Heath, secretary of the Camden and Kershaw County Chum ber of Commerce and promoter of the recreational program In Camden la strongly in favor of any plan that will provide Camden with a baseball plant that the city will not have occusion to offer any apologies for, "1 scored the Timmonsville-Olymplliu high school game for the Btale papers and also the Associated Press J Tuesday," said Mr. Heath, " and 1 want to tell you 1 was tempted to hung my head in shame when I heard the remarks offered by visiting pluyertf and Itms In reference to our basebull field. The present arrangement is all wot In more wuys than one. In the first place there isn't any means whereby a crowd can be checked on admissions for games, which Is u big handicap for a high school athletic association to labor under. Secondly, the field is a Joke in that In both left and center fields you have big trees? which necessarily require a lotv of crazy ground rules. And you haven't any bleachers for spectators. Tuesday a spectator, M. H. Purvis, of Timmonsville, was standing back of tho players bench and was struck by a batted ball. A physician who wub i called declared had the ball struck I three Inches to the right, Mr. Purvis' would have been killed. Can you Imagine what a reflection that would have been on Camden In general? "We need a field that will enable the boys to play baseball under the most favored conditions. There should be tracts of land available where such a field can be established at a minimum of expense. Give the boys a sod infield with fast clay base lines. l>et there be bleachers with wire In front of them to protect tho upocta' tors. 1 he present baseball field can be utilized for soft ball programs. It is ideal for such and being centrally lo-* cated, offers line opportunity for people to come from their homes and watch the games. If we had several lights Installed on poles we could play evening ball there. ' I "I understand there is a movement on foot now to try and got the city to install lights on the field on Lyttleton street, opposite the Children's Home for soft ball league games. That Is fine, but if we can get a baseball park started for the high school, Legion and next year a central South Carolina baseball league, I hope the soft ball league will hold off, and in-1 stead of using the Fair street site, make use of the present high school] area for soft ball purposes. "Believe me, the boys can call on me for anything I can do to further both of these projects. Camden has a high school ball club that any place In the nation could weU bo proud of. Nothing is too good for those lads. The Legion will have a fine team in the field this summer. Next year I hope to get Sumter, Hartsville, Bethune and several other nearby communities interested in going Into a hard ball league with Camden. We could make such a venture pay if we had the proper kind of a baseball park. And there is still another angle that we might consider. If we had a good baseball plant we can make a bid to some of the clubs In the major leagues, the American association, International or some other minor loop to establish a spring training camp here. That would mean a lot to Camden, both from a financial as well as publicity standpoint."
