PAGE 8—The Newberry Sun, Newberry, S. C., Thursday, March 5, 1970 By The Way... (Continued from Page 1) struction of the facility. “Generous citizens, who never heard of Camp Willow Run or Erbie and Linda Mangum have begun to sponsor a boxcar a- piece. Funds for seven of the 14 are already in hand. The money will be used to pay car penters, plumbers and electri cians who are working at re duced rates of compensation to convert the boxcars into at tractive, unique and comfort able cabins. The foundation has been poured for the camp dining hall, which will be a faithful replica of a railroad depot of yester year. Most of the materials needed for the dining hall are on hand, or have been promis ed. Money for the labor is not. Saturday morning, Erbie Man- gum, standing amidst the clat ter of busy workmen, said: “The Lord has brought us this far; I don’t know exactly how we will swing it, but I’ve pro mised Him that we'll keep work ing if He’ll keep leading us.’ RITZ THEATRE THURSDAY FRIDAY SAT URDAY MONDAY and TUESDAY MIDNIGHT COWBOY Dustin Hoffman Brenda Vaccaro (X) WEDNESDAY THURSDAY FRIDAY SATURDAY and MONDAY TUESDAY COMPUTER WORE TENNIS SHOES Kurt Russell Cesar Romero Adult 75c All Children 50c CLOVER LEAF DRIVE-IN FRIDAY and SATURDAY THEY CAME TO ROB LOS VEGAS Gary Lockwood Elkie Sommer SUNDAY JOE BUTTERFLY George Nader Barbara Eden Always A Color Cartoon The Drive-In On Monday, nesdav And The Winter Will Be Closed Tuesday, Wed- Thursday For Months. “That, as we were thinking later in the day, is the kind of serenity of spirit that the coun try soreiy needs just now. Some may dismiss it as impractical— but who can observe the prog ress of Camp Willow Run thus far, and doubt the effectiveness of such faith? Somehow, from somewhere, the support will surely come to complete the camp. And, come to think of it, the history of mankind has been that those who have vision, who try, who work, who do the best they can—generally these are the people who succeed. “And they leave the world a little better than they found it.” A week or so after this edit orial was aired, Mr. Helms ad vised that he has received num erous inquiries seeking the mail ing address of the camp. “Sev eral have suggested,” he said, “that we should distribute in formation for the benefit of oth ers who may wish to partici pate in the creation of this fac ility.” As Mr. Helms said, “I know how many times you are asked during the year to contribute to this-or-that cause,” but if you feel that you can help with the completion of Camp Willow Run, make your check (and no amount is too small) payable to Youth Camps for Christ, Inc., and send it to Rev. Erbie W. Mangum, Jr., Post Office Box 124, Littleton, N. C. 27805. This is a contribution (tax deduct ible) which you can be sure won’t find its way into some of the questionable programs of the National Council of Church es.

Demonstration in driving at Mid-Carolina * * Students of Mid-Carolina High School will have an opportunity at 8:30 a.m. Wednesday, March 11 to see for themselves how a false sense of security often leads the driver of a modern automobile into the danger zone and trouble. The students will participate in a driving demon stration, Newberry County Farm Bureau President, Earle Bedenbaugh, announced today. The demonstration, which will be in two parts, will be given under the direction of F r d n k Yonce, Director of Safety of the South Carolina Farm Bureau Federation. 1. A 10-minute lecture on traffic safety by a highway pat- • rolman will precede the show ing of a 20-minute film relating the results of actual accidents by careless people. 2. The high point of the de monstration will come when driving tests are made with various students and faculty members in the specially equip ped car. An electric detonator which is mounted on the front bumper of the car will fire yellow paint bullets to mark the distance required to stop the car in an emergency. Distance between the spots of paint will then be measured to determine the exact reaction and braking distances. The demonstration will be limited to 20, 30 and 40 miles- per-hour speeds because of the danger in making emergency stops at higher speeds. As a part of the program for safety on the highway, South Carolina Farm Bureau Federa tion is presenting this driving demonstration before the high schools of this state. The public is invited to attend the lecture as well as the demonstration. , • ; ' College to have institute for high schoolers A Summer Institute on Con temporary Issues for high school students is on the summer’s agenda at Newberry College from June 8 to July 3.
