Campaign, Gubernatorial, 1970 [West vs. Watson]
CLIPPINGS, 1959-2008, are divided into Public and Personal subseries. Public clippings chiefly cover general subjects from 1963 to 1978 and n.d. [additional 1990s clippings have been included by SCPC staff]. Specific subjects include: education; desegregation of public schools, particularly in Greenville and Darlington Counties in 1970; the Moody Report; political parties; the General Assembly; the McNair family; inaugurations; the Tricentennial celebrations; and Governor Donald S. Russell [1963-1964]. Personal clippings concern campaigns and include a folder on McNair‘s opponent in the 1962 Lieutenant Governor‘s race, Marshall Parker. In addition to the loose clippings, there is a scrapbook documenting the activities of the Governor‘s Mansion Commission from 1965-1970.
