PROPHECY In addition to the Governor’s party. Congresswoman Hazel Sntarr was also to be an honored guest at the ball game next day. Hazel is now the wife of a Columbian but still used her maiden name in politics. Women politicians were becoming quite common in South Carolina, for I discovered that the mayor of Winnsboro was Christine George, and that the former Mary Hollis was now Game Warden As I left the airport I met Riley Brice, who is president of Brice’s National Bank. Riley recognized me and had his chauffeur, Harold Timtns, drive me around the city in his new 20-cylinder Cadillac. The next day Riley sent his car to my hotel and had me driven out to Mount Zion’s new stadium, which seats 79,000. As I went into the stands I bought a ticket from Titmice Pope and Annette Coofer, two career women who help out at all the ball games. Turnice owns a department store, and Net runs the Cutie-Tootie Beauty Salon. Just as I was leaving the ticket window, I passed the new basketball coach, Elizabeth Ramsey. She was talking to the famous radio and screen comedian, Bobby Sims, and Audrey Peake, the confidential secretary to the notorious lawyer Allen George. When 1 left that dis- tinguished group and had spoken to the Rev. James McGill, I hurried to my seat on the two-inch line. The first person I saw was Helle McCants, who was with her large family sitting next to me (Nelle was also large—205 lbs.) Above the racket made by Nell’s sons, 1 recognized the voice of Susanne Shedd who was selling football programs and pennants, Susanne’s husband it seems was the 1969 Wildcat Coach. After watching a very exciting first half which found Mt. Zion leading 54-0, I went over to the drink stand to get a coke. It seems the Mt. Zion Teachers were selling and I noticed Ruth Vender ford, home economics teacher, Doris Christie of the music department, Helen McCants, who teaches literature, Hattie Webb, teacher of commerce, Betty Hartin, girls’ wrestling coach. In the second half coach Branham brought his team to life and all too soon the highscoring game was over (score 54-5 3). I had had a wonderful visit to Winnsboro but my job as chief gardener at the White House was waiting. So I jumped in Farris RandalPs taxi, reached my hotel, paid my bill to Clerk Doris Hardy, just missed getting run over by heiress Betty Loftift, and then took the next helicopter for Washington. —ZAN TURNER, Prophet. into the seeds of time, and which will not.” 25
