First Hi-Y
Meeting Held
At Newton Hi
Wednesday, September 9,
Mr. Burke's room at Newton
County High School was
crowded with boys who had
come to the first Hi-Y meet
ing of the new school year.
E. G. Lassiter, president,
recognized the officers and
cordially welcomed every
one. Doug Jolley, Chaplain,
presented a thought provok
ing devotional using as his
theme, ‘Serving Christ
Through Hi-Y". He used
Luke 11:9 for his Scripture
reading.
Vice-president, Ken John
son based his programs on
the history of "Y" work,
particularly Hi-Y and ex
plained its purpose very
thoroughly. He gave all the
new members an excellent
opportunity to learn what it
means to be a member of the
Hi-Y.
Ten boys volunteered to
work in the concessions
stand at the football game on
Friday night, September 11,
to earn money to help pay
the pledge made by the club
for World Service. Three
boys will help with the re
served seats at the ball game.
Mr. Burke, advisor, urged
the boys to attend every
meeting and reminded them
of the pledge they made
when they joined the club.
Mike Dennis, school projects
chairman, closed the meeting
with prayer.

All Georgia Vehicles Must Be
Inspected After January Ist
For some fifteen years,
civic leaders, safety experts
and safety-minded citizens
have looked forward to the
time when cars would be
safety checked and unsafe
vehicles would be required
to make necessary repairs.
This was realized when the
1963 Georgia General As
sembly voted to make ve
hicle inspection compulsory
in Georgia, effective Janu
ary 1, 1965.
The interval between the
signing of this Bill and the
activating of the law was
occasioned by the necessary
time involved in setting up
a new Division at the De
partment of Public Safety
charged w>ith the responsi
bility of carrying out the
details of this new and im
portant law. Needless to
say. this has proven to be a
gigantic task. Innumerable
obstacles had to be hurdled,
and now some 2,500 official
.inspection stations are being
authorized throughout the
State, including garages, au
tomobile dealers, service
stations, service stores and
other similar establishments.
During the first six
months of 1965, beginning
January first, every motor
vehicle — private car, bus,
truck or trailer will go
through these certified in
spection lanes to ascertain
if they are mechanically
safe for operation on Geor
gia streets and highways.
In succeeding years, the in
spection period will be dur
ing January through March.
Captain E. D. Mink, who
is in charge of the Motor
Vehicle Inspection Division,
has a crew of 26 trained
Georgia State Troopers who
will supervise all official
inspection stations, as a pre
caution against any possible
irregularities or violations
of the intent of this law.
It is a fact that many traf
fic accidents have been oc
casioned by the failure of
some mechanical part of the
motor vehicle which could
not be singled out following
a crash where one or more
cars were all but complete
ly demolished. We would
therefore, urge our members
to begin now to have their
cars safety checked and not
wait until January first. It
is altogether possible that
many of our cars and trucks
may have some minor de
fects which could be easily
corrected, but which, if neg
lected, could become a threat
to safety. By attending to this
now, we will save time when
we take our cars in later for
the compulsory inspection.
In Newton County, ap
proximately 5 authorized in
spection stations will be
established, and will be
plainly marked. Let’s be
wise and have our cars safe
ty checked now, so we will
move through the inspection
lanes after the first of the
year without unnecessary
delay. There is no better
habit to acquire than that of
Safety checking our cars at
regular intervals.
Keep in mind that the
sole purpose of the compul
sory Vehicle Inspection Law
is to reduce traffic acci-

VITAMIN FACTS
Vitamins are found in
common, everyday foods.
They are not special medi
cines. In most instances, it
is unnecessary to buy vit
amins in expensive prepara
tions or “special health
foods.”
A good variety of food in
cluded in the daily diet will
assure that you receive the
quota of vitamins as a so
called normally healthy in
dividual. A well-balanced
daily diet provides all vit
amin requirements for main
taining good health. Os cour
se, in certain disease con
ditions or in infancy or dur
ing pregnancy, the physician
is likely to prescribe speci
fic vitamin supplements.
Vitamins are chemical
compounds. Several of them,
necessary only in small
quantities, are known to be
essential to life. Other vit
amins are essential to proper
growth during childhood and
to .maintain health through
out life.
Vitamins are known as ac
cessory food factors. They
are not used in building
tissues or as a source of
energy. However, they are
necessary for the processes
by which other foods become
tissues and supply energy.
Any of the vitamins can
be extracted from the foods
in which they occur natural
ly, and some can be made
synthetically. Either single
vitamins or several may be
prescribed by the physician
as medicine to correct an
’ existing deficiency or to
prevent such a deficiency.
Vitamins are of great
. value for individuals who
can’t take a regular diet, or
-for those who need especial-
ly large amounts of one or
more vitamins.
Certains vitamins supple
ments may be prescribed by
the physician to insure opti
! mum nutrition in infants and
a young children.

Tests A New
Army Vehicle
LUDWIGSBURG, UE R
MANY — Army PFC Joseph

tion, repeal and resklessness
which the United States, and
particularly the South, has
not been exposed to since
John Brown and his aboli
tionists decended upon us
over 100 years ago.
“Today we are confronted
by another abolitionist who
calls himself a conservative.
In reality, the junior senator
from Arizona opposes con
serving most of the major
governmental programs of
our entire generation. He is
not in favor of the status
quo ... he is out to dis
mantle the modern state.”
After giving Goldwater
and his running mate, Rep.
William Miller of New York,
a verbal going over, the
Georgia governor declared:
“My friends, the Democ
ratic Party’s past record of
success has been attained
neither by the ideas of con
servatism alone nor by the
goals of pure liberalism; nor
by adherence to the doct
rines of any single political
creed or faith.
“It is in this spirit that
our party has advanced
throughout the history of
our country — dedicated to
no wing or faction, but com
mitted to the truth . . . and
to the future.”
The National Democratic
Committee also announced
that Mrs. Lyndon Johnson
will make a tour and speak
at Savannah, Waycross, Val
dosta and Thomasville. She
will be accompanied by Mrs.
Herman Talmadge, Mrs.
Carl Sanders and Mrs. Ern
est Vandiver.
Also, President Lyndon
Johnson, the Democratic
nominee will speak at the
Little White House at Warm
Springs in late October.
Many of the state’s promi
nent Democratic leaders
will be on hand for that oc
casion.

EMORY RAT WEEK
Whew! Whatta Week! We
can hear them in years to
come telling their grand
children about “Rat Week
At Emory-at-Oxford.” They
do things in a big way al
ways, at Emory.
The Boys were kept up
most of nights performing
useless tasks . . . such as
digging a mud pit . . . Wore
coats, ties, shirs and pajama
bottoms to breakfast one
morning . . . The Girls . . .
well they did not get much
sleep either . . . they were
aroused at various hours of
the night; made to dress and
sing or take exercise . . .
Sure they had to serve as
waitresses in the dining hall
too.
Saturday was RAT Day!
All were taken to the athletic
field . . there was a wheel
barrow race; then . . so help
me, you should have seen
them after they had the
works . . pretty blond and
brunette “hair - dos” were
lathered with shaving cream,
honey, syrup, powder . . .
well they used a little shoe
polish too, me thinks!
Rat Dance . . . Ah they
all enjoyed this on Satur
day night . . . three fresh
man boys and three Fresh
man girls were crowned to
reign over the dance. Did
they have fun? You just ask
any one of them! Emory-at-
Oxford is a happy place to
live have fun, study hard,
