* THURSDAY/MAY 28, 1925 * mmm THE CLINTON CHRONICLE^ CLINTON, S. C y. -n- t [w of Cross Anchor and Cross Key| According to Rev. E. F. Ifoot, we find that some salesman placed a Gulbransen piano, style C/ln Yarborotighis Chapel, and priced the instrument at $295.00, which is really the regular and only price, and added WAR TAX and FREIGHT, making a total of $330.00. From the latter fig ure he offered a reduction of $25.0t), or a net price to the Church of $310.00,/* Our sales man discovered through Mr. Root, the trick that was being pulled and exposed the game that was attempted. The piano in ^question is Nationally adver tised and Nationally priced. We liiv^ made it a rule to donate $26.00 to any Church pn any piano, but when it is done they are sure that it is a real dona tion. '' _" * At Cross K^ys, we fite£/that •* f’adgett’s Creek Church actually bought, and that, according! to the buying committee, the sales man stated that the price as stamped in the b»ck of the piano was represented as the whole sale factory price. Just what price was put on the Padgett’s Creek instrument we are unable to say, but it appears from the statement of the buying com- % mittee that the price was above / / the Nationally advertised price. The Gulbransen Line is in ♦•every way worthy of the confi dence of the public, -should he posted _as_ to ut they the price f and refuse to pay mor^ than the figure stamped in the back, of the piano. —L j If we have done the salesman any injustice in thisgad^erti^e- ment we will ’make amends and apologies through the columns of this paper, but r from the in formation we have from the pas tors of these two Churches] and from the buying committee of Padgett’s Creek Church, those two congregations have been im posed upon. Rev. J. R. Moore is Pastor of Padgett’s Creek; Church. %. —t—— O’Daniel & Reid CLINTON, S. C.

Laws on Summer BaSeoall. As the season for summer sport nears, the high school and college stu dent turns his mind to thoughts of baseball. To clarify the minds of all college students and to,give informa tion to high school students who ex pect to enter college is this article written. ~ v - Prof H. E. Sturgeon, one of the vice-presidepts of the Southern Inter collegiate Athletic Association has an nounced that the association at its ,last meeting passed the following rule in relation to surhiher ball playing: “Nojperson shall be eligible to par ticipate in intercollegiate contests if he^has played baseball as a member of any team that plays more than three^games per week.” Thus it can be seen that a student can play ball but that the team he plays With can- jnot play more than thrfce games,, or if the team schedules more than three games per week, he is ineligible. ‘ This rule was not .aimed at, any individual or individuals, but was passed to help Jteep -college athletics absolutely in the amateur class. The rule not only applits -arty present college student but to any person who intends to' enter a/ college which is a member of the/S. I. A. A. or any -college whose teams play members of the S. I. A.’> A. - There is no excuse for a violation of?this rule, and the association is giving it publicity so that it will be, thoroughly understood. Remember, if you expect to attend college, or^are now attending college, you had best consult your coach before yoti sigp up lor summer baseball. Tenn.
