PAGE 8—The Newberry Sun, Newberry, S. C., Thursday, March 11, 1971 BY THE WAY (Continued from Page 1) The top administrative offi cer of the National VFW or ganization was there from Washington, a serious and ar ticulate man who once served as the organization’s comman der-in-chief. Cooper T. Holt spoke plainly of those men in positions of awesome leader ship in America who today are urging that we surrender to communism in Asia. He called the roll: Fulbright, McGovern, Hatfield, Muskie. It is men like these, Mr. Holt said, who are prolonging the war. “If the blood spilled in Vietnam is on anybody’s hands,” he said, “it has got to be on their hands.” But he expressed the hope that the country is beginning to regain its sanity, that Ame ricans are becoming increas ingly insistent that the only ac ceptable peace in Vietnam is peace with honor. The commu nist plan to encircle and en slave the world must be stopp ed. For us to consent to less, Mr. Holt said, would be a be trayal of the 45,000 Americans RITZ THEATRE THURSDAY SABATA Lee Van Cleef William Berger FRIDAY SATURDAY MON DAY AND TUESDAY HOW TO FRAME AFIGG Don Knotts Joe Flynn WEDNESDAY THURSDAY FRIDAY AND SATURDAY VANISHING POINT Berry Newman Dean Jagger CLOVER LEAF DRIVE-IN FRIDAY AND SATURDAY THE OUT OF TOWNERS Jack Lemon Sandy Dennis SUNDAY ON A CLEAR DAY YOU CAN SEE FOREVER Barbara Streisand Yvee Montand Always A Color Cartoon The Drive-In Will Be Closed On Monday Tuesday Wed nesday Thursday For The Winter Months. who have given heir lives. Somehow it seemed more than an isolated vignette as this group of proud Americans gathered in our town Saurday night. The silent majority was no longer silent. As the man from Washington put it, “It is long past time for us to meet our personal responsibility.” And in retrospect, that’s all that America has been needing all along.

Library installs copy machine The Newberry Saluda Regio nal Library proudly announces the arrival of a new “baby!” This “baby” happens to be a coin operated copying machine for public use. It costs only ten cents a copy, and the ma chine will make change. States Verna Kohn, Librarian, “It will duplicate everything but the kitchen sink; and I think it would copy that if you could only get it in here. And you should see the copy it makes of a dollar bill; except that’s a no-no, I suppose.” Miss Kohn hopes that business men and students will make use of the copier. She reminds the public that they will have to do their own work as none of the li- library staff can run off mate rial for people. Using the machine is quite simple. All you have to do is select the length of paper you desire, either 11” or 14”. Then drop in your dime, wait a few seconds, and receive a perfect copy. Remember, the library is open daily from 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. and till 9:00 on Tues days and till 4:00 p.m. on Sat urdays.

Lion, Rotary sponsor Lynch’s Woods eat area Lions are cooperating in de veloping a third picnic site in Lynch’s Woods, a 300-acre park at the southeastern corner of Newberry. The new picnic area will have five tables and benches, a char coal burner, and roadside park ing. The location for the new recreational facility will be de termined by the planning com mittees of the two service or ganizations. In addition to the third picnic site, the local clubs are plann ing to install charcoal burners at the other two picnic areas in the Woods and to make im provements at two of the natu ral springs in the park to make them safe for public use. “This is the first coopera tive effort in planning civic improvement projects by the two organizations in several years,” according to Dr. Ro bert C. Farb, chairman of the Rotary Projects Committee, and Dr. James Wiseman, Jr., Chair man of the Lions Civic Im provement Committee. The first two picnic sites were developed by the New berry Rotarians with the help of Newberry County officials in the spring of 1970. The de velopment of the picnic areas last year marked the first use of Lynch’s Woods by the pu blic since it was closed in the fifties. William Kibkir is president of the Rotarians and Tommy Setzler is president of the Lions.
