New Concessions Sought By Foes Flight On Reform Bill Will Not “ Be Relaxed, Jlouse Leaders' Say. Washington, April 4.—House ad- minUtration leaders, expressing con fidence that the reorganization bill Would be passed this week, welcomed a break in debate on the ipeasure to day and hoped it might help the con troversy to “cool off some.” By the operation of the routine program of the house, rather than ^ •by the design of the leadership, the j chamber spent the day discussing} other matters. There was a possi- THE SPORTS CHATTERBOX By TENCH OWENS Orchidc to Presbyterian’s Blue Stocking baseball team for showing a fine championship spirit Monday. Chick Galloway’s boys came from behind in a I thrilling manner to Uke the feathers out of the Carolina Gamecocks by a} score of 5 to 4 in the initial game^of the intercollegiate sea.son for the Blue The outlook was far from encouraging for the local nine and P. C. fans were beginning to lose enthusiasm as the game approached the final innings. Then swiftly things began to happen in the eighth inning and hardly stopped until McCravy, Gamecock relief hurier, generously forced in the winning run by issuing a pass with the bases loaded in the last half of the ninth. Appearing rather nervous in the first stages of the game, the Blue Stockings, clad in nifty new uniforms, hit a streak of errors that was hard to stop. They settled down, though, as the game proceeded and gave proof that they firmly inUnd to keep the championship pennant for another year. The P, C. infield, although slightly erratic at first, func- .tioned smoothly for the most part and executed two neat double plays daring the contest. Shortstop Mac Reid and “Cab” Blackwell at first base looked especially good to-this observer. Pitching was better than was expected, also. The two sophomore twirlers for the Blue Hose, Richards UuBose and Julius .McGregor, showed potential skill that should enable- them with experience to fill Ut* bill on the mound quite adequately this season. Perhaps,we should have mentioned first the colorful flag-raising cere mony that took place before the game. Cqachea, players, officials, band, and all, hiked out to the flag pole in center field where the spectators saw slowly rising beneath the “Stars and Stripes” the blue pennant symbolic of the Pal metto league championship for 1937. There it fluttered in the breeze through out the game—and indeed, long may it wave over the land of P, C. and the home of the Blue Stockings! CHATTERBOXING The merry-go-round of sports at P. C.. Hinton and Thornwell keeps one in a whirl, so to speak. Merely checking resulU of all the events for this bit of sports chatter each week is developing into quite a task—but lots of fun . . . Chick Galloway certainly keeps his Blue Hose baseball team in the public eye. Connie Mack’s Athletics are some step up from P. C.’s recent opposition, don't you think? The big game is at 3:30 this afternoon and the big banquet is at 7 o’clock. Don’t miss ’em! The weather man evidently doesn’t approve of sports. Among other things, rain, steady torrents of it, washed out the well-planned athletic events of the county field day scheduled for last Friday. They may be run off this week . . . Track results favored the opposition rather than P. C. in two meets recently with Carolina and Gerogia.
