Camden Eleven Loses
Hard Fought Game
j
Sumter, Oct. 27.?-An embattled
Sumter high school football team
sooted three touchdowns in the second
half of the game with Camden high
school here this afternoon to defeat
the visitors by an 18 to 7 score,
Camden came to Sumter highly favored
to win, on the basis of records
of the two teams in games so far this
season, but the Gamecocks, after
weakening in the first half, put on
the power in the final two quarters
to sweep the visitors from the field.
Camden caught Sumter napping on
the first few plays of the game to
score her lono touchdown. Receiving
the kickofT, the visitors cut loose with
two forward passes good for a total
of 40 yards to place the ball on Sumter's
15-yard strip; from there the
ball was carried over on a series of
thrusts at the line. The extra point
was added by a run around end.
A few minutes later Camden started
another drive that carried to Sumter's
12-yard line* before it was halted.
In the second quarter Camden
again got the ball within scoring distance,
when a Sumter fumble was recovered
on the local's 25-yard line.
Sensational tackling by Wells and
Keardon, however, was responsible
for Camden losing 30 yards on the
next two plays.
Camden never threate-ned after this
and as the half ended -Sumter drove
the ball to the visitors 25-yard line
before losing it on downs. Two runs
by Chewning for 15 and 12 yards featured
in this drive. First downs were
equal in the first half, oath team accounting
for six.
The second half was all Sumter,
with Camden constantly on the defensive.
Practically all of Camden's
running plays were smeared before
they got underway and the forward
passing attack was stopped cold.
. Taking the kickofT Sumter drove
straight for a touchdown with an impressive
display of power.. Chewning
went 15 yards .around end on the first
play and was followed by Gibson with
a nine-yard jaunt. Steady pounding
of the line brought the ball to the
Camden eight-yard marker from
where Mellette finally took it over.
Chewning's placement for the extra
point was low and the score was 7 to
6 in Camden's iavor.
A few minutes after this Sumter
again came into possession of the ball
and put on another scoring drive.
Chewning ripped off 20 on a well executed
lateral and two plays* later added
20 more on the same play. The
third quarter ended with ball on
Camden's 2B-yard line. Player drove
12 yards off tackle to open the fourth
quarter and Chewning added nine
more. Throe yards were lost when
Chewning fumbled and recovered.
But Sumter made it first and ten on
Camden's six-yard line. The Camden
line strengthened at this point
and held .Sumter without gain for
three downs. On fourth down, however,
Gibson, aided by prettv interference,
charged around efid and
wriggled away-^from two tacklers to
score the toiicbdown. Sumter again
failed to add the extra point.
Sumter'? final touchdown was made
on the most spectacular play of the
game. Camden was forced to kick
from near midfield, and Wells, Sumter's
star tackle, broke through and
blocked the punt. Harris, followed
cl^w?e on the heels of Wells, picked the
ball out of the air in full stride and
outran two Camden players to cross
the goal line standing up. The Gamecocks
again failed to add the extia
point and the game ended soon after
with the ball on the Camden 2o-yard
line.
In the second half Sumter made
nine first downs to Camden's two. In
Sumter backfield. Chewning, Gibson
and Player were outstanding, while on
the line Wells, Iteardon and Harris
played star ball.
For Camden Boheler and Wooten
played bang-up games offensively,
while in the line with two ends, Sanlers
and Watts were outstanding.

SOME PENSION FAcfc
We still think that tho election of
President Roosevelt a great blessing.
As an 'old-timer, however, we seriously
doubt the wisdom of some "experiments"
to date. We .have always believed
that the people should support
the government, not the government
Ihe people. We are not able to see
how a vast army of new office-holders
and enormously increased taxes can
help pull any taxpayer out of the
hole. Hut we admire hie efforts to
help the underdog. The criticisms
leveled at him on the pension racket,
seem unjust. That business has been
terribly abused. As a sample, we
some time since received a list of
physicians and dentists* from the
Veterans Association, who are on the
government salaried payrolls. These
stipends range from 3600 to 6500 dollars,
who are also drawing from 150
tQ 200 dollars per month for disability
allowance. Unable to work, mind
you. No reasonable man believes
that such abuses should continue.
Tho report goes on to say that lawyers
are equally guilty, but, for some
reason, didn't give the list. Probubly
afraid of the lawyers who run
the government and probably the
pension end of it, too.
After the Revolutionary War, which
ended in 1788, no pensions were paid
until 1818-? 35 years. Still more surprising
is the fact that persions for
all wars up to 1861?the Revolutionary,
the War of 1812.. tye Mexican,
and Indian wars?all told, aggregated
less than DO million dollars. It is
already about a billion dollars annually
for the World War veterans, <li- |
rectly or indirectly, and we are only
15 years away from the mad-cap and
wild-goose chase. "
The Mexican war pensions didn't
even start until 41 years after it
ended. There was no Civil War pensions
act for 2^ years after is closed,
and the pension was a mere bagatelle,
compared to what the high and holy
"disabled" rollers are drawing now,
besides their fat salaries.
When you reach these "upper ?its"
it gets worse. '"Over 7,000 Ehnergency
Officers have been retired on
pay from $106.25 to 262 dollars per
month, and most of them in fine positions,
or corraling big fees in independent
practice of various kintls.
Qf the ailments of the 7,000 Emer-.
gency Officers, 4,000 give diseases
which are 'merely presumptive.' One r
of the common complaints is pronounced
as 'social inaptitude.*" ^
Isn't it plain that, Roosevelt had
to do something to save the country
from bankruptcy? Grover Cleveland
did it in the case of Union pensions?and
ploughed deep, in spite of
a whirlwind of abu&ft. The rottenest
aftermath of all wars is the swivel
chair pension abuse. The privates
against their will, do the fighting
and the blood-spilling, and get the
"hot end of the poker." Even these,
many evils creep in.
President Roosevelt deserves great
praise, for trying to remedy conditions
and stop dangerous waste.?Calhoun
