Tutor, manager said. The engineers report, Mr.. Tu tor said, that the Joy Installation' should be one of the best in the South with the excellent acous tics in the new building. Cinemascope utilizes photogra phy with lenses that give the most natural perception and an amorphic lenses attached to the projectors gives the viewer a cer tain amount of depth without use of glasses. Stereophonic sound utilizes four sound tracks and adds re alism and direction to sotind. It improves the acoustic character of the space around the perform ers and the overall sound quail-! ty and naturalness are greatly ' improved. "The Joy Theatre now has Just as good projection and sound as you will find any where," Mr, Tutor said.

Price Support Loans Depend On Storage Cleveland County small grain producers who Intend to take ad vantage of government price sup port loans on this year's harvest should be giving serious consider ation to the problem of obtaining the necessary storage space. Howard Clapp, Cleveland Coun ty farm agent for the State Col lege Extension Service, reminds farmers that it is their responsi bility to provide storage, either on the farm or in commercial space, before they can obtain government loans. And even though they do not plan to apply for a loan, inability to find spacte at the last moment can lead to the necessity for dumping crops on the market at harvest time when prices are often as much as 70 cents below their normal levels for later in thte year. The question of storage space is particularly important this year, says Mr. Clapp, because na tional carryovers from last year plus this year's production are expected to result in the greatest total supply of grain and oilseeds we have ever had. This will un doubtedly strain all existing sto rage facilities, despite the fact that the government has taken steps to expand space through use of thte "Mothball fleet" to hold stocks owned by the Com modity Credit Corporation and building of 100,000,000 bushels ad ditional CCC bin space, aB well as through an occupancy guaran tee program to encourage build ing of additional commercial ele vators. Current estimates indi cate that there may bfe a shortage of storage space amounting to 150 to 250 million bushels. The answer for many farmers is to provide space on their own farms sufficient to house their own crops. Information about the type of facilities which would best metet their needs can be obtained from the county agent. Informa tion about special loans available to finance new facilities or. re model existing buildings can be obtained from the county ASC Committee at Shelby.
