Senn, professor of horticulture and head of this department at Clemson University, displays the southern region and national L. M. Ware awards he received for a dis- ;inguished teaching career in horticulture. Dr. Senn received the regional honor (right) in February, and the national aw ard this month. The awards are designed to encourage and recognize excellence in the teaching of horticulture, and in gen eral services to the horticultural industry as a teacher. (Clemson Newsphoto). Four students get degrees Four Newberry county resi dents were among 30 students receiving degrees in ceremon ies concluding the 1968 sum mer session at Newberry Col lege last Friday. Bachelor of Arts degrees were awarded to Von H. Sin clair, son of Mr. and Mrs. V. H. Sinclair, 1721 Harrington St., and to Mrs. Nancy G. Hutson, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Earl Gilliam, 104 N. Main, Whit mire. Paul H. Davis, son of Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Davis, Little Mountain, and Laurie Thomas -lowers, 1721 Johnstone St., formerly of Fairfax, received the bachelor of science degrees. Dr. Conrad B. Park, academ ic dean, presided at the exer cises in Wiles Chapel. He was assisted by Dean of Students Harry Weber and Prof. Thos. K. Epting, secretary of the faculty. The speaker was Dr. James F. Cummings, head of the college’s education depart ment, who told the graduates that America’s greatest need is “a commitment to quality.” Dr. Cummings urged his lis teners to measure their per formances against a standard of excellence. Using the criter ion, “what the other fellow does,” leads only to complac ency and mediocrity, he de clared. He suggested that standards of excellence also are needed in government and public edu cation. Cities, counties and school districts often fall short of excellence, he said, because they measure their accomplish ments only against those of neighboring areas. Declining pride in workman ship, Dr. Cummings said, re cently prompted him to com pose a verse: In the past when shoddy nter- chandise bedecked the mer chants shelves, We smiled and nodded knowing ly and chuckled to ourselves, For cheap, inferior workman ship in bottle, box or can We knew would bear the label —Manufactured in Japan. But now we’re fat and affluent, and craftmanship is poor, The joy of work, its own re ward, appeals not to the boor. And so inferior workmanship, in basket, crate or tray, Too often bears the label, Made in USA.
