J. U CARTER, D. P. A. r ; Arcade BtUMia^ Ooltttnhte, 8. C. -V rj , - Between You and Me (By THE 8KIPRCR) Have you ever faced a mike?Just talking Well, 1 did. Have you luter found the mike was balking Well, I did. 80 the talk that 1 was talkiug On the mike that waa a balking Waa Juat "napoo." Heema the Skipper did a lot of speaking Into a dead mike last Friday at WI8. * And it all happened^ because the clock on the wall of Studio II waa about three and a half minutes' fast. Announcer Poller swung into his uu| nouncement when the clock hands indicated five bells. And the Skipper went Into his chatter immediately after the Introduction and answered questions In a three minute interview In which wo talked about the Virginian's Horse Show, the hunter trials, the hunts, polo gumes aud Washington Birthday Race programs. And it wasn't until after the broadcast of tlftoen minutes was over that the trio in Studio D know that the first three und a half minutes had been given over to a dead mike. / Well, perhaps it was a break 'for the listeners, but we did want to got that dope on the February horse program over. * Tho lads at WIS were mighty nice about It, however, and I am trying now to arrange to get a 16-minute period in which Harry Kirkover and J. North Fletcher will do the verbal stuff. We had an interesting chat with t Congressman J. P. Richards, and the I more we see and talk to that chap, the better we like him. He has some really worthwhile ideas. I * Met Bon Team chasing down ttyjjj main drag in Columbia last Friday and was Ben smiling. "I'm the happiest man in the world," said Ben. "Whyfore and wherefore and because of what,'' saith we. "I just found a parking space," said Ben. And you folks who Journey to the "big town" can realize Just why Ben was happy. * "I say Dick, what is the meaning of "puny," inquired Alderman Nettles to Dick Floyd. "It's a small horse," said Dick. * You folks who live on Hampton street. Cheer up, the new pavement will be put down In . early spring. Seems they have to wait for warmer weather for the asphaltic dope to bind proper. Oh Ches?before we forget It. Congressman Richards tells me that our mayor, Francis N. McCorkle, is a real speaker. Seems that the honored mayor pot it over like a Franklyn D. at the postmaster's convention. 9 Polo fans who witnessed the Camden-Fort Bragg battle at the No. 1 polo field Sunday afternoon not only witnessed a brilliantly played game, but also saw the largest crowd to ever attend a polo event In the raldsouth. We are not offering any figures as to the actual attendance. All we know is that all the available parking space, not only around the field and In nearby areas but also along the streets and highways was filled with cars. Spectators stood three and four deep In the inidfleld section along the roil. Brigadier General William Bryden tossed in the first ball to open the play and he did It with the ease and skill of a seasoned official of the game. Newspaper writers and photographers were present and strutted their stuff in grabbing news and pictures. Milton Smith was voted an Ideal host, for his steak dinner at noon, at which some sixty-five were present. Mayor F. N. McCorkle offered the only speech, that being very short, We will always vote for dinner of that kind, for a parade of verbology is darned tiresome. The members of the Southern Engraver's association, who motored over for dinner and the game, went away loud In their praise of Camden. ? Camden won tho game because the boys In blue outclassed the army lads. 9 9 9 9 By\ the way, what's the matter with you loyers of music? We've heard a lot about Camden Joining in the move for a Columbia Symphony orchestra, Let me say that if Camden li musicconscious, Why isn't the Hobkirk dining salon Jammed for these Sunday evening .concert en mtnlatnre affairs that Ted Welgand la offering. "*** e ~ And a nice feature of the affair la that Host Paul Moldenhauer, provides a period of community singing following the regular concert program, If I live to H a hundred years old I feel eertaj-that the exquisite ranSyferi.' - : < *1 V* 7.J dltion of "When Day Is Done/ by Bob Delmonlco on his violin, will ever be foremost In my musical memories. A Frankly folka, In as much as these concerts are offered free to Camden people and the winter quests, why not fill the salon every Sunday evening In the future Because it Is free is no cause for any one believing It to be "Just a musical program." It la a concert of beautiful music played by talented musicians and I mean that a thousand fold. * * ~ And If you love the tuneful melodies of "Rose Marie," you may realize just how those musical geniuses played the "Indian Love Call." I could have listened to that number alone for hours. And may I say In closing this week's "Between You and Me," I'd like to leave with you these few llnea: A little more kindness, a little less creed A Ittlte more giving:, a- little less greed A tittle more smile, a little less frown A little lese kicking * man when he's loiwi . ^, A little more flowers on the pathway of Ufa And fewer on grgvee at the end of . the strife.

Camden Victor Over Fort Bragg A throne that tilled the parking areas and spectator*' section to capacity watched a brilliant Catuden po lo team defeat a hard fighting Army team from Fort Bragg at the No. 1 held here Sunday afternoon by a 11 to tf score. It was tho second meeting between the fighting foursomes, Camden having won the initial game at Fort Bragg, 7 to 4. Lowering skies, a threat of rain and a cold wind failed to dampen the enthusiasm of the thousauds that Jammed Into the grandstand, along -the rails, and in the cars about the playlug field. Extra police from the city and state were necessary to take care of the traffic. Prior to the game, the Camden group was host at a dinner at tho Kirkwood to the visiting players and guests from Fort ltragg as well as members of tho danulen polo club and others. The visitors were welcomed by Mayor F. N. McCorkle. Occupying tho head of the table with Mayor McCorkle and David It. Williams, president of the Camden Polo Club, were Brigadier General and Mrs. William Bryden of Fort Bragg. Camden entered the game facing a Vo handicap allowed tho Army riders by reasou of the dlfforoncos In ratings, but the Locals tied up the game In the flrBt chukker when powerful offensive coupled with accurate shooting by Floyd and DuBoso gave Camden two goals. In the second chukker, Camden forged to the front on an aqgle shot by Tupper. Selway of Army scored the first earned goal of the game for his team and tied up the count at 3 all before the chukker ended. The Same story prevailed la the third chukker when after Floyd had scored for Camden, Malone pushed tho willow through to knot up the count. Camden went to the fore again In the fourth wheiv ,?loyd took advantage of an army fiojil register a goal. Malone of Fort Bragg, who wa* brttliant-ln his mallet work, put totfcfteam to tho front with "two beautifully driven shots. At this Juncture the most sensational play of the game occured when DuBose of Camden made a difficult reverse angle shot from near the side line, the ball going through the posts like a bullet. With a tie score opening the fifth, Camden proceeded to uncork a sensational offensive with Tupper scoring twice and DuBoseonce. Camden continued the scoring spree In the sixth when Tupper and j Bates puBhed home goals. The lineups: Fort Bragg?Murray and Wyche, alternating at No. 1; Miller Wo. 2; Maloue, No. 3 and Selway, No. 4. Camden?Tupper, No. 1; DuBose, No. 2; Floyd, No. 3 and 6ateB, No. 4. Scoring: Tupper 4, Malone 3, Floyd 3, DuBose 3, Bates and Selway 1. Referee, Major Lester Karow, Charleston. Name Young Woman In Ruppert's Will New York, Jan. 20.?A one-time Broadway chorus glri?Helen Win thrope Weyant?today was bequeathet one-third of the vast baseball and brewing fortune of the late Colons Jacob Ruppert, bachelor aud owner of the World's champion New York Yankees. The young woman, dark-haired and attractive, ^as one of the three principal heirs, the two others being his nieces, Mrs. J. BbbII McGulre and Mrs. Joseph Hallorau, both of Greenwich, Conn. They we?-e listed In the will under their maiden names, Helen Ruppert Sllleck and Ruth Rita S11leck; and they too received one-third shares. That means that the three women become owners of the New York Yankees which actually will be run however, by a group of trustees. Free Tree Planting By CCC Announced I The state forester bus announced that each forestry CCC camp can plant' ton plots of five acres each to forest trees at no cost to the landowner except the cost of the trees. The trees are sold for $1.60 per thousand at the state nurseries at Camden. Sumter and Georgetown. Transportation churges usually do not exceed fifty cents per thousand trees These plantings must bo within 20 j miles of a forestry CCC camp and Inasmuch as they are for demonalra* ( tion purposes the planting area must1 border on a hlgbjway or well traveled road. The CCC camp located near Montmoreucl in Aiken county can plunt In j that county, a portion of Orangeburg, I the southern part of Edgefield and the< northern part of Baruwell counties. j The Carls Mountain camp can plant In Greenville county and portions of Spartanburg, Pickens. Anderson and Laurens counties. The Georgetown CCC camp can plant In Georgetown county as well as a portion of Williamsburg and Berkeley counties und the northern end of Charleston county. The Stokes camp can plant In Colleton county and can also plant In portions of Bamberg. Hampton, Jaspor and Dorchester counties. The Barnwell CCC camp can plant In that county as well as parts of Allendale', Orangeburg and Bamberg counties. The Pontlac CCC camp, located In Richland county, can plant In that county as well as parts of* Fairfield i upd Kershaw. ^ The 1*00 county camp near Blshopvtlle can plant In l^ee county as well as portions of Florence. Darlington, Chesterfield. Kershaw and Sumter. | The Sumter CCC camp, located at the state nursery, can plant In Sumter and the greater portion of Clarendon' counties. The owner of the^nPd Is required i to make application for theso plant-j ings to the district foresters at Aiken, Spartanburg, Camden, Florence and Walterboro. As In all other cases where forest tree seedlings are sold by the Stato Forest Service, the landowner Is required to protect the planted trees from fire and also from damage by browsing or trampling by livestock during their early life. Labor costs are usually half the amount expended In setting out trees, therefore economical landowners, civic and patriotic groups are taking advantage of this opportunity to establish tree planting demonstrations in their neighborhoods. These plantings are very helpful In publicizing the value of tree planting, and to secure forest growth on lands unsuitable for agriculture. They also prevent soil erosion, supply pine straw, fuel and materials for home use and also a surplus for the market to supplement cash Inoome. "The tree planting season Is over half over, all except a small portion of the trees raised in the state nurserles' have been ordered, and naturally the distribution policy of the State Forest Service Is "first come first served." In order to avoid the disappointment of not being abl^to secure seedlings during the presem planting season landowners are advised to place their orders at the earliest possible date." Elliott Roosevelt, of Fort Worth, Texas, In. a White House radio address, said that the time would colne soon for a Texan to be elected president and mentioned John N. Garner and thre other Texans as possibilities. Just 36 hours after Ernest John Mahr, 24, had entered the homo of Ruth Scott, , and beaten her to death with a hatchet at Milwaukee, Wis., he had been tried and sentenced to life Imprisonment. Mahr entered a plea of guilty to the charge. ORCHIDS A NICKEL IN LITTLE KISS ORCHIDS are a nickel in the village of Little Kiss, just beyond the Valley of Lilies. Peasants still practice voodoo, but the colored people are mostly gentle souls, eager to believe that folks is good and living am sweet. This Is life In Dominica, one of the "Ports of the Run" which Eleanor Earlj touches In tier fascinating article on tropical travel In the | February Cosmopolitan.

A Sport Scribe Lauds Our City Harper Uault, sporting editor of tho Hock Hill Herald, has been a frequent visitor at Camden polo games but last Sunday the brilliant play, the record-breaking crowd so Impressed thlH versatile news-hawk that he used over a column to pralBe Camden1 and Camden polo. Here Is what allrper had to offer: "The trouble with you," a good friend once told us, "Is that you don't know how to relax.' " "Yesterday wo learned that we have known how to relax for over a year but Just did not realize It. Tho formula for relaxation Is simple: take a trip to Camden. "I-est night when wo returned to the family fireside In range of a telephone, which seldom stays stllli-and ' began worrying about frontpage pictures, wrecks, funerals, Inquiring reporter questions, tickets to the. l)udg?4i Vines match, dt>ctor bttl8, cold weather and tho coal pile?wo suddenly > realized that for half a day wo hadn't had a single, solitary thing cross ourj mind in the way of a worry or a care. I We'd been to Camden that half day. j "To begin with the drive to Cain-j den Is beautiful?even in the bleak j winter time. You take the Lancas-i tor highway but turn right at Fort' I,awn?If you want to save a few j miles?and go by way of Nltrolee! dam. You see the river from the highway in several places, fanning out picturesquely into the lowlands and a wide expanse from Nltrolee dam. Then you cross the bridge at Nltrolee and see the retaining wall which diverts the water from its former straight course down the valley and heads It toward Great Falls and the dam there / "You start climbing a hill remindful of a mountain road . Suddenly you start down and below you and spreading out in a sheer drop you sde the country below for miles, a beautiful sight. Then you continue down hill and finally into the Camden country, the land of the pines, sand, farms and white fences, and horses not un- 1 like Kentucky's famous blue graBs ' country. "You ramble up and down the rail at the polo game, rubbing shoulders 1 with the blue bloods and the Idle rich, the leathery-cheeked fox hunters .and. ruddy-faced ..hcxsemen^. and even cross the "Mason and Dixon" line to see who's over there. You watch the negroes lazing In the paddock with the hossea, only coming to life when ' the players change mounts between chukkers. You gaze across the polo field at the rambling Klrkwood hotel, thinking what a conflagration It would make If fire ever broke out. "You wonder If when you reach the age of gray-haired, robust, "Anc" Boykin you'll enjoy life as does ho as he guards for the players a bucket containing bottles of champagne and rings the ancient bell as the chukkers click off. ~ ~lt*B alt very fine and restful?people who are not in a hurry to go somewhere or do something?homes, many of them typifying that early era of which southerners are most proud, bridle paths, the pines the sand, the ilogs, tlit* horses, the old hotels with their great lawns and rambling walks. "You don't have to road the publicity aoni out by Frank Heath, a master at the Jot), to know that Camden has retained HomethinK of tho Old South which we all like to recapture now and then. (Don't take Mr. Heath too seriously about the Camden temperature. It does get below sixty and an overcoat felt good to the most patriotic southerner yesterday at the polo game.) "We don't know what living is," said a Charlotte friend with whom we made a Camden trip last Spring. We had met this friend's uncle at the polo game, a country gentleman and a horseman from downstate. "Now. take my uncle," said this Charlottean, "Hero we aro hurrying back home boforo dark to chase tho almighty dollar ull noxt wook. But my uncle won't leave Camden until ho's seen the lust horse put to bed. Then when ho gets ready ^ie'11 go home. If got anything that has to be done'maybe' they'll - /t o it Monday,.J.f , they don't want to, however, they'll wait until Wednesday. Boy, we don't know what living is." "Yes, tt is very line to wait until Wednesday. Tho only little hitch about the whole thing is whether the but cher and the baker and tho several other fellows behind tho scene will wait longer than Saturday. "But If you'd llko to get awuy from everything for a day or even half a day?the friend who told us wo did not know how to relax is a preacher and naturally would not recommend a Sunday polo'-game?try South Carolina's winter playground. "And now it Is Monday. Where's that week's basketball schedule. How about those tickets to that Budge- " Vines match. Hand over the paste pot and scissors. We cannot wait until Wednesday." FIRST CASE TRIED UNDER NEW 80CIAL SECURITY ACT Spartanburg, Jan. 20.?In the first court case in South Carolina under the taxing provisions of the Social Security Act, Federal Judge C. C. Wyche ruled here today that A. E.

Mr licIntbsB toIcl""' tho court that ho was under the lm- --press Ion that no returns were required In cases where less than five individuals were employed.
