Moses carelessly act tire to u bottomland he was planning to cultivate. The day wan windy and the fire spread to the woodlands, destroying three thousand tree smdlings which Dr. William Weston, of Columbia, planted lust year. The hie covered eleven acres and was fought by Mose, his family uud neighbors. The light line imposed was contingent on a solemn promise to the Judge by Moses Reed that he would purchase and replant the three thousand seedlings destroyed. Moses is a highly respected deacon in Red Hill Haptist church and the members of the congregation have volunteered to assist him In the plunting of the trees. The Judge warned Moses that the light fine Imposed was contingent on his living up to the promise regarding the replacement of the trees.

The wind was Yery high, making control of the fire difficult Judge Reese severely lectured the negroes for their carelessness and told them the federal government, the state government and the citizens of Richland county were embarked on a cooperative effort to outlaw woods fires, therefore. It was Incumbent upon all citizens, both white and negro, to actively cooperate In both the prevention and suppression of woods fires. He also pointed out that the harvesting of woods products was largely done by means of negro labor therefore the members of that race have a big stake In timber growing. County Forest Ranger McCravy and County Forest Warden Barker attended the trials and urged the negroes to carry the Judge's warning to all ' others who may by their carelessness cause^ fire to spread- to the-woods.

But in the second me crowd went absolutely nutty and almost tore the roof off the gym. Residents a block away from the building reported hearing the wild cheering. The result was a moral victory for the Camden team, for in the first meeting between these two teams earlier in the season Orangeburg ran away from our home hopes. In the game here Monday night Camden drew frequent penalisations from the referee and it was due to lynx-eyed tactics of this official that the visitors were able to return home with a tie game other than a defeat. The two Camden torwaras, Peggy McGuirt and Jean Plyler did some nice shooting, although they ran up against some real hard luck at making the ball behave. Scores of shots circled the rim and refused to drop through the net Peggy got her eye lined on the rim in the second half and dropped in soihe ten field coun tera.
