It might not be amiss to state that the ! Coast Line officials only last week placed an order for equipment to the value of hundreds of thousands of dollars. The order was placed is as 1 follows: ' Ten Pacific type superheated pas-' t^ontv-fivp ten-wheel (senger eugmco, mvu... ? freight engines of the latest improved j superheated type, twelve seventy-foot steel passenger coaches and eight seventy-foot steel combination cars for! service on the through passenger; trains, one thousand ventilated freight cars of what is known as the A. C. D. j , type, three hundred flat cars and I fifty ballast cars. This new equip- j v,qc hppn ordered with as quick] 111CUV liutj _ i delivery as is consistent, for much of I the same is needed at this time, es^ pecially with reference to the engines and freight cars for the increased demands caused by an increase in j freight traffic surpassing the expectations of the most sanguine has caused some little inconvenience, and while it has kept the management on the l alert much of the time to supply tne j demand and keep freight moving as it should, there has yet been heard of * iio "car famine" or tie-up in freight ^ , traffic. Further improvements planned for the year, announcement of which has been made, and as stated above, is included in a material improvement of the main line tracking of the company by a laying of double track between Selma and Parkton.

Last Friday morning the college team went down to Greenwood to meet the famous Ty Cobb and his All Stars. Two games, at 10.30 a. m., and 3.30 p. m. had been scheduled, but the rain fell so steadily during the morning that the first game had to be called off and it looked impossible to play 1 rthe second. But the sun did his best, i and with the aid of several loads of sawdust the field was put in fair condition. The game had been well adi vertised and a record breaking crowd would have been ou hand had the - - Ac M-OO. nmrp I weatiier uecu. ian. no n. ..w,a than 600 people were present. The game was interesting and hard fought at all stages. Ty's team broke into-the scoring column in the fourth inning, when Eidson hit a man, passed a man, and 011 a fielders choice the bases were choked; smart hitting and a passed ball by Shealy sent four men across the pan. Home runs by Tommy McMillan of New York Ameri- J cans and Ty Cobb with a man on i* each case gave the All Stars their total of eight runs.. Eidson, first man up in the fifth drew a pass, annexed second on a passed ball, came across with Newberry's first "run on Floyd's slashing J?5 m rtloA r. /% /-I 1 r* Ml i o in. urive. r ivy u aiou owttu m m ing. The playing of Ty Cobb, McMillan, Duchy Holmes, and catching of Eddie ; Sanford, featured for the AH Stars, j Floyd, three red hot hits, the pitch- ! ing of Eidson and Epting, the latter j striking out eight m-en in the four j innings that he worked were the j bright spots for Newberry.

Unquestionable we have a great college team, with only a few weak spots, which Coach Hollo way will endeavor to cor-j rect in the next few days, a team which deserves the town people's hearty support. Furthermore the opportunity of seeing Ty Cobb has not given Newberry the slip, for he asurred the management that "he was onlv too anxious to come and would play the preceding or following day he plays in Columbia.
