Sen. Brooks Pennington Says
Agri-Business In For Boom
The next decade will see the
beginning of the greatest "Rural
Boom” this country has ever
known. With this boom will come
tremendous opportunities for
people connected with the "Agri
businesses”.
This may be hard for the young
person of today to accept - since
the short range outlooks for some
agriculture fields are indeed
grim - but the boom is coming.
Those young people with fore
sight who do prepare for it - will
reap big dividends by their train
ing in great organizations such as
our FFA, FHA and our agri
cultural institutions. They will be
in position to avoid the blunders
others will make, and reap the
benefits of their training.
The population explosion is the
key to the boom, up 20 million by
1970, 40 million by 1975. This
tremendous increase in people
above our present 192 million
will open up new markets for

This "Rural Boom” will mean

The non farming part of our
rural economy will boom, too.
Believe it or not "Kiplinger”
predicts by the early 1970’s more
people will be moving out of the
cities to the rural areas than will
be moving in. Our rural popula

SEC RETS EXPOSED
In modern “American Style”
architecture, a home is decorated
largely by exposed wood struc
tural members—beams, decking,
rafters, columns and the like.
According to the Southern Pine
Association, some vital secrets
of sound construction are ex
posed along with the framework.
Nowhere is quality more impor
tant than in the framing lumber
which holds the home together.
High strength, pre-shrinking and
other factors which are essen
tial to structural integrity also
assure excellent appearance.
The latter has stimulated ex
posure of the wood structural
form in contrast to traditional
practice in which the framing Is
hidden from view.
Davidson College Ensemble To
Appear Here On Monday Night
The Davidson College Wind
Ensemble from Davidson, North
Carolina, is currently on its
annual tour and will play here
at 8:15 on Monday Feb. Ist at
NCHS Auditorium. This en
semble of 35 selected men, di
rected by Dr. Grier M. Williams,
has earned for itself a coveted
reputation during its more thana
quarter century of concertizing.
In addition to its normal acti
vities of campus concerts and
radio broadcasts, it has perform
ed throughout the Eastern Sea
board on tour and has been se
lected to perform for numerous
district and national conventions
of musicians and teachers.
The members comprise a
board area of the student body
and represent almost every de
partment of the Presbyterian col
lege. Though vocational prefer
ences among the group are vari
ed, the general trend of potential
professions seems to be toward
scientific pursuits.
Former members of the David
son Ensemble hold Important
teaching positions In music
schools throughout the nation and
are members of some of our
major symphony orchestras.
A broad geographic area is
represented by the membership
as well. Members hail from
Colorado, Maryland, New York,
Florida, Massachusetts, Virgin
ia, Georgia, North and South
Carolina, Tennessee, Washing
ton, D. C., and Kansas.
The program to be given is
a varied one and includes works
from both the classical and popu
lar band repertory. Soloists will
be Dick Vines, clarinetist, and
David Hoag, marimba player.
As part of the outstanding
music program at Davidson Col

Freshman’s-lye
View Given
Rotary Club
An interesting and informative
"freshman’s-eye view” of Geor
gia’s Legislature was given Ro
tarians, by Newton County’s Post
No. 2 Representative Otis Spil
lers, at their Teen-Can meeting
on Tuesday.
Prior to introduction of the
speaker, Dr. James Purcell, Ro
tary President, welcomed those
present, and gave a resume of
the pending Medicare Program.
He stressed the negative aspects
of the Bill, and explained the na
tional and local Medical Associa
tion’s objection to the plan, which
is considered by those groups
not only a deterring factor to the
lust practice of medicine; but,
falls to cover a great deal of
care, which the public at large
seems to think it will.
Dr. Dallas Tarkenton, program
chairman, introduced Rep. Spil
lers, who gave a run-down on the
Re-apportionment Bill which he
Introduced in the House of Re
presentatives. With the flood
of controversy and criticism
evoked by the Motor Vehicle
Inspection Bill, Mr. Spillers pre
dicted major amendments to the
measure, or outright repeal.
In reviewing his experiences as
a Freshman Representative, the
speaker termed them "exciting,
challenging and fascinating”.
Prior to the meeting's adjourn
ment, Dr. Tarkenton announced
that next Tuesday's program
would be given over to a business
meeting.
