THE TEAM IN KM VIEW
Fellow Htudent Name# Warriors Who
Won Football'** Highest Honor*
Football, the King of Spoils,' In
( amdeii, is ovorl
The Camden Jlitfh football team
has closed one ot Its most successful
seasons, even though It was defeated
by the heavy Mullina team. And remember
when' the time e<ynes to
eheck up on the team?that every
man started out at a brand now pusition?aftd
that there were only twq?
regulars left from that mighty team
of '2ft. These were Captain Soweil
and Davidson,
The Columbia Slate in speaking of
.
Jimmie Green, compared him to a
Kentucky thoroughbred, ilad they
seen our CapUin in action on the
Mullins field, the name of Howell
would have oeeh used in place of the
Capitals' star backfleld man.'
The Lineup and Hummary.
Frank Lowell?Howell played at
quarter, lie was captain of our team
and, as one of the newspapers axpressed
it, he was one of the best
football captains in the state. He
was our triple threat as he could
punt, pass and run equally as well.
Hr was rnsily the star of the tenm,
being one of the two men to have
played in every game this season
from whistle to whistle without substitution.
No better man than Howeil
can be selected to fill the position of
"Camden's most valuable player."
Thad Flowers?Hut when it comes
to sportsmanship, Flowers takes the
lead. I'laying a mighty good game
at center, lie helped add to the brilliant
record already made by his
brother in '25. We are proud to call
them real bulldogs. Thad was the i
other player who stuck through every i
game, and as for hacking up the line,
Thad did his part and then some. i
Hebron Kudcliffe?Camden's great- I
est material loss will he Kadcliffe at j
half. He was one of our fastest men :
and a wonderful line plunger. As for
intercepting passes, no Camden fan i
who saw that game in Batesburg will
ever forget how he snatched that pass
I in midair and raced 65 yards for the
| only touchdown of the day.
Maurice < Soup) Campbell?When
it comes to hittin' the line "Soup" i
stands out as "it." Weighing 193 ,
pounds it is not easy to take him out.
He is a hard player and a strength
on the offense. Just give No. 10 the
ball and it's "watch out opponents!"
He has two more years with the bulldogs.
Hoyt Trapp- -This is the man thatV
just as good on the defnese as on the
offense. He can run like a deer and
drive his way , like ii pile-driver.
Claying at full, he shifted from one
side the backfield to the other and
kept the opposing team always on
edge, for they never could tell what
"that No. 2's goin' to do next." He
will certainly give someone a -run for
Captain next year.'-'
George Jenkins?Jenkins played
right-end and proved that he was as
fast a man as there was on the squad.
George's slogan must have been "always
get your man," for he certainly
did. He, too, will be back next year
and promises to be one of our best
bets.
Jobie Mills?Mills played in the
line and no player on the Camden,
team was harder to take out than
Jobie. He was one of the best offensive
players we hud. Toward the
last of the season he developed into
a hard and sure tackier. He will he
in the lineup next year. '
John Davidson?Davidson, playing
tackle, was on# ol our bast offensive
and defensive lines rami. Coach Kich- j
ards agreed that Davidson played the
beat game of his life on the Mulling
gridiron. Camden High hates to lose
this player.
Abbott Cioodale Coodale is another
good Bulldog who has worn tne
old gold and black for the last time.
Abbott was a good tackier and didn't
fail to get hia man.
John Gettye?John is a player you
seldom hear about. Nevertheless he's,
a good player, always In Uie" lineup
and seldom taken out of the game.
He's another Bulldog who will wear
the gold and black in '27.
John Nettles?This is another Nettles
and he's certainly a chip off the
old block. He held down J the other
guard and it could not have been done
better. For if ever the enemy wanted
a tussle let 'em hop in and tackle
Nettles. He's another who's coming
back next year. * 1
J. T. Hush?J. X. played at half ?
and was a wonder at taking the bail <
down the held. But taking it away
from the other side was J's dish, and
as a defensive player he was right 1
there to stop 'em every time. He is
going to give somebody a hot race
for half-back next season.
Lynell Flutes?Foutes was about
one of the best defensive players on
the whole teum. He was klways In
the thick of it, ready to put up a tight
with the biggest of 'em.
Moultrie Burns^?"Bull" Burns finished
his gridiron career in a blaze
of glory. No player fought as hard
and with as much opposition as did
Burns in that Mullins game, and he
certainly starred. L.J.

MORE MILLIONS
for your service j
THE continued growth of South Carolina will require an estlmated
expenditure of more than one and a quarter million ;
dollars during 1927 for additions, extensions and replacements
to the Be-ll Telephone System throughout the State.
This is one of the largest telephone construction programs
ever undertaken In Souttr^Carolina during one year, and follows
a gross expenditure o* more than $1,000,000 last year.
It is now estimated that more than 2,000 new telephones
will be added to the Bell System in South Carolina this yesr.
These large additions are a pa-t of our policy of building In
advance to keep pace w.th the antic.pated growth and progress
of the State.
The er.pansion of the service makes It more valuable to
every user and provides the entire State with an unequalled,
modern system of quick communication ,

Dr. Frank Crane Says:
It's An Old Joke, But True
Some jokes, like a kitten, apparently
have nine lives.
Dressed in new clothes, they appear
perennially.
Such a joke is the old gag about
the small town sport who stood before
an elite eating place at meal times
chewing a toothpick to give the impression
he had just dined within.
Everyone laughs at the story, wfth
perhaps softened malice, for to some
he recognizes a kinship with the hero.
The genuine, sincere, unassuming
man, who is content to appear what
he is and nothing more, is the millionth
man.
What most people want is to be
known as great rather than simply
be great.
Try this on yourself:
If you were offered the chance to
have all the power and greatness, as
well as all the responsibility, work
and abuse, of a president of the
United States and have no one ever
know you were president?never get
credit for great acts if accomplished
?would you accept?
Isn't recognition and not just pure
achievement the thing desired ?
Of course recognition is part of it,
but when it becomes the most important
consideration, it assumes an
evil influence.
Not everyone who says he desires
power and successMeally desires those
things. ~r
They are synonymous with work,
worry and responsibility.
What those who say they want
them to desire is the by-products of
power and success, the toothpicks and
not the meal.
They want the yachts, the trips to
Palm Beach and the Packard limousines.
To really eat you must pay; to
chew a toothpick costs nothing.
To really achieve costs wpj^k^ and
J self-denial; to seem to achieve (for
ja time!V requires only a weak con1
science.
i Every "show-off" desires the reJ
suits ot achievement, but is unwilling
to pay the price. He would rather
chew the toothpick of fraud than pat
i the substance of paid-in-advance actuality.
To scorn to be, to all but the
, shrewdest eye, has all the attractions
I and none of the hardships of actual
being.
In Sunday School we used to sing:
"This dikj, the noise of battle;
1 The next the Victor's song!"
The noise of battle must precede
. the song of victory. The Royal Order
of Toothpick Chewers try to reverse
! the sequence, and it can't be done.
1 he word Cabal came into being in
1671, when th? Ertgtlsh cabinet con
sisted of five persons (Clifford, Arlington,
Buckingham. Ashley, tand
Lauderdale), the initial letters of
whose names made up the word. They
wade that appellation so infamous
. that it has never since their time been !
used except as a term of reproach.

Liberty Hill Community Shows Esteem
for Governor-Elect.
Liberty'Hill, Jan. 1.?A social event
of interest to many was the reception
given Wednesday evening by Mr. and
Mrs. R. C. Jones, in compliment to
Governor-elect John G. Richards and
family. The attractive decorations of
holly, smilax and mistletoe in the living
room, hall and parlor of the home
made a pleasing background for the
large and congenial company assembled
in response to the invitation of
their host and hostess.
The pleasure of the occasion was
heightened by its informality. Conversation
was interspersed with songs
in which the entire company took
part. Ice cream and cake were served.
A fitting climax to the pleasure and
interest of the occasion came at the
close, of the evening, when the guests
assembled in the hall foh what proved
to be an event of unusual impressiveness.
The Rev. F. A. Drennan
spoke of the high esteem in which
the people held their friends and
neighbors in whose honor the reception
was tendered. As he continued
to speak of the ties by which the
guests of honor were bovmd, to the
community and its desire to give expression
in some practical form to its
appreciation of their contributions to
itswjajfeasure and welfare, Miss Callie
Jones, bearing in .her bands a handsome
silver pitcher and tray, came
forward. This gift was then presented
to Mr. and Mrs. Richards by Mr.
Drennan in behalf of the community.
Mr. Richards accepted the gift, in
behalf of himself and Mrs. Richards
in a most appropriate manner, referring
with feeling to his affection for
the community in which he had been
born and in which his entire life has
been spent, promising that he would
endeavor in the position to which he
has been Exalted, relying upon the
help of Divine Powers to so act as
to reflect no discredit on the people
who in so many ways had shown their
confidence in him.
Approximately 120 days a year in
Brazil are not working days, being
