Presbyterian Wins 12th Straight State Tennis Titk Presbyterian college racked up its 12th consecutive South Carolina tennis championship last Saturday ;in the finals of the state tourna ment. The play was mere formality , as far as team honors were concern ed, with Presbyterian players in every finals slot, battling for indi vidual honors. Defending Champion Frank | Spears, Presbyterian’s No. 1 man; who was seeded first, came through as expected to take the singles ^tle again. He defeated teammate Joe Dodd in straight sets, 6-0, 6-0, 6-0. However, the championship dou bles match proved a different story. Spears and Bill Toole were extend ed to the limit in overcoming the combination of Dodd and Billy Bradley. The count ran to 6-4, 6-2, 5-7, 4-6, 6-4, as underdogs Dodd and Bradley almost pulled the match out of the fire after dropping the first two sets. Dr. Marshall W. Brown, Presby terian president, presented trophies j to the winners and runnerup in 1 t-ceremonies which followed the i play. Woffftrd this season and will have a bearing on the Little Four stand ings. South To Lead Nation In Gain In Population Columbia, May 4.—The South will make the biggest gains in popula tion of any section of the nation, a special report issued by Prentice Hall company indicated yesterday. The publishing company bases its report on an analysis of census rec ords, births, deaths and marriages. The report showed that the West will have a somewhat larger rela tive gain in population, but the South will be tops numerically. The highly industrial and highly populated North is expected to lag far behind in population growth. The great grain belt in the North Central states also will fail to match the national growth average. Studies of census records indicate there will also be shifts of popula tion within states. There is a steady trend of people moving from rural areas into cities. About two-thirds of the nation’s people now live in urban areas and each year the farms are losing half a million per sons. Over the entire country, a whop ping gain in population is seen for the next tan years. A record num ber of births is accountable for this growth. The South, however, is gaining its lead in population growth main ly through migration. More and more persons are pouring into this area from other sections. Smothering Indigestion Relieved Mrs. Bailey Mrs. Effie Bai ley, Inman, S. C. t writes: “I began taking Scalf’s In dian River Medi cine because I had heard so much talk about it and people recom mended it so high ly. I had suffered for thirty years from spells of smothering indiges tion, resulting in a weak, nervous, rundown feeling. I tried treatment after treatment but Scalfs Indian River Medicine was the only medi cine that brought the blessed relief I craved. I’m happy to recommend Scalf’s Indian River Medicine to others for I have great confidence' in this fine herb stomach tonic.” If you sufl’er like Mrs. Bailey did, by all means start on Scalfs Indian River Medicine today.
