Roach Post Of the American Legion.
Rock Hill, will not extend an invitation
to the state department Of the Ameri-
can Legion at Newberry. Thursday, to |
hold the next annual convention in
Rock Hill, it was announced today by
Perry Gill, post commander. The Le-
gionaires. of Rock Hill have had the /
matter under advisement for son1s3
time but most Of the members fralE
came to the conclusion that such con-
vention would be too great problem
for them to handle within the next
twelve months. Therefore the idea has
been abandoned II have talked to a
number of members and they don't
take much to the idea,p said Comman-
der Gill in discussing the matter. Per
sonally l think it would be fine thing. ]
for Rock Hill and elso big boost for
the Legion, provided we go about tin
the right way. But the way the fell
lows feel about it, don't think we hka
better tackle it this year anyway. y
