Santee Floods ' J Jgwamp Lands Columbia, Aug. 17.?The Congaree [ river continued falling today after high waters had driven out a number of families In low-lying sections of Ktchlund county and caused an unestlmated amount of damage to corn and other crops. A preliminary Bed Cross survey showed that six families had been driven fropi their homes by rising water. Their crops were a total loss In some cases. ( A game department employe estimated after a survey, Uoweyer, that at least 20 families In the lower part of the county had left tbelr- homes. The estimate showed that the river was bevdn miles wide at some points but that high spots In the swamps were still above water to furnish haven for game and Btock. ' The Wateree river at Camden crested 30.6 feet about midnight and fell to 29 feet this morning. The Broad and Saluda above'Columbia also were falling fast. High water will hit th'e Fort Swamp Junction of the Congaree and Wateree to form the Santee, sometime tonight and wide areas will be Inundated. The Santee will feel full force of the rising waters next week Air Losses Encouraging Through Tuesday. August 13th, the British Air Ministry says that 3,119 German planes have been destroyed, during the entire war, compared to a British loss of 713 ships. This is a ratio of mole than four to one. If It Is correct, It Is a happy augury for the successful defense of Great Britain. Moreover, the figures are probably correct because the British have no reason to lead Americans to believe that their Island is safe, since they are looking to this country to extend tremendous material help In the prosecution of the pres ent war.

"fi Phone 210 - CAMDEN, S. C. V/ UJwHintin IWj BV I Washington, I>. C., Aug. 17. The House on Thursday passed the National Guard mobilization bill, empowering President Roosevelt to call out some 396,000 guardsmen and Army reservists for a year's active service anywhere in the Western Hemisphere. The National Guard bill wau approved by a 242 to 33 vote after the House defeated. 210 to 110, an effort to limit use of the troops to the, United States and its possessions. While President Roosevelt has said the chances are 100 to 1 that the Guard will not be sent out ol the continental Uttlted States, House leaders urged defeat of the limitation on the ground it would be misunderstood by l^atin America and was "bad military policy." I The measure already approved by the Senate, was returned to'the upper house for action on relatively minor amendments. It is expected to becottie law sometime next week, and the Guard called out in increments this fall. The calling of the National Guard, would mean an addition of anywheie from 150,000 to 200,000 to the regular Army, finds no serious opposition in any of the major population groups. By a vote of 82 per cent or more, it Is approved in all geographical sections in all age groups, and from top to bottom of the income scale. On few issues have the people ever been so unified. Why the measure is popular can clearly seen from the reasons given by the people in explaining their attitude. The first and main reason is that "we must be prepared for emergency with a sKiiied and trained fighting force." The second reason is that it is logl-, cal to call upon the Guard because they "already have a foundation of training in tactics," so that it' would be the easiest and quickest way to augment the Nation's fighting force. The bill is as follows: "Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, that during the period ending June 30, 1942, the President be, and is hereby authorized from time to time to order Into the active military service of the United States for a period of twelve consecutive months each, any 4>r ail- members and unite-of any-or allreserve components of the Army of the United States, and retired personnel of the Regular Arm>, wlth^ or without their consent, to such extent and in such manner as he may deem necessary for the strengthening of the national defense; Provided. That the members and units of the reserve components of the Army of the United States ordered into active Federal service under this authority shall not be employed beyond the limits of the Western Hemisphere except in the Territories and possessions of the I nited States, including the Philippine Islands. "Sec". All National Guard. Reserve, and retired personnel ordered Into active military service of the United States under the foregoing special authority shall from the date on which they are respectively required by such order to report for duty in such service, be subject to the respective laws and regulations relating to enlistments, reenlisiments, employment, conduct, rights, and privileges. and discharge of such personnel in such service to the same ex(tent in all particulars as If they had been ordered Into such service under (existing general statutory authorizations. "Sec. 3 (A) Any member of any reserve component of the land or naval forces who is on active duty or who may be assigned to active duty, and any person so ordered into the active military l?p lof the United States, who in tl?* judgment of those in authority over him. satisfactorily completes the period of service required under this Jo'.nt resolution shall be entitled to a certificate to that effect upon the completion of ^such period of servh-e, which ehali tnclude a record of any special proficiency or merit attained.

The starting lineup of the Invaders found Newton at center, Neal and Fletcher at guard positions, Taylor and-Hilton at tackle, Graves and Hammond at ends, Floyd at quarter, Olyburn and Mangum as backs and Small at full. Coach Nettles of * the^Catttden team sent out the followldfc starting lineup: Howell at center, Bundrick and Marshall ends, Oliver and W. L. Jackson, tackles, Flowers and Cornell, guards, Wooten and Cox, backs, Nolan at quarter and Hendricks at full. The game opened - with Camden kicking off to Kershaw. The Bulldog 'Crew'ttttflped the visitors dead and taking possession of the ball after four attempts to make the required yardage had failed, the locals carried the ball to the Kershaw three yard line where the visitors braced and hejd. Kershaw kicked out and Cox returned the ball to the Kershaw 25. Bundrick raced around right end for 15 yards as the quarter ended. In the second quarter the play was in Kershaw territory. Camden gradually forged to the 10 yard line from where Hendricks, playing a midseason brand of ball, went over on a spinner play through center. Cox passed to Wooten for the extra point but the pass was incomplete. At this Juncture Coach Nettles sent In seven reserves, Including Bell, Llghtfoot, Haynes, Wilson and others. Camden kicked off and after several scrimmage plays, Floyd faded back and threw a long pass which Wooten intercepted and carried back* to the Kershaw 30 yard line. Bell hurled a flat pass which was interOepted, but a minute later Bell intercepted a pass from Floyd and on the first play Bundrick cut loose for a 20 yard gallop. Bell then flred a beautiful pass to Jack Marshall, which was gathered in' by the lanky boy, and advanced 15 yards. Bell then passed to Bundrick who cut loose for a substantial gain. On the next plfiy.Bell a perfect pass to Wootep-. who raped over for the second touchdown. Bell then fired a long spiral to Haynes, but the ball slithered off the tips of Jake's outstretched hands . and fell incomplete. Camden kicked to Kershaw who failed to make, the necessary gain. Camden took the ball and Bell began his sharpshooting anew, Bundrick and Marshall alternating at taking the passes to advance the bail down the field. The half ended at this Juncture. The second half^was somewhat of a'l^pfetiHOTl -gfTTrr highlighted by a spectacular run by Cox, who carried over for a touchdown. Cox then kicked the extra point with Johnny Flowers doing a swell job at holding the ball. That ended the scoring. Kershaw's only threat came in the closing minutes of the game when some pretty running by Fletcher and Floyd carried the ball down to the . Camden 20 yard line. But Camden held and taking the -ball, began marching with Cox throwing some nice passes. Marshall was at the receiving end and did some splendid kangeroo Jumping as he snared the ball out of the air. The camp fund was enriched to the extent of over $200, which ^s the biggest take of the three' years the charity classic has been staged. The officials contributed their part of the program sb did the group from Chester. The Chester tean| was accom. panied to Camden by a big delegation and the sporting spirit was quite to the fore. The Kershaw players entered into the spirit of the event and played a beautiful game. While the 1941 game'Is tar over the horizon, it can be Paid at this ) time that Sumter will be invited to send a team here " for the all-star event. There Is even some i talk of playing two games, with Columbia as the second invader. Donate* Bird Bath Hartsville. Aug. 20.?Mr. and Mrs. George W.
