SALUTING THE NATIONAL BETA CLUB, WHICH WAS FOUNDED IN LANDRUM IN SPARTANBURG COUNTY, ON ITS SIXTY-FIFTH ANNIVERSARY AND DECLARING THE WEEK OF MARCH 1-7, 1999, AS NATIONAL BETA CLUB WEEK.

Whereas, the National Beta Club was formed in Landrum in Spartanburg County on January 8, 1934, and is celebrating its sixty-fifth anniversary this year; and

Whereas, Landrum High School's Beta Club is the "mother chapter" of the national organization; and

Whereas, the national organization was established by the late Dr. John West Harris, a Spartanburg County native and later a professor at Wofford College; and

Whereas, before the year 1934 was over, nine chapters of the Beta Club were functioning; and

Whereas, in 1999, Beta Club chapters continue striving to promote leadership and good citizenship and to recognize and encourage academic success among high school students; and

Whereas, the National Beta Club, with its very high standards and worthy goals and, acting through its outstanding local chapters across the country, has had a truly positive impact on the success and accomplishments of our great nation for the past six and one-half decades; and

Whereas, the National Beta Club's celebration of its sixty-fifth birthday is an occasion highly deserving of recognition. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:

That the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina, by this resolution, salutes the National Beta Club, which was founded in Landrum in Spartanburg County, on its sixty-fifth anniversary and declares the week of March 1-7, 1999, as National Beta Club Week.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to the National Beta Club in care of Mr. George W. Lockamy, Executive Director, 151 West Lee Street, Spartanburg, South Carolina 29306-3012.
