panthers Win, 21-0
The Perry Panthers came out on
the top end of a 21-0 score Friday
n uht as they downed the Mont
gomery County Rebels.
r The Rebels kicked off to the
Panthers, but they were first to
threaten. An intercepted pass
stopped this drive, and they
threatened no more. The Panthers
were unable to score in the first
quarter but scored twice in the
second quarter. Both point-after
attempts were good, and the score
was 14-0 at the half. The Panthers
scored again in the third quarter,
and that ended the, scoring for the
night.
The ballgame was marred by
frequent penalties, most of them
against the Panthers. The Rebels
tried hard and had a good ball
club, but superior coaching and
playing won the game for the Pan
thers.
Ronnie Davis scored two Pan
ther touchdowns, and Russ Mayo
scored the other. Porter Staples
scored for the Panthers once, but
the play was called back because
of one of many penalties.
This week the Panthers are ta
king a rest, but next week they
journey to Vidalia to play a tough
Indian eleven.
9th Graders Win
The Perry High ninth grade
football squad defeated Hawkins
ville, 7-0, last Wednesday after
noon in Perry. Hawkinsville’s line
averaged around 20 pounds more
than Perry’s line. In spite of
weight handicap, the “B” squad
Panthers tallied on a pass and
made the point after touchdown.

Her husband
calls her a genius.
Why? Because she budgets her time and
energy as well as the family income, and
she knows a real value when she sees it.
Proof: She participated in Georgia Power
Company’s home wiring plan that pays from
SSO to S2OO toward the installation of ade
quate service entrance wiring.
Result: This young family is living better
. . . electrically. They are enjoying the com
fort, convenience and economy of adequate
home wiring. And they have the assurance
of “housepower” to handle any electric appli
ances they may add later.
P. S. Why don’t you contact an electrical
contractor, electric appliance dealer or Geor
gia Power Company office for full details on
this wonderful home wiring plan? (There
may be a genius in your family, too!)

score of the game. Tommy White
spectacularly pulled in a Barfield

Isaac Davis was outstanding in

About 'The Club'
The organization known as “the
club” is a vital part of everyone’s
life, especially of those in high
school and college.
A club offers social enjoyment
and entertainment. It gives to its
members a feeling of security that
is so very important to certain
individuals. A club teaches subtle
lessons that are used every day in
the lives of all well-adjusted peo
ple; these lessons are those such
as a good relationship with the
people with whom they come in
contact, good sportsmanship, a
sense of justice, good manners
and politeness, and a love for hu
man beings. A good club builds
and strengthens character. Since
man is a social animal, a club
offers extra-curricular activities,
a sound social life; and it certain
ly breaks the monotony of study.
Os course, there are certain indi
viduals who already have good
character, who love their fellow
men, who have a sense of justice,
and all the other things a club
teaches; but perhaps these persons
don’t know how to get along with
other people. This factor is ex
tremely important to the making
of a character. Without this bit of
common knowledge, one is im
minently doomed to a life void
of friends. There are people who
are the opposites of the aforemen
tioned. These people have
“friends”, perhaps, but lack re
sponsibility, and care nothing oth
er people. These need their ener
gies channelled in away that will
benefit themselves as well as their
community.
But these examples are extreme.
Most people are normal, happy in
dividuals, who enjoy companion
ship, who are polite, who have
friends, and who do not object to
being improved. These are the

Fayette
Formed from Creek Indian lands
in 1821, Fayette became the 49th # '’
county to fly the Georgia flag. Both Fayette County and its
county seat, Fayetteville, were named in honor of the Marquis
de Lafayette, the French nobleman who served as one of
Washington’s chief lieutenants in the Revolutionary War. Origi
nally a larger county which included parts of Clayton and old
Campbell County lands, Fayette now holds 139th position in
size. This northwest central Georgia county has a population of
7,900. Many of its residents enjoy a healthy income from local
farms and woodlands, while others commute to nearby Atlanta
to jobs in a wide variety of industries. Os considerable interest
to tourists is the historic Fayette Court House, an ornate brick
building which ranks among the oldest judicial halls in the
state. Other towns in Fayette County include Tyrone, Woolsey
and Brooks.
In Georgia counties where the sale of beer and ale is legal,
the United States Brewers Association works constantly to as
sure their sale under pleasant, orderly conditions. Believing
that strict law enforcement serves the best interest of the
people of Georgia, the Association stresses close cooperation
with the Armed Forces, law enforcement and governing officials.
