Susan Cooper Is Busy
Training For GS Roundup
Susan Cooper, senior Girl
Scout member of Troop 8745, is
looking forward with great an
ticipation to the Girl scout
Round-Up which will be held at
Athol, Idaho, on July 16 for two
weeks. Susan has been in the
Girl Scout program for nine
years. Mrs. C. W. Mosely was
her leader from the first year
of Brownies through the eighth
grade, during which time Susan
earned the necessary badges as
well as her curve bar. She has
always had great interest in the
Girl Scout program. Mrs. B. J.
Matocha has been and is the
advisor for the senior scout troop
of which Susan is a member.
In the spring of 1964, Susan's
desire to attend the Counselor
in-Training program at Camp
Timber Ridge for four weeks
became a reality. “It’s an ex
perience I wish every Girl Scout
could have,*’ said Susan upon
her return from the CIT program.
The four weeks at Timber

Not a game
of chance
It takes skill to fit community and in
dustry to each other. Each man in our
industrial development division works
hard at this job.
With his head full of ideas, his brief
case full of facts, he travels tens of
thousands of miles yearly to find new
industries for Georgia.
In 1964 the state again fared well. A
total of 229* firms built new plants or ex
panded existing ones in our service area.
These industries represent S2OO mil
lion of capital investment, 13,000 new
jobs and an annual payroll of more than
$44 million.
Industrial development takes know
how. And teamwork. The Georgia
Power Company continues coordinating
its efforts with state agencies, chambers
of commerce and other business con
cerns. The common goal is a brighter
future for our state.
* Each industry represents a capital invest
ment of (50,000 or more and employs 10
or more icorkers.

Ridge inspired her to want to
go to the Round-Up. Having had
the Counselor-In-Training, cer
tainly was a big factor for Susan’s
being chosen for the Round-Up.
The training and experience she
had at Timber Ridge during the
four weeks helped in various
“tests” she needed to qualify for
the Round-Up. Before leaving In
July, Susan along with 30 Girl
Scouts from the area, will meet
twice a month--once for a dis
cussion and once for camping
out at \\ indy Water- it \lUtoon.i.
Roundup Coordinator is Mrs.
Arnold Constable of Marietta;
Assistant Coordinator, Miss
Henrietta Barnett of Smyrna; and
Trainers include Mrs.C. A. May,
Miss Marian Oates, Miss Helen
Smathers and Miss Ann Ketchtn.
Mrs. Keith Wilson of Marietta
will act as Hostess for the Round
up and will be at the train sta
tion when girls come to Atlanta
from the various sections of the
state to leave for Idaho. Mrs.
Alice Harbin of Marietta has
charge of the equipment and Mrs.
Marion Nelson of Cobb County
will serve as Nurse.
Two girls from Canada will
come to Atlanta three weeks
before Roundup to join the pat
rols — 32 girls, 4 patrols. The
Girl Scouts will leave for Idaho
on July 12 from Atlanta and
arrive at Yellowstone National
Park, July 15 to spend the day.
They will arrive at Athol on July
16. Approximately 10,000 Girl
Scouts are expected from
throughout the world, as this is
an international program.
Troop $745 says “Congratula
tions and best wishes Susan!
We are mighty glad you are one
of us.” Susan is the first Scout
to have ever attended the Coun
selor-in-Training program and
the first to go to the Roundup
from Newton County. It is hoped
many more Girl Scouts will have
the opportunity to have the won
derful training and experience
that Susan is now having and
planning.
Susan la the daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. Stone Cooper of Cov
ington.
Support Strong
For Keeping Ga.
Auto Check Law
ATLANTA, (GPS>—“Leave It
alone. Give It a chance to
prove Its worth.”
That, in essence, appears to
sum up the growing reaction to
premature criticism of Geor
gia's new motor vehicle Inspec
tion law. The law, passed by
the last Legislature, became ef
fective Jan. 1, but car owners
have until July 1 to comply with
its provisions.
Between now and June 30 every
Georgia owner must have his
vehicle inspected at a state
approved station, must have all
mechanical defects corrected
within five days after the inspec
tion at any place of his choice,
and must return to the station
and receive his windshield safe
ty sticker.
The annual Inspection fee Is
$1.25, with the station receiving
$1 and the state 25 cents to
help pay for the cost of the pro
gram. The primary purpose of
the law is to make cars and
trucks as mechanically safe as
possible with a view toward re
ducing Georgia’s constantly ris
ing traffic death toll.
But even before the law became
effective there were rumblings in
some quarters about weakening
or repealing the law because it
is going to “cause some incon
venience.” However, many
newspapers over the state were
quick to speak out editorially in
favor of giving “the law a
chance.”
Sweet potatoes that are fresh,
bright, dry, and clean are us
ually the best buys, according
to Extension Service specialists.
Slight scars on the skin do not
Injure the flesh of sweet pota
toes, but potatoes that have de
cay spots should be avoided.

three research projects being

than $650,000 to investigators
within their respective states.
In Georgia, grants were made
to Dr. Arend Bouhuys and Dr.
Ross L. McLean at the Emory
