Up in Alaska’s C.<ok Inlet
The week of August 14 was
a big one for the South Caro
lina tourist industry. Several
significant annou ncement'S
were made and an important
trip was undertaken—all with
a view toward our State’s at
tractiveness as a tourist mecca
and convention center.
In Columbia, two announce
ments revealed separate plans
for a 300-room Statler-Hilton
complex near the new Carolina
Coliseum project and a major
convention and trade-show
center at the State Fair
grounds.. Just a few days ear
lier, expansion plans were an
nounced for the Town House
Motel complex in downtown
Columbia. These are tangible
examples of the interest by
private enterprise in furthering
the State’s tourist and conven
tion potentials.
August 18 was also a day
of signal importance. More
than ‘JO South Carolinians
from various walks of life
hoarded a charter jet for Can
ada, whore they would spend
nearly a full week touring
sites of interest at Montreal,
Ottawa, and Toronto. The ob
jective: to drum up Canadian
tourist trade for the Palmetto
State. All persons on the trip
were paying their own way,
taking their own valuable
time to work in travel booths
and attend travel seminars,
acting as ambassadors for the
State of South Carolina. There
these days everything sterns tc
be going Union Oil’s way. At
last count, the company hook
ed an interest in four of the
six oil fields that have been
uncovered under the waters of
the inlet. Offshore develop
ment platforms alnadv are
busily at work on two, while
massive rigs are slated to be
gin probing the other pair be
fore the year’s out. From each
of these floating mongers,
I'ninn and its partner- are
likely to drill 32 to 1 Swell.".
is no question that these trips
are effective. Since instituting
these visits north of the bor
der, Canadian tourist traffic to
South Carolina has quadrupled!
Another note of importance
is the announcement that Bob
Hickman, a Columbia newsman
and former executive staff
member in the Governor’s of
fice, will take over the direc
torship of the Parks, Recrea
tion, and Tourism Commission.
The week of August 14 will
be remembered as an import
ant period in South Carolina’s
emergence as a healthy com
petitor for the national tour
ist and convention trade.
Kinard attends
school meeting
Headmasters and other top
administrative personnel from
33 member schools of the S. C.
Independent School Association
held their second Headmaster’s
Conference on Tuesday at the
Wade Hampton Academy at
Orangeburg.
Discussions of academic sit
uations encountered by the
private, college preparatory
schools in the context of their
rapidly increasing enrollment
were featured at the Confer
ence. When the Conference last
met in August, 1966 there were
only 24 member schools in the
Association. In the past year
both the number of students
and new physical plants of As
sociation schools have more
than doubled, according to Tom
Turnipseed, Executive Secre
tary of the Association. Some
of the subjects discussed at the
Tuesday meeting were: Public
relations at an Independent
School, The S. C. Independent
Schools Athletic Conference,
Curriculum Development, Ad
missions Testing and Accredi
tation.
Turnipseed said that the As
sociation has been most for
tunate in recently gaining the
services of several additional
highly qualified headmasters.
Most of the men newly ap
pointed to the Association
schools came from administra
tive level positions in indepen
dent and public education. The
present success of independent
schools in this area, as well
as their tremendous growth
potential, was cited as one of
the chief features which at
tracted the new headmasters to
the Association..
Taking a leading role in the
Conference was Dr. James C.
Kinard, President of the New
berry Academy.
