Grid Camp
Is Slated
At Gordon
By Kaye Simons
Public Information Officer
Gordon Junior College will
have football on campus once
more when the Jackson High
School football team arrives in
Barnesville for a week of
vigorous practice this month.
During the week of August
19, 45 boys and 6 coaches will
“eat, drink and sleep football”
on the Gordon campus,
according to head coach Ron
Wade. The coach said his team
is using the Gordon facilities
because he could make the
team schedule to his discretion
and the school made its college
campus flexible.
Coach Wade said Gordon has
good facilities for a football
camp and the boys will have a
chance to get the right
amount of sleep and nutrition
at the dorm and in the
cafeteria. The team will stay in
Watson Hall, with meals at
12:30 p.m. and 5 p.m.
“We will have three practice
periods a day, including one
walk practice,” Coach Wade
said. “We’ve got a lot of work
to do.”
“The coach thinks that going
to camp is a chance to become
better aquainted, a chance to
develop friendship,” Coach
Wade said. He emphasized the
desire to better understand
each boy, and to help the team
blend into one working unit by
living and working together.
Gordon Comptroller Bob
Krueger, who arranged the
campus camp, said, “This is
the first clinic Gordon has
sponsored and we are very
pleased that the Jackson team
chose to spend a week here. We
hope this clinic will encourage
others to spend time on our
campus.” Krueger also said
Gordon’s dormitory facilities,
gymnasium and other physical
accommodations are attrac
tive features of the campus for
workshops, clinics and camps.
Jackson High School will
play its first football game at
home against Rockdale Coun
ty, a AAA football team.
Jackson, a class A team, will
play Rockdale on August 31,
one week after an inter-squad
game tentatively scheduled at
home on August 24.

The Hon. Tommy Irvin,
Georgia Commissioner of
Agriculture, was the speaker
Tuesday night, July 24th, at a
ladies night meeting of the
Jackson Kiwanis Club Francis
Holland, program chairman,
introduced the speaker and
longtime friend.
Commissioner Irvin was
outspoken in his criticism of
the price freeze on products in
Georgia and remarked that the
freeze was contrary to his
suggestions. Mr. Irvin said
that in his opinion the freeze
discourages production of farm
products and is making it more
difficult to grow farm pro
ducts. chicken and eggs. This
has resulted unfortunately. Mr.
Irvin pointed out, in farmers
reducing their dairy herds,
smothering baby chickens and
putting fewer eggs in incuba
tors.
On the brighter side the
speaker predicted a record
corn production for Georgia
Rural America... Tomorrow?
Today, in too many places across our land, we see
grim evidence of crushed hopes and dreams ... of
families gone away . . . moving from country to city
in search of a better life. Result: abandoned farm
steads and empty stores in the one; traffic jams and
smog in the other.
We, along with our nation's nearly 1000 other
rural electric systems, believe we must as a nation
plan—and act—now, for a better tomorrow. We
know there must be broader social and economic
opportunity in the countryside ... a better balance
of opportunity between rural and urban America.
We are pledged to this end—for the betterment of
our communities . . . for rural America . . . for all
America.
