dis credited Big Lie that extremists of the Right, whom he termed as ‘fanatical and bigoted agitators who specialize in controversy for personal and financial gain* had killed John F. Kennedy. The irresponsibility of this or ganization and the inaccuracy con tained in its denunciation of the book by John Stormer were pub lished in this column several weeks ago. Can Dr. Fry explain the irres ponsibility of including this edi torial in his “explanation” of the NCC without in any way referring to it beforehand ,and without giv ing a chance for reply to the charges ? More on Dr. Fry’s dissertation at a later time. A VACATION With this issue, I am again end ing a “working” career with the Sun. I say “again” for I have strayed away several times before, and I would be the last to say I’ll never be back again. But this past year has been a trying one in many ways, and truthfully, I just need a little time to get caught up on so many things I should have been doing and haven’t had the time to do. I know it will be impossible for me to be quiet about the many things I see, read and hear and, if you like, (and if the boss agrees), this column will probably be back. Thank you all for the help and encouragement you have given me. Annual dedicated to W. K. Wynn The 1965 “Newberrian,” New berry College yearbook is dedi cated to Willard K. Wynn, assoc iate professor in English. Professor Wynn was presented the first copy of the book by Cindy Ross, editor, in assembly this morning after the dedication was read. “In appreciation to a man whose zest, exuberance, and sense of humor, but most of all whose dedication to us has been an in spiration,” the dedication reads. “In appreciation to a man who is dedicated to the principle of free dom of thought and to the respon sibility that this freedom entails; in appreciation to a man who has demonstrated to us that a man can actually live his philosophy of life; and in appreciation to one whose retirement is a loss to us; we dedicate the 1965 Newberrian to Professor Willard K. Wynn.” Professor Wynn is retiring at the end of the spring term. Loans available through FHA Edwin P. Rogers, State Direc tor, Fanners Home Administra tion, announced today the approval of a loan of $2,000 to 14 farm families of Frogmore, and sur rounding areas to construct a drainage system. According to Mr. Rogers this is the first loan of this type made in South Caro lina wherein the FHA loan will supplement $800 made available by the pooling agreement of ag ricultural conservation program cost-sharing benefits of ASCS to cover the total cost of the pro ject. The Soil Convervation Ser vice is also cooperating in this project by providing the necessary plans and engineering services. This is an excellent example, Mr. Rogers said, of the three agricul tural agencies working together to enable this low income group of farmers to adequately drain their land for increased crop produc tion and improved health condi tions. Harold B. Cook, Harold L. Pitts and Robert M. Long, County Com mitteemen for Newberry county advise that this type of loan i s also available in Newberry county provided the organization operates on a non-profit basis, control of organization is retained by farm ers and rural residents and that applicants, are unable to obtain adequate funds from other sources at rates and terms that they can be expected to fulfill.

Students usually stay two in a room and eat at the college cafeteria. Those who have rooms available or would like more information concerning the rental of rooms to students, are asked to contact L.
