convention
“Who Will Conquer the World
in the 1970’s?” will be the title
of the main talk at the conven
tion attended by sixteen South
Carolina congregations Starting
Friday, December 11. Key
speaker is to be Mr. David
Thomas, district ministry su
pervisor from the Watchtower
Bible Society.. With radical ele
ments both far left and right
teaching the overthrow of es
tablished governments, this sub
ject is of serious concern. Ac-'
cording to Mr. Timothy L.
Brooks, presiding minister of
the Newberry Central congre
gation of Jehovah’s Witnesses,
Christians should obey the ci
vil authorities and try to live
peaceably with all men. Com
menting further he said, “To
see ministers and priests of re
ligion giving their support and
getting involved in demonstra
tions protesting legal authority
shows conditions that the Bi
ble predicted as a time of un
rest such as has never been
seen before.”
The witnesses do not believe
that the communists will take
over the world in the future,
but explain that the Bible does
identify who will conquer the
world. The main talk at 2
p.m. Sunday will be attended by
over 1,000 delegates and inte
rested observers. A feature
of the convention on Saturday
morning at 9:15 will be a water
immersion baptism of over 30
new ministers. Both men and
women are ordained, while men
alone are appointed to positions
of responsibility in the congre
gations. The congregation here
in Newberry is sending dele
gates who will report back on
new things learned.

Some 80 adults are enrolled
in the adult program at Whit
mire High School, according to
Kenneth L. Coleman, director
of adult education and princi
pal. Coleman, a former athle
tic director and coach, said that
about 60 of these adults are
working toward their high school
diploma. “These people work a
full day, then come to class at
night,” he added. About 10 ve
terans are enrolled, and Cole
man hopes that additional ve
terans in the area will take ad
vantage of the recently-libera
lized benefits. Mr. Coleman may
be contacted at 694-3400 for ad
ditional information.
NEWBERRY
William P. Mabry reports
that about 170 adults are par
ticipating in the adult educa
tion program at Newberry High
School. Mr. Mabry is principal
and director of the adult pro
gram. “We have nine teachers
in this, the fifth year of an
adult program at the high
school,” Mabry said. Their pro
gram consists of basic programs
for adults with less than an
eighth grade education, a high
school diploma program and
training for unlicensed adults.
Many adults are studying one
or two subjects to improve
their performance on the job
or to prepare for employment.
“This is especially true in the
shorthand, typing and bookkeep
ing courses,” Mabry said. Other
subjects offered include math,
home economics, family living,
history, English, science and
biology. Additional information
about the program at Newberry
High School may be obtained
by calling Mr. Mabry at 276-
3427.
MID-CAROLINA
Sixty-seven adults are cur
rently enrolled, an increase of
19 from an initial enrollment
in September of 48. Included
in this group are 18 veterans.
“Most of these people are in
our high school program, work
ing toward their high school
diploma,” said Clarence Chick,
adult education teacher and di
rector of the program at Mid-
Carolina. Nineteen adults are
enrolled in the basic program,
and are striving to reach the
eighth grade level. “Most of
our students come from Little
Mountain, Pomaria and Pros
perity,” Chick said.
TOTAL COMMUNITY
SUPPORT
Coordinator Leitzsey related
that total community support
for adult education programs
is evident in Newberry County.
“Business and industry are con
stantly looking for persons with
good educational backgrounds
in the basic learning skills,”
Leitzsey said. He added that
employers also encourage their
employees to improve their edu
cation to qualify for future ad
vancement with their compa
nies.
“Many employees find that
they cannot move up the lad
der until they get their high
school diploma,” Leitzsey con
tinued. He also praised local
employment offices for making
referrals to him when an ap

Carolina High School.
plicant shows a definite need
for additional education. When
asked about the success of a-
dult education programs in New
berry County, Leitzsey said that
196 high school diplomas have
been issued to adults in New
berry County during the past
four years.
“This means that 196 adults
have established goals, worked
hard and have reached them,”
Leitzsey said. He also praised
local employment offices for
making referrals when appli
cants would benefit from addi
tional education.
Many adults with less than
a high school education are ac
tually closer to that diploma
than they realize. “Credit
can be granted in many cases
for work experience, thus re
ducing the number of units
needed through study in our a-
dult program,” Leitzsey said.
Many adults are not taking
advantage of the excellent op
portunities available in adult
education programs. Leitzsey
indicated that all adults with
less than a high school educa
tion should think seriously about
adult education programs in the
county.
Why adult education? The pro
grams are here. Subjects are
offered to meet the needs of
adult students. Class schedules
are arranged to suit the needs
of these students. Whether you
live in Newberry, Prosperity,
Whitmire or any other part of
Newberry County, you’re not
far from an adult education
program.
For further information about
opportunities in adult educa
tion, contact Mr. Leitzsey at
the Newberry County Educa
tional Building, telephone 276-
3216.
