On Cancer Monday.
Those who feel that cancer
is a distant threat may be
shocked to find that. between
the years of 1960 and 1968,
81 persons in Bryan County
were victims of this disease.
Even more distressing is the
American Cancer Society’s re
port that 41 of those now
gone might still be living
among us had they received
earlier treatment.
Through the efforts of Mrs.
Gwen Turner, Early Treat
‘ment Education Chairman of
the American Cancer ‘Society’s
program in Bryan Cbunty,
action is being taken to edu
cate the public as to means
of early detection and treat
ment for the disease.
The Bryan County Jay
cettes, along with a number
of other organizations in the
county, are co-operating with
Mrs. Turner in her public
education program.
Monday night, October 20,
at 7:30 p.m., at the Pembroke
Fire Station social hall, Mrs.
Turner will show an educa
tional cancer film at the reg
ular Jaycette meeting. Mrs.
Montene Cowart, Jaycette
president, urges all mothers
and daughters, and women of
all ages, to attend the meeting.
The film will be of special in-
terest to mothers and daugh
ters as to detection methods
and means of better cures for
cancer. ‘
The film will last approx
imately 15 minutes and Mrs.
Turner will have literature
available to all who are pre
sent,
Disabled Retirees
Should Apply For
VA Compensation
Pete Wheeler, State Veter
ans Director, said today that
- large numbers of military re
tirees fail to apply for Veter
ans Administration disability
compensation each year be
cause they mistakenly believe
they will lose their military
retirement benefits if they do.
“This is particularly true of
veterans who retire from the .
Armed Services because of
disability. These veterans may
be losing money.” he said.
Mr. Wheeler explained that"
even though full retirement
pay cannot be paid in addi
tion to compensation, the vet
eran has the right to elect
whichever benefit is greater
and may switch from one
benefit to the other whenever
it is to his advantage to do so.
Waiver of retirement pay
to draw VA compensation
does not affect the basic re
tirement benefits such as
commissary privileges and de
pendent medical care.
Severely disabled enlisted
men generally will receive
greater financial benefits by
electing VA compensation o
ver retirement.
Other VA compensation
benefits a retired disabled vet
eran should consider include
additional allowance for de
pendents if he is rated 50%
or more disabled and educa
tional benefits for his wife
and children if he is rated
100% permanently and totally
disabled.
Further details on these
and other veterans’ benefits
are available from the nearest
field office of the Georgia
Department of Veterans Ser
vice.

* going to be quite interesting to
_ discover whether that bag limit
~of 18 per day on doves has had
~much of an effect at all on the
. number of doves harvested this
" year.
Most certainly, there will be
an increase in the Kkill, but just
how much is uncertain. Now
that the first segment of the

. Speaking only for myself,
“ surely more birds were taken
- on opening day. Lucky to get
. on an exceptionally good hunt,
. I very nearly limited out. There
; really was no excuse for my not
¢ limiting out, only some
_ first-day eagerness, I suppose,
_resulting in some shooting I'm
_ notespecially proud of.
. I hunted with three other
; fellows, Bob Ingram who

hunting clothes; Joe Harrell
"~ and Kevin Heeney. Joe is a
- crackshot and limited out early
® in the afternoon. Kevin and
- Bob did their share of damage,
too.
Yet, from reports I got
around the state, really good
shoots were quite hard to find.
I hunted two other Saturday’s
during the season, sampling
South Georgia hunting in
Berrien County near Nashville,
Georgia, the second weekend
of the season and then closing
out the first phase of the season
the last day, at Red Bone Farms
Shooting Preserve near
Bamesville.

complained of not having
hunting as good as hoped for,
yet I found in the short two
hours that I hunted there, that
there were ample birds.
Nonetheless, in those two
hunts, I didn’t get a total up to
last year’s limit for one day.
Os course, there are always
those unsportsmanlike,
unsavory, selfish gamehogs
who shoot over the limit.
They'll do this, regardless of
the limit.
On the other side of the .
ledger, I was told that one
hunting club (I still can’t call
them ““sportsmen”), which had
a reputation for exceeding the
limit, chose this year to stay
within the limit. There may
have been other similiar groups,
thus the limit of 18 may in
some cases actually have
reduced the kill this year.
It’s good to see that at least
some sense is coming into their
heads, and some progress is
being made in their thinking.
It's hard to realize, however,
what it was that took them so
long to realize thatif they’re to
continue to have good hunting,
they’re going to have to obey
game laws, whether or not
someone is looking over their
shoulders.
Os course, all the figures
aren't in yet, and won’t be until
months after the final season.
And that final season may be
quite different from the first,
especially in South Georgia
where the shooting is always
better during the longer second
portion of the season.
Let’s hope that whatever
happens, more facts will come
to light, and help game
managers find the answers to
producing more and better
game populations.

Famous Locomotive
Arriving On U.S. Tour
ATLANTA (PRN) — The
first steam locomotive ever to
achieve an official speed of 100
miles per hour, the world
famous Flying Scotsman, will
arrive in Atlanta on Thursday,
October 30.
The 100-ton coal burner,
now is winding its way from
Boston, making stops in major
cities. The Flying Scotsman is
coupled to a unique nine-car
British-American trade
exhibition for the historic
2200-mile “whistle-stopping”
rail trip.
The legendary Flying
Scotsman, manned by a British
and American crew, will be on
Track B, Terminal Station in
Atlanta through November 1.
Condemned to the junk
yard five years ago, the famous
locomotive was saved by
English millionaire industrialist
and life-long train buff, Alan
Pegler, whose other dedication
has been improving
British- American trade.
In addition to the
locomotive, the train consists
of a second tender built
especially for this trip, four
exhibition cars, the two
Edwardian royal Pullman
coaches used by Prime Minister
Churchill and General
Eishenhower during World War
11, and a glass-walled
observation car, which has been
converted into an Edwardian
Commission To Study
Georgia Coastal Plains
ATLANTA (PRN) -
Expanding agricultural
production in Georgia’s Coastal
Plains will be the subject of a
federal feasibility study,
according to Governor Lester
Maddox. The study is now
being undertaken by the
Coastal Plains Regional
Commission in Georgia, North
and South Carolina. Maddox is
States Co-Chairman of the
commission.
Based on prior studies, the
future is limited for expansion
of traditional cash crops of
tobacco, cotton and peanuts.
The six-month study is
designed to. verify the
comparative advantage of
switching to the production of
certain fruits and vegetables for
which demand is increasing
nationwide, according to the
Governor.
State Planning Officer H.
Oliver Welch said that the
project will be coordinated by
Dr. Leigh H. Hammond, North
Carolina Field Director for the
Coastal Plains Regional
Commission. Serving as
consultants will be Dr. Steve
Brennen, Department of
Agriculture Economics,
University of Georgia; Dr. W.
Joe Lanham, Department of
Agricultural Economics,
Clemson University; and Dr. E.
A. Proctor, Department of
Economics, North Carolina
State University. Welch is the
Governor’s alternate on the
Coastal Plains Regional
Commission.
“Specifically, the project
will be conducted in three
phases. The first phase will

Cracker Crumble To Be
In Atlanta November 1
ATLANTA (PRN) — The
Cracker Crumble, an annual
‘‘roasting” of Georgia
politicians, will have its single
Atlanta performance
November 1 at the Regency
Hyatt House Hotel.
The show is sponsored by
the Georgia Press Association
for the benefit of the Georgia
Press Educational Foundation.
GPA Manager Glenn
McCullough announced that
the cast is currently involved in
rehearsals for the variety show
and that many tickets have
already been sold.
“This year's show covers a
multitude of sins and no term
will be left unstoned,” he
added.
Joe Parham, editor of The
Macon News, will serve as
toastmaster for the evening's
activities.
Many Georgia politicians
have indicated they plan to
attend the event which will be
held in the Phoenix Ballroom
of the Regency.
“We are looking forward to
having Governor Maddox, Lt.

London’s famous brewers.
The Atlanta region Jaycees
will sell tickets as part of the
unique British-American trade
promotion. Train buffs,
youngsters and the general
public will be able to view the
exhibition and to stand on the
footplate (the cab of the
engine), as well as obtain a
special souvenir book. Tickets
may be ordered from Flying
Scotsman, Box 566, Decatur,
Ga. 30031, for $1 per adult and
.50c per child. .
About 10 thousand gallons
of water will be pumped into
the two tenders of the Flying
Scotsman every . 175 miles
along the route by local fire
companies who will meet her at
trackside. Special anthracite
coal has been dumped along the
right of way of 300-mile
intervals - where it will be
shoveled aboard by hand.
The Flying Scotsman has
been outfitted with an
American brass bell and brass
whistle, the gifts of W. Graham
Claytor, Jr., president of the
Southern Railway System,
which is headquartered in
Washington, D.C. Another
addition is a genuine
cow-catcher, which is foreign in
Britain but familiar in America
to those who remember the
steam locomotive.
which the Region has a
comparative production and
marketing advantage,” Welch
explained.
“After the commodities are
identified, an analysis of the
demand will be conducted to
determine the limits of
production feasibility and the
third phase will involve
identifying the exact nature of
the production and marketing
institutions within the Region
and factors influencing levels of
both.”
When completed, the results
of the study will be
disseminated to organizations
and agencies responsible for the
development of agri-business
within the Region. The study
will also be used to interest
food processors in locating
facilities that can take
advantage of new sources of
supply that are expected to be
generated by the project,
according to Charles Coss,
Executive Director of Coastal
Plains Regional Commission.
The study is being funded
by the Coastal Plains Regional
Commission at a cost of
$30,000. Georgia’s share is
about SIO,OOO. The
Commission, created in 1967,
is a Federal-State partnership
working to bring about
accelerated economic growth
in the Coastal Plains of the
three states. The Coastal Plains
Regional Commission is
designed to bring the Federal
government into an effective
alliance with State and local
governments in a full-scale
effort to close the “income
gap” in the 159-county Coastal
Plains Region.
Governor Smith, former
Governor Sanders, Senator
Talmadge, and many other
distinguished Georgians at the
dinner. Some of the gentlemen
may be taking an active part in
the show,” added McCullough.
The Cracker Crumble is not
a closed event and members of
the public are welcome to
attend.
“While we of the press put
the show on and the politicians
take the brunt of the kidding,
the show is really for the
general public. We anticipate a
record turn-out for this year’s
event, especially in view of
ticket sales to date,” said
McCullough.
Tickets may be obtained
from the Georgia Press
Association offices at 1075
