Retarded group seek information Representatives of the South Carolina Association for Re tarded Children (SCARC) are in Newberry this week gather ing information for a state-wide directory of services available to the developmentally disabl ed person. According to Mr. Rudolph Caldwell, President of the Newberry County ARC. Howard Y. Sparks, Director for Development of Commu nity Resources, and Carlton W. Traux, Project Director, will be interviewing representatives of various health and social agencies in the Newberry area to develop a detailed descrip tion of what services are avail able here. This information will be compiled with information secured in other counties of the state. “At present the parents of many developmentally disabled children do not know where to turn for help.” Sparks said. “In addition, many professio nals to whom these parents turn for help, are not fully a- ware of all the services avail able on a local, regional or state-wide level.” A directory of these services will be published from the in formation compiled from these visits to all of the state’s 46 counties so that those who serve the health and social needs of the retarded and handicapped will know exactly where to send their clients for the specializ ed services they need. “We are grateful for the work of our local chapter, the New berry County Association for Retarded Children; and for the cooperation of other agencies in this particular endeavor,” Mrs. Lucy Winans, SCARC pre sident said. “We are glad to be able to offer this additional service to the retarded and dis abled of Newberry County.” This is a part of the con tinuing program of services from SCARC and the Newberry County Association for Retard ed Children. The association was already responsible for ini tiating the Mandatory Educa tion Law. This law, which SCARC helped write and get through the General Assembly, makes it mandatory that edu cational services be provided by every school district for all its children regardless of re tardation or other handicaps. It was signed by Governor John West on February 9. “The effectiveness of this law in Newberry County de pends, to a large extent, upon now interested local citizens work with their school offi cials,” Mrs. Winans said. “The SCARC is ready to help any interested citizen in furthering this program. Mayor Hamm - sets Bank Week Mayor J. Walter Hamm has proclaimed May 7-13 Bank Week in Prosperity, S. C. to corre spond with the statewide Bank Week in South Carolina which was declared by' Governor John C. West on March 6. In making the proclamation, Mayor Hamm stated that “these institutions provide a full and complete service to all our citi zens . . .” and we recognize their “commitmant to the wholesome development of all our community, which involve ment makes cur city a better place to live and enriches the lives of all our citizens.” Area banks will join scores of others ihroughout South Carolina in this major effort to improve communications with the public. Bank Week in South Carolina is sponsored by the South Carolina Bankers As sociation, and its 96 member banks with more than 500 bank ing offices. Explaining the pur pose of the event, R. M. Laf- fitte, president of the associa tion, noted that the purely com mercial role of banks is well understood, but less is known of the part they play in the economic development of the state and its communities. Al so, banks and bankers render services outside the realm of routine savings, checking, and lending functions, said Mr. Laffitte, who is president of the Exchange Bank in Estill. Mr. William D. Kibler, Jr., who is coordinator for New berry County and Assistant Vice President, The South Carolina National Bank, Newberry said “We hope also to use this oc casion to take a good look at ways we can help tackle some of today’s pressing problems in our community.” During Bank Week, several area bank ers will be available to speak before civic and service clubs, and to answer questions re lating to banking and commu- nity involvement.
