VALUE RECEIVED
Carpet is a real value. You
can be certain that you are
receiving more value for less
money than ever before in
history. Carpeting is one of
the few products that has not
increased in price, as
compared to value received.
In fact, the consumer
receives a great deal more
for his dollar today than he
did when buying carpeting 10
or 20 years ago. Carpets are
made of better synthetic
fibers, more soil resistant,
easy-to-care-for, and more
durable.
Carpetings is a great
value. Come in today and
look over our tremendous
selection of carpets for every
room in the home. We have
shags, highlows, textured
carpets, and more ... see
them today.

DOYLE JONES, JR. M
A strange thing happened on the way to Athens
Friday—we detoured by way of Clayton to attend a Board of
Managers meeting of the Georgia Press Association at the
simply beautiful Kingwood Country Club, set in its rustic
majesty on the side of a mountain that presents a
breath-taking vista of the valley and the surrounding
mountains. The leaves were pretty but we understand this
season did not match those of past years.
One of the principal reasons for our trip was to permit a
most pleasurable visit with Barry and Ellen Jones, niece and
nephew who live atop a mountain near Tiger. Barry is a
gentleman farmer, nurseryman, writer, cameraman, and a
young man of many other attainments. Ellen is a petite miss
with a golden brain, a Phi Beta Kappa from the University of
Georgia, a computer programmer of multi talents much in
demand and at present anew employee of the Bank of Rabun
County, opened only a month. Good news was a movie
company had decided to do a picture in the Clayton area and
Barry has signed on the dotted line as assistant cameraman,
which will bring a nice piece of change to the Jones coffers.
Barry and Ellen visited with us after the GPA dinner Friday
night and it was a pleasure seeing my kin.
Saturday when we awoke the valley below our room
was covered with a hoar frost that appeared as snow. A heavy
coating of ice covered the car as we loaded it early for the
hurried departure.
It had been many years since we had been in that area
of the state so we had to stop at Tallulah Falls to view once
again the always inspiring gorge and river. We traveled to
Athens on Route 106 through Carnesville, Da, and on into the
Classic City.
We learned the bad news that Mrs. L. F. Griffeth,
Martha s mother, had fallen and severely bruised herself,
chipping a small piece of bone off her pelvis. She was in bed at
home and in much distress because of the pain and soreness.
Martha remained at home while I went to the game.
Georgia was almost emeshed in a Spider’s web for the
Richmond team fought with a fierce fury that almost carried
the day. Inspired and up for the game they carried the fight to
the ’Dogs and almost won a stunning upset.
Yet to Georgia’s credit they played well enough to win
against a good opponent. How does a coach get his team up for
an opponent like Richmond? There is no way! It was
supposed to be a breather, yet Georgia was fighting for her
life and that of the season against a well prepared and
inspired foe. Tennessee and Auburn can point to the hazards
of catching a smaller team red hot.
One of the big games in the nation Saturday will be the
confrontation in Jacksonville between Georgia and Florida.
The game is but the climax. It is a social event of great
significance. The weekend has been dubbed with much truth
the “world’s largest cocktail party.” It begins on Thursday
and ends for most on Sunday. The only thing in my memory
that rivals it was the Georgia-Auburn weekend in Columbus
and that on a smaller scale. There is a festive spirit about
Jacksonville that infiltrates ones being, almost involuntarily,
that sets the mood and tempo for the gala event. It is an
‘infectious mood—clerks are more friendly, bar tenders more
convivial, cab drivers more talkative, total strangers more
cordial—during this weekend of gridiron madness.
But sadly, Georgia is likely to be overwhelmed and out
wood, Calif.

SUNNYSIDE TOGGERY
Highway 41 At Sunny Side, Georgia
classed by Florida. Ido not believe Georgia can hold the great
running tandem of Dußose and Green in check and to top it off
the Gator’s great quarterback, Don Gaffney, will be returning
to action after suffering a small broken bone in his wrist.
Florida is simply too talented for Georgia to cope with, yet we
expect the ’Dogs to give a good account of themselves. Let’s
say Florida 28—Georgia 17.
We are proud as punch of our Red Devils. On the way
back from Clayton I had the car radio tuned in to WSB and I
bet they gave all the scores of ball games over the state save
about ten and Jackson’s was one of them. We had to stop at a
red light in Carnesville and I saw a paper box with an Atlanta
Constitution and pulled over for Martha to get a copy. I was
tickled to death to learn rather belatedly that Jackson had
taken care of arch foe Henry County in the rather convincing
fashion of 31-0.
The improvement of Bill Fears at quarterback has been
nothing short of phenomenal. He has developed into a
competent leader and a fair passer and runner. Injuries have
hampered Jackson all season long but those remaining have
played tough and taken up the slack. The Devils will likely
finish with a remarkable 9-1 record, believed impossible at
the beginning of the season.
Again I wish to congratulate the coaching staff of
Danny Blue, Tommy Carmichael and Hyrum Pierce for their
outstanding job. There is reason to believe that the winning
spirit has been instilled here and the winning tradition in high
school football is a great plus.
In closing let me say I believe Tech has an excellent
chance to upset a slower and more ponderous Notre Dame
team. The key will be Tech’s defense. They will have to play
over their heads for Tech to win and I believe they will do it.
We do not think the Irish can shut off Tech’s vaunted scoring
power and we look for Tech to win in a high scoring game.
