Scoring on<- touchdown 'In '4 etch
matter and keeping the opposition
ar away Xrom its goal line through'
out the evening, the Camden high
school football team defeated Hyatt
i*ark, 24 to 0 on l&feitoji field
Friday afternoon.
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. Tarrer, the youth who. did thJ
heaving was injured and had to hflf
taken out of the game and the *>??
hope of advancing the ball wwh lost
to the Purple, and White. .Camden
ran up a total of 15 first down*
.during thu afternoon, - ???- 4J
it Two reasons why the visitor* woif
were Chewning and llaynee. ThM
pair of backfield ataia dashy<iMI*
and down the field in clever * style.'
Ettera at left end for the Camden
team was one of the stars on the
defense, ('apt. 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. The
last counter was registered by Nettles
following one of the Old Hold
and Black . drivers.?Saturday's. Columbia

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.
