Stote Ups Minimum Requirements
For High Schools; Loris High
Apparently Con Meet Standards

New and revised standards
for accrediting South Caro-.
lina's high schools have beer
adopted by the State Board o.
Education, as a further SteE
toward providing a pattern OF
quality secondary education il
the state.
A study of the revised stand
ards indicates that LoriS Hi9f
School now meets most of them
and can, without too much diff
fiCulty, meet the rest.
The term "accreditatiOn"
as used here means aCcredi-
tation by the State Board of
Education - not accredita-
ton by the Southern AsSocia-
ton Of Colleges and Second
airy Schools.
Only Conway and Myrtle
Beach high schools i'm Horny
county meet the standards of
the Southern Association but
there are indications an eff
fort may be begun here next
year to bring LOris hign
school up to these standards
procedure that would
take at least two years.
The revised standards of tn"
State Board of Education, de-
Vclopcd comparatively by local
school personnel and the State
Department of Education staff,
have the effect OF law for the
government of public high
schools throughout South Caro-
lima.
So, in meeting them, LoriS
high school will be meeting
only the bare minimum al
lOwable by the state. With
less than that il could not
even award a diploma upon
graduation.
The four major new stand
ards are as follow.

Tribute
Continued from page u

Ard, as young Americans of
1862, the youngsters followed
Billy Lacks lead in the pledge
to the American flag just before
the blowing of Taps.
The children placed flowers on
the base OF the memorial shaft
which stands in the middle of
the cemetery. Then they filed
out to the cars their parents
had brought them in, followed
by tht quiet little knot of adults.
The boys there sleep on alone
in the shaded, circular dell that
is their burial place. They were
brought there a hundred years
ago, but theirs is an honored
memory where it seemed good
to plant thoughts of a coura-
geous and cherished past in
the minds of young people.

Over one million persons =
disabled workers and their depen-
dents are receiving nearly 68
million dollars each month I'M
der the social security disability
insurance program. Only long
lasting Gripping diseases and
severe disabilities which make
a person unable to engage in any
substantial gainful employment
are covered. In addition to meet
ing the disability requirements
a person must have worked in
employment covered under So
cial security for five years in a
10-year period ending when they
were disabled. Your social Sc
curity office has a pamphlet,
Number 80 entitled If You Be
come Disabled" fully explaining
these requirements, which is
free for the asking.
At the present time over so
million people have worked long
enough in employment covered
by social security to qualify for
cash disability benefits if they
become disabled.
Before November 1860, dis
abled workers and their Deepen
dents could receive these disa-
bility payments only if the work
er was 80 years of age or older.
However, changes in the law
now provide for payments to
workers and their dependents
regardless of age, if they are
otherwise entitled. The program
paid cash disability payments to
over 100000 persons, under age
so, in the six months after these
amendments became effective
These payments amounted to
III cash benefits. Disabled chill
dren, over age Is. of retired, de-
ceased, or disabled workers may
also receive cash disability bene-
fits if their disabilities began be-
fore age 49, More than $4,000
such disabled adult, sons and
daughters who became disabled
prior to age 10, are receiving a
total of over five million dollars
each month.
The risk of disability was the
last to be covered under the So
cial security system. Each legis-
lative year SINCE 1854, when dis
ability coverage was enacted,
amendments h ave broadened
coverage and provided addition
al benefits to disabled workers
and their dependents. The 1861
amendments to the social securi-
ty law extended the time for fill
ing for disability benefits to
June 30, 1862 Workers with long
standing disabilities may lose all
or some of their rights to these
benefits if they do not apply for
them before Ju:le 80 1862.
All disabled worker are

were landed In Cuba because
Of disorders there.
Not all the turbulence was
in politics or international
affairs. Labor-union disturb
ances were big in the news.
A two-month strike Of tex
tile workers in Massachusetts,
was characterized by consid-
cradle violence. Only a few
months before-in 1911-the
Times Building in Los An
geles had been dynamited
and destroyed as 81 persons
lost their lives. This writer
had covered the trial of the
Mcnamara brothers, leaders
of the International Union of
Construction Workers, who
confessed their guilt. One was
sentenced to life imprison-
ment and the other. to Is
years in jail.
It may seem surprising to
many people today, but
a Republican administration
often referred to as stand
pat or conservative did order
the Department of Justice in
1912 to take action against
the merger Of the Southern
Pacific and Union Pacific
railroads, and the courts
agreed.
Subjects for treatment by
the literary world in the year
1912 were not much different
from today, as Dorothy Can
fields novel, The Squirrel
Cage, raised a protest
against the sitting life in
which men are consumed by
money-getting and women
by social obligations"
Nor was the world of the
dance much different then,
though they didn't call it the
twist" The ragtime music
fad brought out a series of
what were called animal
dances" These were de-
nounced in the press and in
the pulpits Of the land.
Among the names given were
the fox trot, the horse trot,
the crab step, the kangaroo
dip, the camel walk, the fish
walk, the chicken scratch,
and the lame duck. But it,
was the grizzly bear and the
bunny hug and the turkey
trot which were the most
popular. Fortunately, or I'M
fortunately, they didn't have
any television then.
