• • by the way By DORIS A. SANDERS AGREEMENT I don’t often find myself in agreement with Councilmen Shealy and McCuteheon, but I must admit that I agree with one of their actions at council meeting Tuesday night. A Resolution was proposed commending the merchants in thebusiness district for under taking to improve the down town shopping area. This was fine, except that the Resolu tion pledged the city’s support “to the full extent of its re sources” or words to that ef fect. It seems to me that this could easily put the city in a bind and 1 believe the council- men were quite right in putting a period after the word “sup port” and deleting the remain der of the sentence. VOTE OF A KIND When I wrote last week that teachers of Newberry county had not been given an opportunity to vote on whether they wished the S. ( Educa tion Assn, merged with the Palmetto Education Asm, 1 had talked with .Mrs Ruth flipp. president of the local associat.on. She mdiented that ">om"thrng" was in tho wind lent that she was not a! lib- i ■ r! y to diM'US'- it with me. 1 have had no further dir-ct uord from officials of the io- ial association; however, I have learned through the giapevme that what happened wa~ that teacher-; were indiv idually polled to get their re- aetion to the merger. This, of course, is a very unfair way to do the thing. I had previously been told that Newberry’s delegates had al ready decided to vote in favor of the merger. Em afraid there aren’t too many twchers who would risk "going against the machine" when they know the vote is recorded by their names. 1 under-tand that at least one school faculty voted solidly against it, however, much to tin chagrin ( > f ee rtain pa rt i • ■ s. 1 i; ilive n 11 1 (ira wha t the It ical Veto was It would he my g Ur.-. - 'hat in ivlug to V o t (. aS 111 e \ did the majority took the rUa\ w ay I m t.
