"Cracker Crumble”
Set For Oct. 16
Prominent state political lead
ers will be on hand October 16 to
see themselves spoofed in the
Georgia Press Association’s
third annual “Cracker Crumble”
show.

grand ballrom of the new Mar
riott Motor Hotel at Courtland
and Caln Streets. A reception
at 6:30 will precede dinner at
7:30 p.m.
The dinner menu features
steaks, but the big attraction of
the evening will be the “roasted
politician” served by a group of
volunteer actors as entertain
ment after dinner.
The show, Georgia’s biggest
annual political satire, is for
the benefit of the Georgia Press
Educational Foundation, Inc.,
which administers the GPA
journalism scholarship fund.

orders may be sent to the Geor
gia Press Educational Founda
tion, 24 Ivy' Street, S.E., Atlanta,
Ga. 30303, with checks payable
to the foundation. Ticket costs
are tax deductible.
East year’s event was a com
plete sellout.
Glenn McCullough, executive
manager of the Georgia Press
Association, said several per
sons prominent on the Georgia
political scene have already ac
cepted invitations to the dinner
and show.

THE COVINGTON NEWS
October 31 Is Deadline For
Car Inspection In Georgia
ATLANTA (GPS)—If you are
one of the nearly one million
Georgia automobile and truck
owners who has not yet obtained
a windshield safety sticker, you’d
better get yours right away. Rea
son: Oct. 31 Is the deadline
for complying with Georgia’s new
motor vehicle inspection law.
“And the deadline absolutely
WILL NOT be extended,” de
clared Col. H. Lowell Conner,
director of the Jitate Department
of Public Safety. “Special or
ders have been issued from our
headquarters to all members of
the State Patrol to begin en
forcing the law Nov. 1.”
This means, Col. Conner ex
plained, that after midnight Oct.
31 state troopers will stop
vehicles bearing Georgia license
tags that do not have official
state safety stickers displayed on
the windshield. They will be
treated like any other traffic
law violator—put under arrest.
“Georgians have had nine
months In which to get their
vehicles inspected and approved,
yet nearly one million of them
are still putting it off,” the
director observed. “Nowtime is
fast running out.”
“However, If they hurry they
can get It done before the dead
line. In many instances, It doesn’t
take any longer or cost anymore
than getting a tank filled up with
gas. There are 2,000 state ap-
