Our growth is "upward” as we continually 'heavy-up' our lines to take care of the increased demand. We're not out to take over the electric power industry. Our service limits are clearly defined by law, and our mission is service only. Dependable, low-cost electric power in the future for our Members depends on our ability to grow to meet their needs. We're working to get legislation which will establish a bank for electric cooperatives, leading to eventual freedom from our dependence on government financing.

This action was approved by the Board of Regents at their January meeting in Atlanta. A new name for the insti tution will be adopted at a later meeting of the Board. The action is expected to bring about a substantial in crease in enrollment at the former woman’s college which will be in keeping with the anticipated growth of the en tire University System of Georgia which includes 28 in stitutions in operation now and 4 colleges in construction or planning stages. Enrollment in the System now exceeds 60, 000 students and is expected to reach at least 90,000 stu dents by 1970. The action was taken on recommendation of Dr. Ro bert E. Lee, president of The Woman’s College, with the en dorsement of Chancellor George L. Simpson, Jr. of the University System. It fol lows a feasibility study which was authorized by the Board of Regents at the November meeting. The study was con ducted by The Woman’s Col leee of Georgia and the Chan cellor’s staff. The January authorization included the addition of a ma jor course of study in phy sics, and some reorganiza tion and redirection of em phasis in existing major pro grams. The college will continue to offer baccalaureate degrees with majors in English, math .matics, biology, chemistry, psychology, music, modern foreign languages, elemen tary education, business ad ministration, history, and po litical sciences, sociology, home economics, health and physical education and art. Minor concentrations will continue to be offered in philo sophy and religion, library science, early childhood ed ucation, speech, modern dance and health. A .master’s program for classroom teachers — the M. Ed. degree — will continue to be available in the areas of elementary education, Eng lish, .mathematics, home ec onomics, science, and social studies. The college expects to en roll up to 300 male students in the fall of 1967. Authori zation has been given for the use of Ennis Hall, which is now a woman’s dormitory, as a dormitory for men for the 1967-68 year. President R. E. Lee empha sized that the use of Ennis Hall for men students would be on a temporary basis only until other living spaces were available. Planning for additional housing and expanded science facilities will be initiated im mediately. It is anticipated that 600 additional housing spaces will be needed by the time the college enrollment exceeds 2,000 students. Some of the new facilities now in the planning and con struction stages will need to be re-planned and enlarged in scope. The primary facil ities in this category are the Student Center and Food Service building and an addi tion to the library. The changes at the college will make available a senior college for both men and wo- men students from the Mid dle Georgia area. The in stitution will also continue to draw students from throughout the state. The Woman’s College of Georgia was chartered by the General Assembly of Georgia in 1889 as the Georgia Nor mal and Industrial College and began operation on Sep tember 30. 1891. The em phasis at that time was large ly vocational. GNIC was converted to a four year degree granting col lege in 1917, and the first degree was awarded in 1921. More cultural courses were offered at that time and the liberal arts degree was offer ed. The name changed to Geor gia State College for Women in 1922, and the present name change was made in 1961. A broader academic and pro fessional program has been added through the years. The college became a unit of the University System of Georgia when the system was formed in 1932. A graduate program was initiated in the summer of 1958 as the college was authorized to award the Master of Education degree.

This 20th day of December, 1966. |s| Perry U. Rozier Ordinary 1-26 Georgia Farmers Almost Double Use of Lime Georgia farmers used 350, 000 .more tons of lime during the year ending June 30, 1966, than they used during the previous 12 months. J. R. Johnson, head of the Cooperative Extension Service agronomy department, Uni versity of Georgia, credits the “Stamp Out Acid Soils” pro gram for the increase. This program, he said, is an inten sive educational undertaking designed to acquaint farmers with the importance of lime in crop production. It was launched in 1965. Georgia farmers previously had been using about 450.000 tons of lime each year. Con sumption was up to 776.651 tons in ’65, and an estimated 800.000 tons were used in ’66. Georgia had the largest per centage increase in lime use of any state in the South last year, according to Mr. John son. He explained that lime is becoming more necessary in crop removal of calcium through higher yields. Despite the improvement, Georgia farmers are still far short of the amount of lime they need to use. The Exten sion agronomist pointed out that it is estimated the state’s food and fiber producers should use up to 1.900,000 tons annually. The watermelon is nothing new. Scientists have calcu lated that they were grown over 4.000 years ago. The watermelon’s origin has been traced to tropical Africa. Dairy Leaders Look to Future; Predict Changes “The achievement of mem bers of the Georgia One- Twenty Dairy Club is a sym bol of the progress being made in the state’s agriculture,” said Dr. H. B. Henderson, head of the dairy science department, University of Georgia College of Agriculture. Dr. Henderson pointed out. however, that too many farm ers are still in the era of the Model A and have not kept abreast of the rapid changes in the dairy industry. Speaking to the 63 current members of the One-Twenty Club, who .make up the top five percent of the grade A dairies in Georgia, Dr. Hen derson pointed out a list of goals for 1980. These goals were advanced by the dairy science division of the College of Agriculture, which includes teaching, research and Exten sion personnel. Describing developments ex pected over the next 14 years, he said that there will be one third fewer dairymen than there are now and almost all of them will be on the Dairy Herd Improvement Association testing program. There are currently about 1,500 dairymen in Georgia, so this number should be about 1,000 by 1980, according to Dr. Henderson 1 . They will keep detailed, ex tremely accurate cost-account ing records, much of which will be handled by computers. Dairymen will practice more detailed feeding techniques and the day may come when even silage will be antiquated. Dr. Henderson said there will be a rather drastic change in the area of herd health. Each herd will be under the super vision of a veterinarian 24 hours a day. Artificial breeding is here to stay and improvements will allow much closer control over breeding programs. Dairymen will not grow their own re placements. Instead, Dr. Hen derson said, they will work under contract with someone who specializes in this area. The dairyman will make max imum use of conserved forage and will use more compact products for feeding such as some form of pellets. Through the use of stream lined production methods and highly automated facilities, dairymen will increase their capacity to produce. One man will take care of 150 cows, producing m to 2 .million pounds of milk per year. Dr. Henderson pointed out that achievement of these goals will reouire highly skill ed labor with proven good judgement and skill, and a knowledge of cow psychology second to none.

High scorer for Blackshear AT&T Seeks to Lower Rates on Calls to Europe The American Telephone and Telegraph Company has announced plans to introduce station-to-station calling to most European countries which would produce annual savings totaling an estimated $4.7 .mil lion to U. S. telephone custo mers. W. B. Smith, Southern Bell manager here, said the plan would enable U. S. customers to call Europe at costs 25 to 37 per cent lower than the present sl2 rate for a three minute call. The change is being filed with the Federal Communications Commission to become effective February 1. According to Mr. Smith, European nations participating in the plan include Austria, Belgium, Denmark, France, Ireland, Netherlands. Norway, Sweden, and the United King dom. The new European station to-station schedule provides that a three-.minute call to the United Kingdom and Ireland would cost $7.40 between 5 A. M. and 5 P. M. Monday through Saturday. A reduced rate of $6.75 would apply after 5 P. M. Monday through Sa turday and all day Sunday on calls to Belgium, Denmark, Netherlands, Norway and Sweden.
