Bradshaw shines in Indian line A member of the defensive secondary of the Newberry Col lege Indians who hasn’t receiv ed the publicity that many of the other stars have been giv en is Tim “Buzzard” Bradshaw. He surely proved himself in Newberry’s opening game Sep tember 11, with Emory and Henry Wasps. The 5T0”, 175 pound senior cornerback play ed superb football through the entire game and had three in terceptions to his credit. Brad shaw was looking forward to the opening game with Emory and Henry for several reasons, but probably the biggest one of all was that in last year’s open er against Emory and Henry, he suffered a broken leg and had to sit out the entire 1970 season. But this year it was different. Instead of getting hurt, “Buzzard” was consis tently hurting the opponent, not only with his keen play but NOTICE TO CREDITORS All persons having claims against the estate of Ulysses S.

A 1968 graduate of Irmo High School, he now lives in Irmo with his wife, Katie, and their two sons. He commutes to and from school where he is major ing in history. Bradshaw is one of the four- year veteran members of the Indians this year. Although he hasn’t received much publicity and recognition in previous years, if he continues to play as he did in the season’s open er with Emory and Henry, New berry’s football fans are going to hear a lot more about Brad shaw before the season ends on Thanksgiving. Tax payment required to get new tags The South Carolina Highway Department issued a reminder today to all vehicle owners that, by law, the Department cannot issue a license to any owner unless his official registration form is accompanied by a state ment (form 406) from his coun ty treasurer stating that all tax es owed on all vehicles owned by him have been paid. With one and a quarter mil lion vehicle registration forms in the mail to owners, highway officials are issuing the tax statement reminder in order to save each owner any incon venience that might occur should he go to one of the Department’s 50 offices only to find he has overlooked obtain ing a tax certification statement and, therefore, cannot obtain li cense plates. The same would be true for an owner order ing his tags by mail. A cancel ed check will not sen. e as proof that taxes have been paid. Un der state law, only form 406 can be accepted as unquestion able proof taxes have been paid and thereby allowing the De partment to issue license plates. Issuance of vehicle licenses begin Monday, September 20. Judging from past experience, it is expected that many per sons will want to obtain their licenses on the first day. Offi cials point out that, this year, all regularly issued licenses will carry relatively low num bers, each having a three letter prefix following by the numbers ranging from 101 to 250. This year, for the first time, the Department is offering per sonalized licenses to applicants at a fee of $15 in addition to the regular registration fee. In order to apply for per sonalized license plates an in dividual must obtain a special form from any Highway Depart ment license office. Any com bination of letters and numbers from two to seven may be re quested and the individual will receive his choice, providing he is the first to ask for such a combination. If he asks for as few as two or thre characters on a plate, one of them must be a letter. Present, or 1971 license plates expire November 15 of this year. Leslie completes Tlebe’ week Gordon Stuart Leslie, III, son of Mr. and Mrs. Gordon S. Les lie, Jr., 1410 Friend St. was among some 700 freshmen who completed “Plebe Week” at The Citadel Aug. 30. Upperclassmen registered Aug. 31 and classes began Sept. 1. Following traditions evolved at the military college since its founding in 1842, freshmen ca dets are indoctrinated during a week of concentrated training prior to the return of upper classmen. This enables the new cadets to take their places as members of the South Caro lina Corps of Cadets when it forms upon the arrival of the cadets of the upper classes. During “Plebe Week” the freshmen underwent instruction in drill, college regulations, ho nor system, traditions of The Citadel, and other training ne cessary to assist each new ca det in acquitting himself well in the classroom and on the parade ground. Leslie was graduated from Newberry High School where he was a member of key club, Latin club, Spanish club, and Student Council. He plans to major in chemistry at The Ci tadel.

Student paper gets rating of all-American “The Indian,” the student newspaper at Newberry College has received an All-American rating by the Associated Colle giate Press at the University of Minnesota in the 85th All- American Critical Service for “The Indian’s” spring semester issues. WILLIAMSON The ACP award is based on coverage and content, writing and editing, editorial leader ship, physical appearance, and photography. Marks of distinc tion for superior achievement may be awarded in each of the five categories; a paper must receive at least four such marks to be rated All-American. “The Indian” edited by Ellen Williamson, Newberry senior, received the Mark of Distinc tion for superior accomplish ment in content and coverage, editorial leadership, physical appearance, and photography. Miss Williamson was assisted by Patricia Duggins, Greenville, Tenn. senior; managing editor; Norma Stuart, Huntsville, Ala. junior news editor; Kathy Warn er, Brunswick, Ga., junior, fea ture editor; Julia Williamson, Hanahan, S. C. senior, copy editor; Harrison Rigby, Green ville, S. C. senior, acting sports editor; and Randall Holcombe, Newberry freshman, photo grapher. Covering the college campus and relating to national events offers an increasing challenge to the newspaper staff work ing with limited time and funds,” Otto W. Quale, ACP Executive Director said, “An overall study indicates the col lege publications are doing an outstanding job fully aware of both the opportunities and obli gations of a free and responsi ble press.” Over 500 college and univer sity newspapers were evaluated by the ACP for the spring se mester awards. The All-American Award is the second consecutive one for the Newberry College student newspaper; the earlier award was given for the fall semester issues of 1970 edited by Betsy Dunklin of Florence. Miss Williamson is the daugh ter of Mr. and Mrs. N. K. Wil liamson, 1734 Boundary St., Newberry. FT. HOOD, Tex. - Robert L.
