A great future lies ahead of the
Presbyterian college athletic program
if the potentialities of the recently
organist ’'Walter Johnson club” are
realized.

athletics, and will gladly add to its
roll the name of any alumnul fnrni

equipment and coaching in each.

write,, during th' war he had fos
Captain to write Mr. Duncan regular
ly for him. When ne landed in Jack
sonville after hU discharge he was
offered a railrof«i job. This he de-
clii^ with th< statement, “thanks
Boss, but I am going back to Clinton,
to the man I Uiinks most of than
anybody else on earth.”
While Andrew was in the hospital'
Mrs. Duncan and fapiily visited him
and he was much touched by their
coming. His passing breaks a tie of
friendship that had existed between
ployer and employee for thirty-
six years, a most unusual record of
faithfulness and devotion.

Andrew Sanders, colored, well
known Clinton Negro, died Monday
morning at the Veterans’ hospital in
Columbia where he had been a pa
tient for several da]rs. The funeral
service was held yesterday near his
former home at Whitmire.
Andrew as a young Negro went to
the late W. J. Duncan 36 years ago'
as an employee, Mr. Duncan at that!
mne residing in the Whitmiie scetton.;
When Mr. Duncan moved to Clinton,
in 1920 and became manager of tlto
Peoples Bonded Warehouse, he'
brought his faithful and trusted ser-1
vant Andrew, with him, and until
his health failed/a few months ago
he was employed at the warehouse
by Mr. Duroan. The death of Mr.
Duncan in February was a great sor
row to Andrew. y
There was an unusual and strong
attachment between Mr. Duncan and
his family, and Andrew. When the
latter was called into service during
the World war * he requested Mr.
Duncan to exchange pocket knives
with him as a sign of good luck that
he would not be kilM in France.
This they did, returning one anoth
er’s knives when Andrew received
his honorable discharge and returned

'ty, throws his hat in tlie ring today

His numerous friends will be inter
ested in his race and watch its out
come with interest. ^
