Sandra Tally Heads
March of Dimes
Teen Activities
Heading Georgia’s teen acti
vities for the 1961 New March
of Dimes is Sandra Tally of
Homerville, the current “Miss
Georgia”.
“A teen ager may be too young
to vote - or get gray hair - col
lect Social Security, but no one
is ever too young to become
sick or crippled”, said Sandra.
I have accepted chairmanship
of the Teen-Age Program of the
1961 New March of Dimes in
Georgia because I think that is
one way I can help prevent
crippling diseases”.
Tenn-agers throughout the state
are busy with plans for fund
raising projects to help the Mar
ch of Dimes get the money it
needs for its program of patient
aid, research and education in
the fields of birth defects, arthri
tis and polio, the teen chairman
explained. She has been meeting
with teen groups to make sug
gestions and plans for their acti
vities.
“One of our main interests is
The National Foundation’s scho
larship program to train students
in nursing, medicine, medical
social work and occupational
and physical therapy”, Miss
Tally pointed out. “The National
Foundation offers more than
500 new scholarships every year,
each one worth SSOO annually”,
she added. “We are proud of the
fact that twenty-three Georgia
teens have received these scho
larships in the past two years”.
Throughout the nation, teen
agers raise thousands of dollars
annually for the March of Dimes.
According to Sandra, Georgia
teens want to serve and they
are going to do their best to see
that the state has a fine record
this year.
The teen chairman, Miss Geor
gia of 1960, will be influencial
in teen activities for the New
March of Dimes as she has demo
nstrated her leadership abilities
during her school career. She was
a student at Wesleyan College
where she received semester
honors and was a member of the
freshmen basketball and soccer
teams.
At Clinch County High School,
she received the Lions Club pla
que for the highest average for
four years and the mathematics
award. She played varsity basket
ball for four years, received the
R. E. A. trophy for the most
valuable player, was cheer leader,
majorette, editor of the annual, a
member of Beta Club and voted
“the most likely to succeed” in
the 1959 senior class.

Blitch Insists
That ICC Hold
Merger Hearing
WASHINGTON — Rep. Iris
Blitch told Interstate Commerce
Commission last week that she
is not satisfied with their refusal
to grant a hearing in Waycross
on the proposed merger of the
Atlantic Coast Line and the Sea
board Railway.
Mrs. Blitch said she has been
insistent in her appeals to the
ICC since such a large number
of persons in southern Georgia
are interested in the economic
consequences of the proposed
merger.
“However,” said Mrs. Blitch,
"1 have not demanded that the
ICC refuse to grant the merger
because I thought they would be
fair enough to give the people
most affected by it a chance to
be heard. I am strongly insisting
on the hearing, and if one is not
scheduled in Waycross by the
ICC, I will have no recourse but
to file a formal protest to the
merger. She explained, “It may
be that the merger would be a
benefit to our area. I have no
way of knowing, nor has any
one else, until representatives of
the railroads themselves go on
record at public hearings as to
the effect of the merger on the
workers and the general economy
of our section.”
State Agricultural
For 1961 Told by
“More of the same” is the way
Extension Economist S. J. Bran
nen sums up the outlook for
Georgia farmers in 1961.
Trends which have been af
fecting agriculture are likely to
continue during the coming year,
Mr. Brannen, head of the Exten
sion economics department at
the University of Georgia Col
lege of. Agriculture, predicted
this week as he took a look at
what farmers can expect during
the next 12 months.
“Overall impact of the econo
mic forces presently affecting
agriculture will put pressure
upon the individual farmer to in
crease his volume of business so
that his income is maintained on
a narrower margin between price
and cost,” he continued.
“Consequently, farms will con
tinue to grow larger in acreage,
use more machinery .and employ
newer production. Overall mana
gement ability, particularly capi
tal and credit management, will
play an increasingly important
role in farming.”
Mr. Brannen gave the follow
ing explanation of the economic
forces that he expects to affect
the Georgia agricultural picture
in 1961:
Forward March! With Dimss Hein!
Stepping out prot-lly in Nashville, Tenn., seven-year-old
Margaret Ann Springer shows Dr. J. William Hillman how
well she can get around on her new braces. The youngster
is being helped at the second March of Dimes Birth Defects
Clinical Study Center established at Vanderbilt University
Medical School at Nashville. Born with a crippling birth de
fect called open spine, Margaret Ann has been in and out
of the university hospital since she was one year old. The
new center is devoted primarily to National Foundation
research into wider knowledge about birth defects and into
new methods of treatment.

TO GEORGIA COUNTIES
Columbia was formed from Richmond County in 1790 to ’ •-
come the 12th county in the state. This central northeastern
Georgia county covers 306 square miles. Appling, now th»
county seat, was important in America’s early struggle for
independence from England. Here, around 1772, Dani*!
Marshall successfully defied British law dictating religious
form, opening the way to new types of worship in this country.
Today, Columbia County is known for its dairy and poultry
farms and for the enormous Clark Hill Dam and reservoir.
The dam, which cost $46,000,000. stretches 200 feet across the
Savannah River and controls 70,000 acres of water. This lake
has become a popular recreation center. Other towns of note in
Columbia county are Harlem, Evan, Grovetown and Martinez.
In Georgia counties where the sale of beer and ale is leg«l,
the United States Brewers Foundation works constantly to
assure their sale under pleasant, orderly conditions. Believing
that strict law enforcement serves the best interest of the
people of Georgia, the Foundation stresses close cooperation
with the Armed Forces, law enforcement and governing officials.
Georgia’s
Moderation
Outlook
Economist
Although demand for farm
products remains strong, supplies
are abundant. With normal
weather, supplies will continue
to be plentiful and prices farm
ers receive for their products
will probably average a little
lower for the year as a whole.
Larger marketings will parti
ally offset lower prices, so gross
cash income should show little
change from the record level of
1960.
Prices farmers pay are expect
ed to show less tendency to rise
than during recent years, al
though they probably will rise a
little. Production costs, however,
will be higher because of higher
wage rates and taxes and larger
interest payments on mortgage
debts. Farmers are also expected
to expand the volume of their
purchases of production goods.
Higher prduction costs and
more or less steady gross income
will keep the squeeze on net farm
income. During the last decade
net income of Georgia farmers
has remained remarkably steady
while cash receipts from mar
ketings rose by 55 percent.
Although this outlook for the
agricultural economy as a whole
Columbia County
CLARK HILI DAM
I Foundation
I *YLJr 2 Georgia Division
I \PX Suite 224, no Sc, N. E. I

suggests fairly stable price and
income prospects, such will
not be the case for individual
farmers or individual commodi
ties.
Except for cotton, acreage and
price prospects for most major
cash crops are virtually unchang
ed from 1960.
Cotton acreage allotments are
larger than for 1960, and because
of the smaller cotton supply for
1960-61, price supports are not
likely to be much lower despite
the change in basic grade for
price supports.
Prospects for livestock are
somewhat less promising, parti
cularly if the larger supply in
dications materialize.
Smaller production of pork
and eggs during the first half
of 1961 are likely to hold prices
above levels of early 1960. The
better prices should stimulate
production for the latter half of
the year, so prices should drop
later in the year to levels be
low those of late 1960.
Larger beef and poultry sup
plies are expected to keep prices
at or below 1960 levels for most
months during the year.
