Newspaper Page TextThis Side \ Of Town \ BY BRENDA WILLIAMSON* The first tinge of Fall struck Jackson and Butts County last week when citizens experi enced much cooler tempera tures in the early morning hours. The thermometer drop ped to the.midSO mark and caused many residents to magically pull from their closet a jacket or sweater. Those of us who prefer cold weather welcomed with open arms the cool temperatures and look forward to more of the same.... Also announcing Fall’s appearance has been a change in the color of many leaves in this area. Autumn colors of red and gold have been noted in many yards and a spectacular picture is expected to be painted by Nature within a matter of weeks .... Scuppernong and muscadine lovers of this area have been enjoying Jthese two fruits the last few weeks and are savouring their delicious taste. A few homemakers have been preparing jelly for the winter cupboards which will be enjoyed during the long cold days to come. Muscadine lovers have been hiking through the woods in search of the favorite purple fruit while those a little on the lazy side and who prefer a sweeter taste go to the nearest arbor in the yard and consume scupper nongs. Muscadine hunts were infinitely more popular in days past and “city slickers” and teens of today haven’t enjoyed embarking on a “hunt” for the large succulent purple fruit which is more often than not found in tall trees and requires more than a little effort to get the pail fu11.... With Fall’s arrival also comes hunting season. Dove hunters have already enjoyed participating in several dove shoots, the dove season opening some two weeks ago. Deer hunters are eagerly awaiting the month of October and November when bow and arrow and gun will be used to hit their target and providemeat for the winter. Of regret to most hunters though is that many persons have taken advantage of the “beef shortage” to poach deer and killed many of the animals before the legal hunting season .... The Butts County Fair will begin in two weeks and those clubs and organiza tions who will have booths and exhibits are busy planning the final details for the opening night. Exhibits of all types, canned goods, animals, food, cotton candy and rides will be enjoyed by young and old alike each evening with many Butts countians to come away at the fair’s end with red, blue and white ribbons in hand. The fair is sponsored by the Exchange Club each year and special events will be held each evening. Several fairs have already been held and many more to come within the next few weeks .... Tommy Varner Showing Improvement Thomas Varner, 17, critical ly injured in the car-truck collision September 13th that killed a Jackson High School senior football player, Curtis Smith, 16, and seriously injured Thomas’ brother, Gary, 14, is showing some improvement at the Griffin- Spalding County Hospital. Thomas, driver of the car that skidded across the median near the intersection of Highway 42 and 16 on East Third Street, was charged with driving too fast for conditions and driving on the wrong side of the street by the two City of Jackson Policemen who invest igated the accident, but no warrant was taken for his arrest as was erroneously reported in the September 20th issue of the Progress-Argus. Lt. W. L. (Cotton) Vaughn of the Jackson Police Depart ment said that Thomas would be given a copy of the charges when he is released from the hospital. The Progress-Argus is glad to make this correction.
