The bands march and play in concert for mation, with judges rating them as they perform. In the preliminary contest, bands are scored only against other bands with their certifi cation. High scorers from each classification make the finals, which begin at 7:30 p.m. In the finals, all bands are scored against one criteria and the band with the highest overall score is declared State Champion regardless of class ification. Classification winners are also determined during the finals. In its nine years of exist ence this contest has created a great interest in marching bands in S. C. Band Directors from neighboring states come just to observe. Young people like competi tion and this has helped raise the standards of music and per formances in S. C. Instrumental Music departments. It has giv en band directors and their stu dents more incentive. Approximately 2000 S. C. band members are at present working hard, putting their all into the preparation for the contest. These students are dedicated, learning music, perfecting drills, working as a unit, in volves long practice sessions, which takes most of their free time.

Gallman, 834 Hunter Street, Newberry, S. C., Sept. 21, 1967 284tp BY THE WAY (Continued from page 1) sued capital with relentless zeal not alone to the ends oL the earth, but, literally, to the extremtiies of time. Take, for example, the now famous case of the Deering Milliken Company whose plant at Darlington, has been closed for more than 10 years. The NLRB never gives up even when Court decisions, recom mendations of its own attor neys and the facts of life de clare that the case has been DE FACTO closed. According to NLRB, the Darlington plant was closed in order to “chill” unionism. The real reason, however, makes little difference to the NLRB; all it wants is that the plant re-open, recognize the union, reinstate all former em ployees (after more than a decade ?) and provide them with 10 year’s back pay. Mean while, all evidence points to the fact that the case would have taken an entirely different turn had the union ordered the plant closed—either to “heat-up” un ionism or merely to satisfy the vanity of its leaders. In this case, according to Board policy the closing would have been declared an act of high states manship, in the public inter est, and the question of de creased returns would not have received even passing recogni tion. Or, if you will, take the case of J. P. Stevens, another South Carolina textile manufacturer whose entire business opera tions (with full approval and support from the NLRB) have been under constant multi-front (and back) attack by organiz ed labor over a period of sev eral years. Thus far, Stevens’ 40,000 employees have shown little interest in any organized efforts to change their “re lations” with the company. This, in spite of the millions of dollars and the tons of propa ganda which the giant Textile Workers Union has lavished on campaigns to persuade them to do otherwise! Time after time, the NLRB has ordered an “election” and time after time the workers have said “no” for an answer and it is always convenient to discover some “unfair” labor practice which justifies (?) another election. On the other hand, an “unfair” practice on the part of the union would, in the opinion of NLRB, be un thinkable and a vote foi the union (should it occur) would be allowed to stand as long as the Pyramids. It is pertinent to observe that during the intervals between elections, thecompan yis always under severe restrictions and must remain silent while at the same time making its services and facilities available to union organizers. On the other hand, the representatives of the union are permitted to engage in all manner of practices designed to down-grade the company and to make it appear as the bitter enemy of the workingman and the arch foe of the nation—un worthy, even, of a government contract. If the company at tempts to resist these practices it is charged with “conspiracy.” The NLRB does not look with favor on “conspiracy” on the part of management but (as interpreted by the NLRB) it is a recognized and approved “tool” in the hands of organ ized labor. There may have been a time when capital was so uowerful and labor so under its domina tion that something like the present NLRB was needed to restore a semblance of balance and to insure equality of op portunity. That time, if it ex isted, has passed and nothing less than a deliberately planned and executed attack upon the American system of free enter prise can justify the “swung” which has been given to the pendulum . through the current policies of the NLRB.
