Frost and freezing tempera
tures have come to the coastal
area. This means more work
for the gardener. Begin now on
digging and storing those tend
er bulbs and tubers for thq
winter.
Cleanup time is at hand
again. Besides the leaf raking
chore, the cleaning up of dead
tops of annuals and vegetables
and cutting back of old tops of
lilies and perennials should be
done so that these old tops
won’t harbor insects and dis
eases through the winter
months. Os course the garden
looks better when it’s neat and
clean, too.
Fall and winter is the time
to plant fruit trees and other
deciduous trees and shrubs.
Bare root plants will soon be
arriving on nursery lots or may
be ordered for mail delivery.
These Indian summer days
we’re having are perfect for
dividing perennials and replant
ing them before really cold
weather sets in.
Indoor bulb planting, done
right away, will produce bios-

R. H. Methodist
Church Barbecue
Colossal Success
That marvelous Southern
delicacy, barbequed pork, has
never tasted better than it did
Saturday night at the annual
barbeque of the Richmond Hill
Methodist Church; nor have so
many people ever attended be
fore. All the food was so good,
and the fellowship was wonder
ful. Many out-of-town relatives
and friends came for the occa
sion.
Mrs. John Heilman, chairman
of the project, said that over
one thousand dinners were sold,
over 600 of which were deliver
ed as take-outs.
Meat by the pound was sold
too, and many people bought
whole barbequed hams.
Rev. Claud Cook, church
pastor, remarked that the pit
would probably have to be made
bigger for next year's barbe
quing, as more people come
every year.

WILDKITTENS
The Richmond Hill Wildkit- j
tens opened their basketball ,
season against Ludowici on No- ]
vember 4. They lost a hard ,
fought battle 30 to 33. ,
The following Friday night
in Darien, it was a different
story. The Wildkittens took a
27 to 48 victory. ■
On November 11, while host
irg St. Vincent’s Academy,
Richmond Hill girls took their
second victory of the season
38 to 41.
Brenda Davis leads the girls
in points with an average of
26.6 per game, followed by
Yvonne Holland with 8 and
Debra Darieng with 4.
R. H. “B” TEAM
Tuesday night, the Richmond
Hill “B” team, coached by
Sonny Begley, played host to
the Marvin Pittman "B” team.
The young Wildcats jumped to
a quick lead and were never
challenged. The final score was
52-10.
Richmond Hill was led by
Calvin Sheppard with 16 points,
James Blige with 9 and Frank
Clark with 7. James Jones led
the losers with 6.
WILDCATS BEAT RAMS
On November 4, the Rich
mond Hill Wildcats opened
their season against the Ludo
wici Blue Tide. After a close
first half, Ludowici broke away
in the third quarter. Unable to
recover, the Wildcats lost 49-
33.
In their next action on No
vember 7, the Wildcats lost
again. Hampered by a lack of
height, they were unable to
keep up with the taller Darien
team, going down by a score of
66-45.
While hosting the Marvin
Pittman Rams on November 12,
the Wildcats made a second
half comeback to beat the Rams
50-33. Leading by a score of
21 to 19 at halftime, they set
tled down and played the game.
The team as a whole plays a
good defensive game. As men
tioned lack of height is a dis
advantage; also Gary Bashlor,
an excellent rebounder, is out
with an injured knee. Consider
ing size, the tean . ows a large
amount of rebounding power
fund are expected to progress as
they gain experience.

Special Speaker
The special high school as
sembly, held last Friday morn
ing created much interest
among students and teachers
alike.

message; after which he talked
to the students on the delicate
balance of nature, pointing out
the fact that every animal on

. Jones Urges
School Use Os
‘ State Surplus
■~' .a
SAVANNAH, Ga. PRN-
State Rep. Charles M. Jones
says the state surplus now
building up should allow
Georgia to make “a real dent
in our educational needs next
year without a tax increase. I
This will be true if the state
appropriates to education next
year “a large percentage” of
the extra funds available, he ,
said.
“It now
appears the
state will
have at
least $124
m illion--
perhaps
m ore--in
funds to
appropriate
for the next
fiscal year,”
i J7
■ML
REP. JONES
he said. “We can do a lot for
education if we use the bulk
of this money for that
purpose.”
Jones, House Majority
Whip who is a possible
candidate for lieutentant
governor next year, said:
“This won’t solve all our
problems, but it will be a
commitment to the belief that
improving the quality of
education is the number one ■
objective of our state.”
Declaring that “education
is the springboard for virtually
all progress,” he predicted”
the 1970 General Assembly
will be as concerned about
education as any legislative
body that has ever met in
Georgia.”
Jones said he feels
statewide kindergarten should
get top priority in education,
but listed other priority items
as a teacher pay raise,
reduction of the pupil-teacher
ratio and more emphasis on
vocational technical training in
high schools.
