BY THE WAY
(Continued from page 1)
DISENCHANTMENT
Less than 20 years ago, the
Republican party nominated
General Dwight D. Eisenhower
as its candidate for President.
General Ike was admired and
respected by almost everyone—
but even so, there were many
in South Carolina who could
not bring themselves to vote
for him on a Republican ticket,
so an “Independents for Eisen
hower” move was started.
The picture had changed
fantastically by the time Barry
Goldwater was carrying the
Republican banner. Many folks
learned that the earth would
continue to turn if they voted
Republican and Goldwater car
ried this county by a large
majority.
Last year, local Republicans
produced a candidate for State
Senate—and that candidate
was elected. Now the Repub
licans, locally, have nominated
a full slate of candidates for
city offices.
To me, this indicates a con
tinued disenchantment on the
part of the voters with the Nat
ional Democratic party. I do
not feel that most of the city
candidates are running as a
protest against the national
administration, of course — I
think most of them have other
reasons for running; however,
the fact that they are running
on the Republican ticket is an
indication that people are
finally beginning to realize
that the “party of my grand
father” has left the principles
in which grandfather believed,
and while those in power in
the Republican party may not
offer much better, they feel
there might be more hope for
a return to saneness than there
is with the Democrats.
Only time will tell.
G. R. Puckett

George Russell Puckett, 86,
of Whitmire, died at a Colum
bia hospital after a lingering
illness.
Among his survivors are a
son, John D. Puckett and a
sister, Mrs. Fannie Smith, of
Newberry.
Funeral services were held
Monday at Whitaker Funeral
Home. Interment was in Whit

Newberry guard
units rated
superior
Columbia — Units of the
South Carolina National Guard
scored a near perfect record
during their recently completed
Annual Field Training (AFT)
periods at seven military in
stallations throughout the
south. Of the 100 units complet
ing AFT, 92 received “super
ior” ratings. The remaining
seven units barely missed
reaching the superior category
but were declared “excellent.”
One unit was not evaluated dur
ing its AFT period. All New
berry units received Superior
ratings.
State Adjutant General
Frank D. Pinckney said this
year’s ratings were the highest
recorded during his- nine-year
tenure of office. All ratings
were established by a team of
officers acting on behalf of Lt.
Gen. Louis W. Truman, Com
manding General of THIRD U.
S. Army.
Ratings were determined on
the basis of efficiecy in train
ing, administration and supply,
and reflected personnel achiev-
ments in leadership, morale,
initiative, and unit pride.
“The ratings received this
summer reflect the quality of
the National Guard soldier in
South Carolina today,” General
Pinckney said. “These young
men have unusual ‘desire’ and
their attitudes toward their du
ties reflect deep convictions
about the sacrifices being made
by thousands of Americans in
Vietnam. They are determined
to prepare for whatever role is
required of them,” he added.
The largest contingent of S.
C. Guardsmen, 74 units contain
ing over 7,000 members, attend
ed AFT exercises at Ft. Stew
art, Ga. Specialized training
was given the other 24 units at
Anniston Army Depot, Annis
ton, Ala.; Ft. Bragg, N. C.;
Tobyhanna, Pa.; Ft. Bennng,
Ga.; Ft. Gordon, Ga.; and Co
lumbia. The Palmetto Military
Academy (PMA), South Car
olina National Guard’s state
officer candidate school, was
the last unit to complete AFT.
Thirty-two cadets received dip
lomas August 4, at Ft. McClell
an, Ala., and were commission
ed second lieutenants.
The South Carolina National
Guard is composed of over
10,000 officers and men in 77
South Carolina cities.

Participates
in session
at Harvard
Mrs. Emma Julia Irons,
science teacher, at Newberry
High school, returned home
last week from Wellesley Col
lege, Wellesley, Mass, where
she has been a participant in
a briefing session on Harvard
Project Physics for 6 weeks.
Harvard Project Physics, a
group of scientists and High
school teachers from all parts
of the country, is developing
the instructional materials
needed for a new kind of phy
sics course designed for sec
ondary schools. The course is
intended to appeal to a wide
variety of students, from the
science-oriented to the science-
shy, and to the large and grow
ing number of students who
are now taking no physics at
all.
Newberry High School is
very fortunate that Mrs. Irons
was selected as one of 41
teachers from all parts of the
U. S. and Canada to partici
pate in this briefing session.
During the session she attended
courses in the content, meth
ods, and materials of Harvard
Project Physics and in the
History and Philosophy of
Science. The work constituted
the equivalent of six semester
hours of graduate in-service
credit.
Mrs. Irons received her A.B.
degree from Newberry College,
her master of education degree
from the University of South
Carolina and has done graduate
work at the University of North
Carolina.
During the coming school ses
sion, Newberry High will be
furnished the preliminary final
version of the texts, laboratory
readers as well as many films,
transparencies and much of the
laboratory equipment especially
designed for the course.
Financial support for the pro
ject is currently being provided
by the Carnegie Corporation,
the Ford Foundation, the Na
tional Science Foundation and
the U. S. Office of Education.
