Kiwanis run
Night Tuesday
It was a “pun” night and fun
night Tuesday as Kiwanians,
their ladies, and guests assem
bled, almost 100 strong, to be en
tertained by Dr. Henry T. Ma
lone, immediate past Governor of
the Georgia District of Kiwanis
and one of Georgia’s wittiest and
most humorous speakers. The ap
pearance of Dr. Malone was ar
ranged by Ralph Carr, Jr., secre
tary of the Jackson club and vice
president-elect.
In his inimitable, sparkling
way, Dr. Malone cracked one
joke after the other, keeping his
attentive and appreciative audi
ence in peals of laughter. The
humor of the speaker was so in
fectious that President Frank
Forehand, Secretary Carr, and
Henry Asbury tried feely to out
do him and failed miserably. Dr.
Malone was accompanied to Jack
son by his charming wife, Pat.
A special guest was Ernest
Cheeves, Lt. Governor of the 12th
Division, and Mrs. Cheeves.
Each lady present was present
ed an attractive pill box with the
Kiwanis insignia. The club also
presented a basket of gifts to Mr.
and Mrs. Malone.
A musical Happy Birthday was
accorded Kiwaniennes Nora Ball
and Louise Powell.
The clubhouse was beautifully
decorated with fall flowers,
pumpkins, and orange candles in
candelabras.

THE JACKSON PROGRESS-ARGUS, JACKSON, GEORGIA
Crime Control
Vital, Holland
Tells BPW Club
Mr. Francis Holland, Deputy
Warden of the Georgia Diagnos
tic and Classification Center,
spoke to the Jackson Business
and Professional Women’s Club
at their dinner meeting Monday
evening, October 29th, at the
Jackson Clubhouse. The program
was arranged by the World Af
fairs Committee, Mrs. Maurine
Shields, chairman, who presented
Mr. Holland.
A native of Pierce County, Mr.
Holland attended elementary
school at Ola and high school at
McDonough. He graduated from
the University of Omaha in 1966
and retired from the U. S. Air
Force in July 1967. Mr. Holland
began work for the State Board
of Corrections at the Georgia In
dustrial Institute at Alto in Aug
ust 1967 as administrative assist
ant. In March 1968 he trans
ferred to the Georgia Diagnostic
and Classification Center as ad
ministrative assistant and in
September of this year was pro
moted to Deputy Warden. Mr.
Holland attends the Jackson
Methodist Church and is a mem
ber of the Jackson Kiwanis Club.
Mr. Holland stated that crime
is one of the great problems fac
ing the world today and that the
general public’s apathy toward
crime is one of the principal
reasons for its vicious and rapid
spread. The speaker pointed out
that there were over two million
Americans in prison in 1965 and
that too many Americans think
that crime represents a very nar
row range of behavior. While it
is true the problem of crime rests
with police officers, courts and
prison authorities, Mr. Holland
was emphatic in his assertion
that crime can only be controlled
by individuals, schools, businesses,
private clubs, etc. taking a defi
nite interest in crime control.
Evidence indicates, he re
marked, that the majority of
crimes are committed by white
males over 24 years of age with
15 to 17 age group leading the
burglaries, auto thefts, etc., with
crimes of violence followed close
ly by ages 21 to 24.
Crime can be prevented by
closer cooperation with law en
forcement agencies, by individ
uals and organizations; with
money and work donated to sup
port neighborhood programs; pro
vide more and better youth pro
grams; insist on adult education;
and insist on better qualified po
lice officers, with better paid
salaries. Mr. Holland stated that
people should insist on legisla
tures providing sufficient money
to build and staff prisons with
professional personnel. He point
ed out that there are 18 prison
branches in Georgia presently
accommodating over 8,000 in
mates.
Mrs. Robert C. Edwards, presi
dent, welcomed guests who in
cluded Mrs. Jim McMichael, Mrs.
Francis Holland, Miss Eloise
Beauchamp, Mrs. Ruth Settle,
Mrs. Mary Ann Leverette and
three FHA girls, Donna Waits,
Gail Batchelor and Anita Shel
nutt, who assisted Mrs. Jessie
Mackey in serving. They were ac
companied by their sponsor, Mrs.
Margaret Pecht. The three girls
were attired in prison outfits
furnished by prison officials.
Decorations were in keeping
with the holiday season and in
cluded pumpkins, horn of plenty
with various fruits and vege
tables, and favors were yellow
net bags of corn candy.

to the business meeting Tuesday

home of Mrs. S. L. Austin.

Explosive
Green Wave
Here Friday
The Jackson Red Devils Friday
night face the awesome task of
stopping the region’s leading
scorer, Alfred Jenkins, as well as
the fifth ranked Class B team in
the state, Hogansville, as the
Greenies invade Red Devil Hill
for the next to last game of the
’6B season. As if this were not
enough, the Red Devils close out
jtheir season November Bth in
Jackson against the fourth ranked
Bulldogs of Mary Persons.
The Hogansville Green Wave
is one of the most explosive teams
in the state, led by their great
running back, Alfred Jenkins,
who as of October 29th had
tallied 72 points, placing him in a
tie in scoring in Region 5-B with
David Taylor of Pacelli. Jackson
will counter with Lee Fambro,
the region’s fourth highest rush
er with 479 yards in 116 carries;
with the region’s top defensive
player, Kenneth Waits, with 87
tackles, and the region's third
leading defensive player, Tim
Hardy, with 69 tackles; and with
the region’s leading punter, Ken
ny Waits, with a 38.7 average per
kick. Hogansville startled the
football world with a 16-0 upset
win over Manchester two weeks
ago that elevated them upward
in the state ranks.
In Friday night’s game against
Manchester in Manchester the
Red Devils played well enough to
win but cheap touchdowns, one
on a pass interception, one on a
fumble recovery, and one on a
long run on the first play of the
third quarter, doomed Jackson to
its fifth defeat in eight games.
The Blue Devils put together a
good game on a chilly night to
down Jackson 33-13.
Manchester scored early in the
first period when the Red Devils
fumbled on their own 15-yard
line with the ball picked up and
run across the goal by an alert
defender. Jackson struck back,
however, with Lee Fambro cap
ping a fine drive with a one-yard
touchdown plunge. The point was
missed and Jackson trailed 7-6
for most of the first half until
Manchester pushed across an
other score shortly before inter,
mission.
On the first play of the third
quarter, Manchester scored on a
70-yard run that broke the game
open and put it beyond the reach
of the Red Devils.
Statistics slightly favored Jack
son who made 13 first downs to
10 for Manchester, rushed for
105 yards to 269 for the host
team, but passed for 178 yards
to only 16 for Manchester. This
gave Manchester a total offensive
