It was Camden's afternoon. The lads from the Kershaw county capital outplayed the Parkers. That's the dope in a thimble. The i'urk or* fought ganu-ly but they could not gain against their opponents. Hyatt J'ark's lino hold well at internal* but'the plunging backs, especially Chewning succeeded in breaking through and in skirting, end in its drives toward iho goal lines. Until the fourth period the Kau Claire boys were unable to register a first down. Then they began a forward passing attack that netted theni two in <juiek order but Capt.

Mills also gave a, good account of himself at center. Hyatt Park's gaining was negligible , as already mentioned. The Parkers also found it difficult tt> stop Camden's advances but the visitors found Cooper a --harrier. Hough, Addison, Ughtsey and Pee^e also did some good work on the defense. The first touchdown came on a 17-yard pass, Wooten to Ktters. Another pass, worked by the same pair nut the ball on the eight-yard line In the second period and Chewning carried it over. In the third quarter Haynes made a long gain of 17 yards to the six-yard line and then "the same player carried it across.

SOUTH CAROLINA NEWS Rear Admiral Newton A. MoCully, 60, who several years ago adopted seven Russian children, last week was married to Mrs. Olga Krutuly cher, 29, at Keval, Russia. Admiral McCully is now commandant of the navy yard in Charleston. Sam C. Blease, chairman of the state railroad commission, has announced that he wil.l be a candidate for re-election to the commission by the next session of the general assembly. There are two other vacancies to be filled, that of Earle R. Ellerbe and T. J. Cunningham, the lutter having been appointed to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Daniel S?PP a few months ago. Senator Blease will shortly appear in the District of Columbia supreme court in a new role, says a Washington dispatch to the Columbia Record. He will opppse efforts of Governor John G. Richards to have Dr. J. W. Buchanan extradited to Spartanburg county, where Buchannan and four others are wanted for trial on a charge of conspiracy to defraud the county of $147,000. The name of Senator Blease has been added to that of Croinelin and Laws, of Washington, as counsel for Dr. Biiehanan. The latter sued out a writ of habeas I corpus and the court will shortly determine whether or not he is to be turned over to M. S. Turner, agent of the. state of South Carolina. The indictment against Dr. Buchanan and the other defendants alleges that on December 13, 1924, they "conspired to defraud Spartanburg county out of $147,000 by securing control of this amount from the then county treasurer, who is named in the indictment. This money was to be applied for tjie benefit of the Carolina Remedies Co., according to the indictment. The weekly crop report and weather summary isssued in Columbia Wednesday, says that the major crops have bq$p largely harvested and that 70 to 80 per cent of the cotton-in the state had been picked. Banded Birds To South America Birds flying southward, singly or in great flocks, are the proverbial heralds of the approach of cold weather. Where do they go, starting from Canada, or New England, or our northern lakes? How fast do they travil and what distances do . they cover? The Biological Survey of the United States Department of Agriculture has been endeavoring for some time to collect information in these and other points relating to the habits of migratory birds by means of its birdbanding operations. Suitable metal bands, orA markers, are placed on the legs d^captuVed. birds in the regions wher^^tudies are being made. The birds are then released, and gradually a fair proportion of them are recaptured and the bands are returned to the department for comparison' with the original banding records. Surprising distances have been traveled 'by some of the birds recovered. Bands are returned not only from StBtes along the Gulf coast but from Mexico, the West Indies, and even from South America. Among the most recent.of such teresting returns were bands fr<>m three common terns, handed at Tern Island, near Chatham, Mass., in July, 1926 and recovered from the island of Trinidad pi May and June, 1927. A Caspian tern, banded July 1, 1925, at Gravelly Island, Mich., was retaken on June 7, 1927, on the Magdalena River, near Barranquilla, <polumbia. This makes the fourth banded Caspian tern reported from this same area. ," ~ " " ' -t- :?
