A 6 to G deadlock between the Ramblers and the Yellowjackets remained unbroken at the end of tho sudden death chukker. Many of the spectators left the held with the Impression that the Ramblers had won because of a long angle drive by Ancruin Boykln after tho bell | that appeared to have passed through the uprights, and which would havo given the Haiubler outtlt a 7 to 6 win. Heferee and players, however, said that it had missed by IncheB. The game wan a tight battle all the way, with Hcore tied four times. Play con-1 limed nearly two minute* after the final bell.

Burns and Tupper acored for the Ramblers and DuBose and Pomeroy for the Jackets. Boykln was the sole scorer In the fourth and counted again In the fifth. Pomeroy acored In the same chukker to make It 6-all. The sixth period went scoreless and the game came to a close after the seventh chukker had fulled to change the count.

WHO CAU8E8 NEARLY ALL OF OUR HIGHWAY CRA8HE87 We hear no much these days about the old outmoded cars aud trucks ou the highways. .Wo claim that they are the direct cause of nearly all of our wrecks, etc. All of which ain't wo, but 1 hold no brief for this rolling Junk, and, like you 1 wish It could bo shipped to Japan where It will eventually land. About 05 per cent of tho complaints against old, out-of-date cars and trucks Is based on the fact that they slow down traffic, Impede speed, deter Uying, Irritate one's temper to the oxteut of cussing, get lu our way, and ought to be put In Jail, but when have you ever heard of one of these old heirlooms having anything but punctures and blowouts? We smart alecks who own 37 and 38 and 39 models, with possibly the down payments made, and the next 4 skipped, cause 98 P?r cent of the highway wrecks. You raroTy, If over., see a car or truck older than 1935 towed In by a wrecker. The wrecker service fetches In our late models, our shining light, our Installment plans, our?"she can make 85 as easy as chicken pie." These are the trouble makers. Therefore, when we analyze the true cause of highway wrecks, first? mpst put. the blame on spetul>?And second?the speed being caused by the mut at the wheel, we acclaim that, nearly all of our deaths and cripples and damages may be placed at the feet, If any, of the speed-nuts. They, meaning these speed maniacs, which, 1 am sorry to say. Include me and nearly all of you who own late model cars, are the source of all of our worries and dodging and mourning. Most folks who own new cars think only of the speed they are making or could make If the old carB would stay out of their way. They go around curves and cut corners at 76 to 80; they peep over hills at death at 60 to 90, hoping that the other fool alnt there?In his or her way; they think their tires will take care of them on J Blippery roads, but other fellowB tires, just like theirs, won't do the trick. Yes, friends, our highway mishaps are all, more or less, caused by everyday folks Just like us who must speed I and speed and speed thlB desire holds forth even if we are going to funerals or to prayermeeting. When you hear of an old model car or truck having a wreck not caused by a new car or truck, have its picture put in the paper. It will indeed be a relic. the old way and the new WAY This is a wonderful country, this country of ours. It Is not the country that we older persons found on our arrival. It has been transformed, but not reformed. Customs and practices of even 20 years ago havo changed 100 per cent. These new Innovations make it expedient that mother and father raise their off-spring from the cradle to the age of maturity. But parents do nothing to tho children except feed them and raise them. The public treasur> educates them. At the age of 21, unless by "virtue of good luck and some , money hid away in the sock, our girls drift into the sewing-room and our boys get anchored on the WFA. There are no longer half enough lucrative Jobs to go around. We must piddle along from year to year and depend on whatever shows up (with a strap appended for us to grab) till we reach the age of 6;?, unless?of course, we have held a Job lung enough for the social security to merge Info Its caverns?and then the old age pension appears on the horizon. If folks In industry lose their Jobs ' by a shut-down or a Shut-up, rockingchair money is dished out to keep soul and body and Ford and soft drinks together till, per chance, the Job-wagon pulls by again. And then we can crawl back on. In other words, our employers must pay us If misfortune closes their plant. Rut business must avoid misfortune; that s the law. It's no longer the practice, among many folks, to take care of ma and pa like we did in years gone by Guess we simply aint able, but the taxpayer meaning you, is able. Of course we still have our poorhouses where we take care of the unfortunate lot that can't do any better; and a poorhouse alnt the worst place In the world to live. We simply don't understand it all. We have produced such abundant crops that our wealth (In crops) is starving us to death. We still have plenty money to buy all of those necessities that we can easily do without, but we don't have anything left to meet normal requirements, such as BBUU LJU.1 " W " Gamecocks Upset Chiefs in First Game (By The Skipper) A Saturday crowd of some thousand | fans and fanettes saw an alert and hard-hitting Gamecock baseball team from South Carolina University reverso the usual procedure in Indian warfare by scalping the Syracuse Chiefs by the loppy count of t> to 2. It was the first game of the season for both teunis. After an attack of Jitters In the first two innings In which the underdog collegians made frantic swings at the sizzling slants of Big John Gee, the Gamecocks ruffled their feathers aud began being obnoxious. They kept big John on the anxious seat lu the third, but ho pulled out without being scored upon aud iu the fourth aud fifth he was again invincible. In the five frames the big southpaw worked he gave up two hits, struck out seven and walked three. Augel went to the hill in the sixth and was given a shellacking to the extent of three hits, one being a doub.lft by Hymnson, and a walk, which with an infield error gave the varsity lads two runs. Angel sailed through the seventh without trouble, due to some neat support but in the eighth, after one man was down, he was again nicked for a double, this time by Stroud. When he walked Burns, he was given the highball to the shower room and Howell went to the mound. Howell caused Rhoden to hit to McDanlels who tossed to Murphy to force Burns at second.' Stroud tried to come home when Rhoden stole second but was run down to retire the side. Howell drew a baptism of flre in the ninth when six blows, made up of a triple, two doubles and three singles, mixed with two errors and a hit batsman yielded seven runs. I The Gamecocks added Insult to InJury when In the second it^njog with ' one down, Lehman walked, end stole I second, only to be caught napping j when Hymson pulled the old hidden j ball gag out of the attic. Wolfe started on the mound for the Gamecocks and in the four frames he worked, baffled the Chiefs, yielding but two hits. Baxter took up the pitching burden. In the first two frames got by safely, only to run Into trouble in the seventh. Bottaranl scored the first run for the Chiefs by a drive over the left field barrier. After Murphy had been retired on the prettiest play of the game, when Williams grabbed his hard-driven grounder, Juggled It a moment and then shot It like a rifle bullet to Rhoden at first to catch Murphy, It looked as if Baxter would get by with the homer as his only liability. But Angel was safe on Stroud's peg which pulled Rhoden off the bag. Stankey then I singled and when McDanlels doubled, Angel came over with the tying run. Harig poped out to short to retire the side. The Indians sought to start a rally In the ninth but the best they could do was to list a single by Por\ ter. ' The Chiefs had a bad day at the -plate, getting but seven hits aB against twelve registered by the Gamecocks. Each team listed four errors. The Gamecocks, underdogB at the ?-<?re the coolest In action. Th. was handled by Montjoy back of the plate and Staley callln' 'em on the bases. The rallblrds were impressed with the work of this lad Stroud at third and we venture to predict he will be heard from in professional echoes in < the future. Wolfe looks like a good hurler while Burns offered a world of pep back of the plate. Gee was the luminary in the Chiefs line-up. The few times he was In dangerous quarters was due largely to the umpiring. He has a fast-breakI Ing curve that fooled the eyes of Montjoy repeatedly. Six of the seven men In the first two innings went down swinging. Stroud singled In the second and reached second 01. a wild pitch. Porter sent five new faces Into the lineup In the sixth.

Chatter ot The Game "Beautiful play," said Jack Corbett when, Williams rifled the ball from uee[) oiiui t tu coiCli luui puy at. Slot in the seventh. ? "That boy Stroud is a sweet balli player," said the owner of the Chiefs. It was a neat play in the first when, after Meyers had singled to right, he was forced at second by afast play by Wolfe to Williams on Kahny's grounder. Kabny was out when forced by Harig who had grounded to Hymson. Stroud was the first to score a hit ofT Gee. It was a beautiful drive over the pitcher's box. In the third Hymson connected with what looked like a single as it started over Gee's head. The big fellow reached up and the ball snapped into his glove with a sound like a pistol shot. In the fifth Wolfe drove a long skier to right which hit an inch outside the chalk line. It would have been good for a douhle had it struck an Inc?h farther south.
