PAGE 12—The Newberry Sun, Newberry, S. C., Thursday, Oct. 24, 1968 OVER 12,000 (Continued from page 1) Voters will have their choice for Senate Seat No. 1 of John D. Long III, Democrat, or Mar shall W. Abercrombie, Repub lican. In Seat 2, the candidates are Robert C. Lake, Jr. and Eugene C. Griffith. Voters will cast a ballot for one candidate in each of these races. Opposition is found in the following local races. State House of Representa tives: Walter T. Lake, Demo crat and Thurman Adams, Re publican. Supervisor: H. B. Hendrix, Democrat and William (Billy) O’Dell, Republican. School Board, District No. 1, Ralph T. Williams and James E. Young, Democrats, Henry Mills and Thomas Daum, Re publican. School Board No. 2, W. Hun ter Caldwell and David Luther Ruff, Democrat; Michael Chap pell and David Miller, Republi can. Voters will select two Board members in their respective dis trict and will not vote in the other district. Another ballot will be in the form of a local constitutional amendment. Approval of the amendment would provide for raising the bonded indebtedness of the School District of the county from eight to thirty per cent of the assessed value of the taxable property therein. At the present indebtedness limit, the County Board of Ed ucation reports that it cannot raise sufficient funds to con struct new school buildings in the county. The vote is only to allow the debt limit to be rais ed. Before the school board could sell general obligation bonds to construct new build ings, approval would have to be obtained from the elector ate.

Always A Color Cartoon BY THE WAY (Continued from page 1) Our “voices may count w as Goldwater says, if we vote for Nixon. But if we are voting for something as vague as Nixon has offered, will we be in any better shape ? Have we any assurance that things will be any better if Nixon is elected than they are now? Do we have any knowledge as to how much he is beholden to political boss es? Nixon says he is going to wage an all-out campaign for the next two weeks. I would hope this would mean he will actually get down to telling the people what he would DO, or at least recommend, should he become president. Then, per haps, we would know really whether “Nixons the One”— the one to vote for or against. SUPPORT NEEDED How many of you who reg ularly read this column attend the Newberry High school foot ball games? And how many of you who do,enjoy the perform ances of the band at half-time and before the games? You cheer on the members of the football team, you follow them on the road, you give them your support, but you take the band for granted. Perhaps the members of the band don’t spend quite as much time in practice as the foot ballers but they’d come a mighty close second. Just this week, for instance, they are putting in two hours extra practice every day getting ready for the State Marching Band competition in Camden. As smallest school in competi tion, they took third place at the marching band contest in Spartanburg last week. While third place may not sound very high to you, I can assure you it was. They were in competi tion with schools having up to 1800 pupils—AAAA schools— while we have just a little over 600. Many of the bands in competition had directors and assistant directors. Our band had one excellent director and an abundance of spirit and loy alty. Our band deserves support and needs support just as much as the football team does. There is no local football game here Saturday, so get in your car and go to Camden, and root for our band just the way you do for our football team. This could be the lift that would help them walk off with that State Marching Band Champ ionship.
