Even if you didn’t know them, it wasn’t very hard to pick them out. They wefe moving through the crowds, shaking hands and dispensing little cards. Issues apparently weren’t discussed very much—there wasn’t time. This was strictly good-will visiting. * * * * * Although there were a few friendly cracks about the influx of politicians at the event it all was really very proper—candidates in a democracy out seeking votes during a July 4 celebration. Besides, they helped swell the sale of Menlo bar becue. ***** Young Barry Alexander of Menlo, who was recov ering satisfactorily from a recent paralysis, suffered an intestinal virus during the week-end and was unable to attend the July 4 celebration which his mother helped plan. The three-year-old stayed a short time but had to be taken home just as the program started at 4 p.m. His mother, Mrs. Emory Alexander, as president of the U&a^^eptrTeaqhgiL Assn,, had pyt much time and planning into the program but was unable to see it. She chose to be with her sick child. * * * * * There was an unexpected question by a certain Chattooga County five-year-old after his parent re turned home from the Menlo celebration of the na tion’s birthday: “Mommy, was Mr. Khrushchev there?” ***** The bank seems to be the place for losing things recently. Someone lost a good size collection of trading stamps there recently and Bank President D. L. Mc- Whorter is looking for their owner. ♦*■ * * * It was only natural that the pulp magazine writers latch onto the sensational Easter Sunday slaying of a teen-age couple in Walker County. As a result, at least two of these magazines have or are carrying stories and pictures about the killing and the subsequent trial of Blevins. Included are pictures of Chattooga County’s Earl B. Self, solicitor and chief prosecutor in the trial, Jack Knott, GBI agent who worked on the case, and At torney Bobby Lee Cook, special prosecutor. Judge S. W. Fariss also is pictured. In addition, True Detective has honored Agent Jack Knott with a citation as one of the outstanding law enforcement officers in the nation in 1963. ***** Chattooga County has a number of native sons and daughters who have done well for themselves. But few have done so well as has Reese Cleghorn. The 34-year-old Lyerly native last week was named associate editor of The Atlanta Journal. He had already established for himself an enviable record in the field of journalism, having held a high position with Associated Press in New York, having edited and published his own newspaper in California and having had articles published in such outstanding national magazines as The Saturday Evening Post and Argosy. We join with many other Chattooga Countians ■in .congratulating Mr. Cleghorn on this latest ad vancement and extend best wishes for his continued success. the use of pellon and the way to line collars, cuffs, etc. with pellon, using the lighter grade for button holes and the regular quality for collars.
