Pace receives diploma 68 years late by Samantha Hurst
O.P. Earle Elementary School in Landrum will host a PTO Open House tonight, Thursday, Aug. 18, from 5:30 - 6:30 p.m. It is also spirit night for the school at Bojangles.
In January 1943, Calvin Pace had all but completed his senior year at Saluda High School. But on Jan. 5 of that year his teenage dream of walking across a stage to receive his diploma was interrupted.
“I was one of the first of the 18-year-olds to be drafted from Saluda as far as I know,” Pace said. “I wanted to actually walk across the stage and do it like the rest, but I was in service and they wouldn’t let you go for nothing.” (Continued on page 3)

Uncle Sam did send him around the world though, Pace said. He found himself in Fort Collins, Colo., in May of 1943. While he was training, his fellow classmates in Saluda were receiving diplomas and preparing to go to work or college. Pace said he did not see combat, but from the base he was stationed at in Burma, he could watch as fighter pilots took off on their way to drop bombs on the enemies. Pace remained in the Air Force until January 1945. When he returned home, he went to work for Duke Power for 32 years before retiring. Pace said it feels good to have official documentation of his graduation from high school. “I thought about it a lot, but that’s all it was – just thoughts.

Faye Farrell, 93, of Jupiter, Fla., and Saluda passed away peacefully in her sleep at her home in Jupiter, Fla., on Saturday, Aug. 6, 2011. Born Faye Marie Pyles in Temple Hills, Md., on April 15, 1918 to Dennis Wilmer Pyles and Nina Theo Pyles, she grew up there and graduated from Oxon Hill High School. She later attended Strayer Business College in Washington, D.C. Faye married her beloved husband, T. Coleman Farrell, on May 26, 1939, and lived in Temple Hills, Md. They traveled the country with Mr. Farrell’s job in the Rural Electrification Administration and later South America and the Philippines with his position at USAID. They retired to Lake Park, Fla., in 1976, splitting time between sunny South Florida and their mountain home in Saluda. They moved their Florida home to Jupiter in 1989. She was a wonderful homemaker and made dear friends wherever she lived. Faye loved cooking, hosting dinner parties and playing bridge with her

August fly fishing: Trout, smallies, carp Believe it or not, there are good opportunities to catch fish in the heat of August. And fish on the fly rod can be a bonus. I spent a little time talking with Heath Cartee of Curtis Wright Outfitters in Saluda. I felt like I was in an advanced level fly fishing course. Heath had and shared a wealth of information in a short amount of time. The only bad thing was my pen would not write fast enough. Heath told me if you are going trout fishing this time of year, go early. Sounds familiar, doesn’t it?
