Famed Humorist
Keeps “Bosses”
In Laughter
The many “bosses” present
Monday night at the annual
Bosses Night banquet of the Jack
son Business and Professional
Women’s Club at the Jackson
Clubhouse went away chuckling
at the wonderful wit and humor
exhibited by J. Ellis Swint, famed
humorist and promient Columbus
businessman, who was speaker for
the occasion. The program was in
charge of the Civic Participation
Committee, Miss Dorothy Thom
as, chairman, who introduced Mr.
Swint.
Reciting one anecdote after the
other in his inimitable style, Mr.
Swint kept the large audience
laughing with his only digression
in a serious vein coming near the
end of his talk when he men
tioned patience as one of the fore
most virtues.
Mr. Swint, a native of Harris
County, is president, treasurer,
and general manager of Southern
Foods, Inc., and president of East
Alabama Provision Company in
Opelika, both meat packing firms.
Mr. Swint is a member, a teacher
and deacon in the Mt. Zion Bap
tist Church and is a member and
director of the Columbus Cham
ber of Commerce, the Columbus
Rotary Club, the Columbus Exec
utives Club, and the Muscogee
County School District.
An enjoyable musical inter
lude and skit was enjoyed prior
to Mr. Swint’s address with this
portion of the program being in
charge of the Music Committee,
Mrs. George Ridgeway and Mrs.
G. R. Lewis. Mr. and Mrs. Steve
Jett presented several delightful
numbers, one of which they re
quested audience participation. A
take-off on the Hee-Haw program
was presented by members of the
club amid gales of laughter. The
theme of the evening was a West
ern motif with many of the mem
bers dressed in western attire
and decorations fitting the occas
sion.
Mrs. Robert C. Edwards, pres
ident, welcomed the large group,
with a special welcome to Mrs.
Helen Baldwin, state president.

1970 Hemi-’Cuda.
This year, there are 10 new Barracudas. And we've changed the
looks substantially. (We've packed a 426 Hemi engine under a
“Shaker” hood on one of them and called it the Hemi-'Cuda.)
However you look at it, our Barracuda is all-new. We’ve
moved it two inches closer to the ground. Pushed the wheels
fartheraparton ourstandard torsion-bar suspension. Puta tough
optional bumper on the front that comes in most paint colors.
And given the interior the design and comfort of a jet cockpit.

Lions Ask
Donations
Of Eyes
The Butts County Lions Club
held its meeting Tuesday at Avon
dale Mills in a conference room
adjacent to the plant.
A special program was pre
sented which emphasized the
Lions Lighthouse for the Blind.
The program was brought by Bill
Oldham, Fred Parmerly, and Paul
Ashton, all members of the South
side Lions Club of Macon.
An appeal was made for local
Lion members to will their eyes,
upon death, to be used for
corneal transplant. An inform
ative film on the process of trans
plants was shown and added
greatly to the Lion’s knowledge
on the project.
President Carl Brack and Lion
Don Folsom asked that anyone
interested in willing their eyes
to this worthwhile project to con
tact them. However, President
Brack makes it clear that dona
tion of eyes are taken from both
i lub members and non members.
