Clinton pons Host To District Meet The Clinton Lion.s club on last Fri day evening was host to a zone meet ing of presidents and secretaries an 1 other members of various clubs in the zone. About thirty officials were pres ent from Spartanbuig, Gaffney, Un ion. Greenwood, Laurens, and Calhoun Falls. They were giie.st.-^ of the Clin- j[on club to hear plans for the year’s work pertaining to this zone and to Furman l»ack, who scored on the Blue .Stockings last year. Jack and Joe Miliiip, stocky twins on the “’J'hornwell teani, are slated to fill the two guard positions. The op posing baokfields will have doubl" Irouljle when that pair get down to bu.siness! Clinton Hi will play a night game witli Anderson Boys’ high in Andcr- si>n on October 8. The Clinton boys tennis team (15 years of age or younger) will journey' to Greenwood soon for a match there. “4aiu” Dillard- ami “Ginky” Sadler (‘xpeet to accompany them and play two Greenwood girls. ' Note from The Blue SUH'king: The i freshman class at P. C. includes 21 former^-aptains in high school ath letics and men who had all-state 'distinction in some form of sports. 1 Ci'ach Wilder expects his Clinton I Mi team to average about 155 pounds. , I'he line will probably average around j Uhl pounds. j Dennard to .\lkinson, P. C. pass ing cTVmhm^ioh, clicked well enough in high school to give both players an all-state 'rating in Florida for two straight years. Jim Furr, captain of the 11)37 “Red Devils” and erstwhile guard on the (Minton team, has been shifted to end in recent practice sessions. The freshman track team at P. C. next spring should be unusually strong in the sprints as evidenced by those energetic dashes through the gauntlet made by the “rats” Tuesday night under “sophomoric gruidance.” Allen Jacobs, star fullback on the *ThornwelI team, iyli brother of J. B. Jacobs, former ^ptain of the Blue .Stockings and/^ all-state fullback. What’s more, .Allen (or “Doc” as he is better known) has a younger broth er,/ who is also out for the Thornwell team and is already showing up well in practice. Perhaps some would say, “Shame on youl” but I can’t help thinking what“ a swell team W'Ould result frbmt M rsT McDuffie Stone of this city! is in a serious condition in the Lau rens county hospital as result of in juries received in a car wreck Mon-, day night between the country clubi and I.{iurens. In addition, to head in-j juries, she is suffering from other brui.ses and cuts about the body. Her condition was said to be unchanged by hospital attaches yesterday after noon. Mr. Stone, who was accompanying his wife at the time of the accident, was admitted to the hospital but wa.s dismis.sed following treatment. He was said to have lost control of his car when he attempted to pass a wagon. The automohileTVad left The pavement and plunged into a field and turned over after going about t’K) or 70 feet, investigating officers reported. .Mrs. .Stone before marriage was Miss .Macie Sherard, a native of And erson county, and was reared in the Thornwell orphanage.
