' Skipper Suggests Dedication Day (By The Sapper) Uaseball^faya are drawing near and with the Syracuse Chiefs opening up thler spring training next Wedneaday, It is about time some of the blgwlga In the local baseball circles made plans for a combination park "Dedication and Welcome to the I Chiefs" program. Prom where we sit in the bleachers] It looks as if the Augusta game onj April 6 would be the best bet for a: imrk dedication affair. Augusta is within reasonable motoring of Camden and a game with the Georgia Bally league team would bring a lot of "Crackers" to Camden. As for the baseball situation in andj around Camden, it is red-hot right now and we predict some fine crowds at all of the' exhibition games. The park Is shaping up fine and with an even break with the weather, the' season's initial game, that between Clemson and the Chiefs on March 27] should see the bleachers and grandstand filled. As for the dedication of the park and the ofTlclal welcoming of the Chiefs, we believe that should come on April 5. It will permit of more] work being done on the outfield at the park and everything should be shipshape at the pastime plant. We suggest that a public address system bo Installed for the Clemson game and also for the Augusta game and that each player be Introduced as he steps to bat. That seems to j be the procedure In initial major league games and in college gpmes and why not go "metropolitan" In a big way here.

In the meantime, when we get the word, the Camden News Service will see that the drawing radius of Camden gets all details of the baseball irrogra m. And an open question to the business and professional men of Camden?"How about a half holiday on Wednesday, April 5, so that all the fans can attend the game?"

Watch the date on your label Reddish Hangs Up Knockout Record { Kuati'rn ap'ort writers are taking cognisance of the fistic worth of | Willie Reddish, the lunky Camden colored heavyweight, who in a recent 1 poll was rated fourth in rauk among J the heavyweight lighters in this counI try. N In a recent battle at Lancaster, Pa., Willie hung up what is believed to be a world record when he kayoed J Sandy McDonald, of New York, in Just fifty seconds of the first round. , Reddish and McDonald were sche, duled to travel ten rounds in the windup event of the Maple Grove Park arena show at I>anca8ter. Hardly had the round started when Reddish landed a hard left jab to I McDonald's face. He followed this with another stinging left to the same spot and swung two terrific rights to the Scotchman's Jaw with machine gun rapidity. Just four blows in fifty seconds and McDonald was prone on the canvas counting the stars in the Milky Way. McDonald tipped the scales at 207 while Reddish weighed 190. According to the sport writers, Willie is definitely on the way toward title battles. He is described as being a fast puncher, swarpiing in and firing with great rapidity, particularly with an effective right cross. He would be more a bothersome handful if he would be a bit more shifty oh his feet. He comes in too straight and practically leads with his right. As a result, his rushes are usually met with heavy drives to his body. This, however, can be overcome with proper handling and when the Camden heavy does pick up some shifty footwork he will be far more dangerour than he is right now. Another recent battle that Willie won hands down was in the Philly Hippodrome when he went ten rounds with Eddie Blunt, who scaled 218 to Willie's 190. Willie was all over his opponent and in the third sent him down to his knees. In the seventh he had Blunt down again but lost the round on a low blow. The male bowfin fish does not seek a mate, but builds n nest and then waits for a female to "propose" to him. Church Bazaar Was Biff Success ?
