Plow terraces before planting to give them extra width and height Repair screens on doors and windows before the fly season opens.

Talked to Jack Corbott Sunday morning and ho said ho had arranged a game with Albany here on April 12 and was trying to close for a tilt with the Charlotte Hornets of the Piedmont Loague here on April 15. 1 hat would wind up the exhibition games and mark the farewell appearance of the Chiefs here this year.

Well, it sure Is a swell menu to be dished up to a hungry gang of baseball folks. We want to pay tribute to some wonderful cooperation that the Columbia State, the Charlotte Observer, the Charlotte News and the Charleston News and Courier, has been giving the Camden News Service in boosting Camden's sport program. j And In particular we want to pass the orchlcft to Abe Fennell. sports editor of The State, who has been giving us as many as five stories dally on his page. And here in Canulen wo have two hot fans in Henry Niles and Charlie Birchmore, editors of The Chronicle and Messenger respectively, and who, have used all of the publicity we have tossed at them. x And now for hosses. The biggest event of Camden's winter Bport program is on tap for Saturday, April 1, and we hope the weather man gi\es us a nice sunny day. If he does, thej tenth running of this great classic j will be the largest attended and the tinest In point of class ever held. Oamden-trained horses ran true to< form in the race program at Southern Pines last Saturday and came away with a major share of the honors.. Today a Camden horse will run In the Grand National In England. It is a Marion du Poift Scott horse and is rated as a 40 to 1 shot. Uist year| a Canulen horse. Battleship, rated 30 to 1, won the race. Well, it just seems as if we cannot g?-t away from baseball Just received a letter from Jlill Daval, over at Newberry, and he wants us to push that baseball project and says he is I w it h lis. ? We're doing all we can and getting i a lot of cooperation from the press. ' |f we can get a six-club league or! yanized. it paves the way for more n.uniug camps in South Carolina and i yet. i; offers ^n opportunity i for many of the cities in the league | t), have farm teams. We'll bet a i cuuikiit right now thai if Camden tu;ns I ()lit irood crowds for the nine or ten I exhibition games here this spring, our ! home town is going to get a team and be a farm location for some big ?hot outfit Mint M uller takes defeat very ! gracefully, but he. does a lot of think! in*, and a great deal of that mind activity concerns a lucky break that Frank Woolen secured when his tee shot on the lbth hole soared out of . bounds, landed on top of the caddy I house and then bounced back into the i fairway That horse shoe shot cansled Midler to falter and his second ' shot found trouble Woolen took a ! par four to win the first annual Kirki wood golf tournament. It was a swell match to watch and the fact that the finalists registered S2 and 83 for 13 holes showed how closely they were matched. Wooten J had Muller one down at the end of the 17th but the latter dropped a long putt for a par four on the 18th to even the match. ? Miss Jane Swords of Camden, won! the women's tournament, defeating Mrs. T. McKee Graham 1 up. T. McKee Graham won the second flight of the men's play, defeating J. Vallee, 3 and 2. o ? The final matches attracted a very small gallery as most of the sportminded folks had motored up to Southern Fiue? to ?ee the i aeeu. * * * Enjoyed a nice chat with Mayor Douglas of Charlotte last Wednesday night, said chat being broadcast over WBT. The mayor was curious regarding Camden's fast expanding sport program and asked many questions which we endeavored to answer to our best ability. Your Skipper will chatter over the air waves from WIS next week. It will be in the nature of a booster talk for the Carolina cup races and the Syracuse?Augusta game of April 11. Hope yer listen. * Earl Blue, of the Columbia Reds, spent Tuesday afternoon calling on friends in Camden. Earl came over with a bundle of posters advertising the Cincy Reds-Boston Red Sox game to be played at Columbia on Wednesday, April 5. Blue is mighty pleased that Camden has a fine baseball plant and a good team to train nere. He believes, as we do, that baseball will be a major sport in Camden from now on, The only thing all of these baseball experts stress 1b that Camden should use every means to conserve the base ball plant. In other wdMs, it should not become a playground for promiscuous baseball playing. The outfield should be given every attention and care during the summer and fall, so that it will be in perfect condition when another spring rolls around. The baseball arena should be reserved for baseball and baseball only. Lugoff Older Youths The Older Youths of LugofT held its regular meeting Friday, March 10.
