Thousand Soldiers In
Camden for Weekend
. .??? -??? v
Camden got its first flood of soldiers
frnni i lie maneuver urea Saturday
afternoon and by nightfall over 1.000
had arrived In the city for a \veek-end
of fun and entertftlumout.
I ntt>r reports Indicated that all
found places to sleep, although hundreds
were obliged to sleep on the 1
floor of the armory and the court
house. The Chamber of Commerce
notified last week that there would
bt. no soldiers sent to Camden until
later in the month wade every effort
to find sleeping accommodations for
the visitors.
One group of soldiers came from the
oanip near Kershaw while another
group came from Wadesboro. The
truck convoys were directed to the
r area near the new armory and from
this point the hundreds of soldiers
} made a bee line for the downward
area of the city. ,
Much complaint was heard from the
i visitors over the lack of shower facill
0it's and unless more showers are
available in the future the army may
cut down greatly on the number of
men to be sent here fOf the week end.
The only battery of showers available
for the soldiers was that at the
arinorv and these showers were In
use from late afternoon until the
early hours of the following morning.
Rands of soldiers wont from one end
of the streets to the other end In the
downtown area seeking "tap beer".
One group invaded the Chamber of
Commerce to Inquire the location of
the draught beer establishments. It
was apparent that the soldiers came
from the north where taverns prevail
in unlimited numbers and where the
lager beverage Is available.
Camden restaurants were Jammed
all evening while the picture shows
played to capacity audiences. MAny
of the soldiers visited the service
dubs and on Sunday a number took
occasion to attend church service#.
Sunday the restaurants again catered
to immense crowds of uniformed men.
The recently installed benches along
the walks on DeKalb street came In
for manv congratulatory remarks from
the visitors. Sunday morning papers
carrying football game reports were
quickly snapped up. The Sunday
shows at the movies, particularly the
matinee shows were very heavily patronized.
Police problems brought on by the
maneuver visitors were at a minimum.
Military police assigned to the area
kept the soldiers orderly.
There was some complaint registered
over what the soldiers declared ,
a rise in the price of bottled (
beet.
The soldiers here over .the weekend
are only a taste of what Camden is
to get later on, provided more adequate
shower facilities are provided. I
Otherwise the number will be greatly
reduced.
The stores and shops" took car? of
the invasion in a splendid manne** as
did the eating establishments. The
money order window of the postoffice i
was open Stmday -and--the- lobby of <
the federal building was Jamfned at t
times with soldiers seeking to send <
money to their families. 1

Camden Bulldogs
Upset Gamecocks j
<
Front Saturday's Sumter Item)
Camden High's football team took
to the air in the second half of last
night's annual battle with Sumter
High and ran the Gamecocks ragged
with aerials to come out in front by
a 13 to 0 score.
The Sumter team, playing for the
last time under the guiding hands of
Coach Bill Clark, who will, enter active
army duty, started out In line
form and made gain after gain thru
the Bulldog line. They even threatened
to score several times in the
first half and racked up eight first
downs to Camden's 2, but the capacity
crowd of 5,000 saw a complete re.
versal in the last half as a result of
Camden's crack passing attack.
The Bulldogs gained 153 yards thru
the air while Sumter's passes netted
?nl> eight yards. The Gamecocks attempted
16 but nearly all were either
*ide of their mark or batted down.
Sumter was never able to set up a
pass defens^. JThere was no qne man
to watch as the entire backfleld alternated
in firing the aerials.
Sumter had three good chances to
core. One bogged down In the first
quarter, the second was muffed when
_ Copeland caught a pass for what looked
to be a touchdown, but he was out
?f bounds when he snagged the ball.
The other came In the final half
j *hen Dew intercepted a Camden ae1
tial on his own 10 and raced 70 yards
before he fateralled ,tCopeland In
front of the goal. Copeland was tacked
immediately and he fumbled but
< filter recovered. The Gamecocks
*er* then halted by a stout-hearted
f'amden defense. However^ the' lODg
run was by far the most thrilling-play
[ of the game. - *
A sustained Camden drife finally
^'d off in the last quarter. A series

Polo Game Listed
For Number 2 Field
Hnther than disappoint the many
polo fans who have been awaiting
the opening game of the 1941-1942 polo
season. Coach Cyril Harrison of the
Camden polo club, who arrived here
Monday morning has announced that
the Yellows and Blues will stage an
exhibition game at the No. 2 polo]
Held, Sunday, Qctpber 2. at 3:30 p. m.
The lack of rain the past several!
weeks has served to dry up the turf
at the regular No.-1 field and Coach
Harrison is fearful that if there was
any play action on the field, it would
cause much damage to the surface.
Coach Harrison states that the field
near the Kirkwood hotel is in excellent
\?hape and he will have the
Yellows and Blues out on a real show
for game patrons. The Yellows will
line up with Moultrie Burns at No.l;
C. P. DuBose, Jr., at No. 2; Cyril
Harrison at No. 8 and Kobertson at
No. 4. The Blues will have Klrby
Tupper at No. 1; Ancrum Boykin^t
No. 2; Carl Llghtfoot at No. 3, and
Joe Bates at No. 4. Charlie Little
will be referee. \.
As explained recently by Secretary
C. P. DuBose, Jr., of the polQ club,
considerable expense has been entailed
In the care of the field the past
summer and to use it now when the
surface is hard as granite, would do
a lot of damage.
"We will hope for rain before October
19, when we hope to have the
formal opening of the polo season
with Town and Country meeting In
the first game of a best two out of
three game series at the No. 1 field,"
Mid - Mr. Harrison. "We expect to
have the 109th field artillery band
from the Public Relations Headquarters
to play before the game and between
chukkers and the play by play
account of the action on the field will
be broadcast over a public address
system by a competent annouftper."
Mr. Harrison went on to state that
the game next Sunday would be free
to the public. When the action transfers
to the No. 1 field, the same arrangements
prevailing In past years
will obtain at the gate. This Involves
a small admission fee. All returns
at the gate are used for charitable
purposes.
Camden Police Bear
Down On Offenders
Camden police really went into
action over the week-end In bearing
Sown on?drunken drivers, reckless
Irivers and drivers witnout any license.
The police court Monday protilted
to the extent of several hundred
Jollars as a result of the bond monoy
appropriated from traffic violators.
As is generally the case, very few
af the offenders appeared in court
Monday and as a result the bond3 of
ihese respective offenders was declared
forfeited by the court.

Face to
Face In Battles
Lieut. Gen. Hutch A. Drum's First
Army, 369,000 officers and xuou swung
Into Hct.lon Monday In the opening
phases of a two months' training maneuver
over a 10.000-square mile uvea
of the Carolina's which will culminate
the last two weeks In November with
intensive battle practice in which all
components of a modern lighting force
will be employed.
Concentration of the various units
from their bases all the way from
Maine to Georgia was complete Sunday.
Soldiers, enjoying their last
week-end leave before the start of
their eight weeks of battle exercises,
were under orders to report back to
camp at night in order to be in readiness
for the beginning of the maneuvers.
This week the three corps making
up the First Army were engaged in
separate field exercises, each within
its own area. %
The First corps, composed of the
Eighth and Ninth Regular army divisions
and the Thirtieth National Guard
division, under the command of Major
General Charles F. Thompson, with
headquarters at Fort Jackson, started
a five-day maneuver, divided into two|
parts, in the area near Chester. The
principal action took place in the vicinity
of Blackstock, a few miles
south of Chester.
This corps was the first to be Fettled
in the maneuver area, and it has
already engaged in the working out
of one field problem.
Tl\e Second corps, composed of the
Twenty-eighth, Twenty-ninth and
Forty-fourth divisions, all National
Guard units, was assigned the task of
covering the hypothetical concentration
of the remainder of the First
Army.
This, problem required two and, a
half days. The corps advanced from
Its bases in. the neighborhood of
WadesborO. N. C.. toward Chesterfield
county in South Carolina with the
Twenty-eighth division, made up of
Pennsylvania Guardsmen, and the
Forty-fourth, including Guardsmen
from New York and New Jersey, moving
abreast. The Twenty-ninth, Including
Guard units from Virginia,
Maryland and the District of Columbia,
will be held in" reserve near
Wadesboro. MaJ. Gen Lloyd R. Fredenhall
Is commander of the corps.
The Sixth corps, commanded - by
MaJ. Gen Karl Truesdell, will stage
a delayed action in defensive tactics
In the area near Mt. Gilead, N. C.
This corps is at present represented
by the Twenty-sixth division, composed
of National Guardsmen* frpm
Massachusetts and supporting troops.

based at Camp Devens. Mass., Is a

Bulldogs To Face
! Tough Job Tonight
The Catnden Bulldogs, with three
straight wins to their credit will meet
a tough assignment when they battle
tho> Lancaster Highs here Friday
night.
The Bulldogs upset the dope bucket
at Sumter last Friday by spanking the
Sumter Gamecocks 13 to 0 in a game
that saw Camden fill the air with
passes and score two touchdowns. All j
of the Camden scores came in the'
second half after Sumter had pushed
the Bulldogs about the field to register
9 first downs as against two for Cam- '
den. I
In the second half Camden took to
the air and ran the Gamecocks ragged.
Freddie ^fullen, Camden back, suffered
a broken leg in the Sumter game.
The Lancaster Cyclones will match
a razzle-dazzle style of play against 1
the dlpfey doodle brand of the Camden 1
team. Camden has always been able '
to use preoisjon plays with a nicety
that could do credit to a college team. '
In all of the games played by 1
Lancaster this season the boys from '
the home town of Congressman J. P. 1
Richards have run up big scores against
the opposition. Camden in '
games with Kingstree, Brookland- '
Cayce and Sumter has been content 1
with narrow margin wins due to the 1
fact that Coaches Viilepigue and 1
Landsay have used many reserves in
the final quarters of each game. (
Between halves of the Friday game 1
the fans will be treated to an exhfbl- <
tlon of soccer as it Is played In Eng- (
land. Two soccer teams, made up of 1
players now training for the royal air
force at Camden flying base will put 11
on a game. It will be the Brat soccer f
game to be played In Camden and c
should attract a great deal of atten- f
tlon. I

Soldiers Face Death
FromSpeedingAutos
Chief of roilce Alva Rush urges all
automobile driver* to exercise more
than usual care when driving at night
and directs special caution to those
who motor on Broad street,
i The caution by the Police Chief is
due to the fact that reports have
reached police headquarters of several
narrow escapes by soldiers walking
along the side of the street to ond
from the public relations headquarters.
. ,
The chief took occasion to sharply
criticize the flagrant violation of the
regulation prohibiting motorists following
the fire trucks. Last Friday
evening when the department responded
to an alarm from a box near the
site of the old Seaboard passenger
depot, scores of cars raced madly after
the apparatus. From DeKalb street
north some of the- cars raced three
abreast. At the boulevard lane area,
one hustling motorist with three
girls in the car with him decided to
out fox cars ahead of him and turned ,
Into the south traffic lane. Fortunately
there were no cars coming from
the north at the time.
It's got to stop if we have to stage
a drive and make' arrests by the
wholesale" said the shief.
The arrest and conviction and subsequent
punishment of Are department
chasers would be an easy matter
If the plan used by several other communities
Is utilized. Police officers
take the license numbers of the offending
cars, check them with the
state highway department records
and then issue warrants for the arrest
of the car owners. Members of the
fire department are exempt from arrest.

i. Pitta, ?t Camden, are at the VanflgUhotcl
in New tork.
Mrs. Mullen Makes
An Earnest Appeal
Five hundred Yanks will invade
Camden Saturday afternoon, arriving
here at 5 o'clock, and will he here
until late Sunday afternoon. These
soldiers will ho here to spend some
24 hours in relaxation after a week
of hard lubor in the mimic warfare
now ruglng In the Carolinas area.
The obligation of the city toward
t these soldiers is three-fold. First,
they must have shelter, second, food
nnd third, entertainment.
Mrs. John Mullen, chairman of the
entertainment group of the Camden
Defense Recreation committee, in aj
statement Wednesday, said in part:
"The couch In the living room of
the most humble home is better than
a park bench or the hard ground
where some of the soldiers had to
sleep last Saturday night. A hot
bath, clean towels and soap constitute
the height of luxury for these
soldiers. A crust of broad In good
companionship is better than a banquet
partaken of in solitude.
- "Our best resource in caring for
these boys is our generosity and hospitality.
"Citisens of Camden are invited to
be present at the armory when the
convoy arrives. They will frave the
opportunity of. taking one or more of
the boys to their homes for the week
end. \
"For N entertainment Saturday evening
it is suggested that the movies,
bowling alleyB, Service Club, St. Mary's
Hall where ping pong, pool, writing
facilities, and the like, are available.
-?"On 8undays church services will
bo held in all churches?tho Catholic
church at 10 o'clock and the protestant
churches at 11 and 11:15. The
motion picture theatres will open at
1 o'clock. t
"It is suggested that the boys who
attend the various churches be taken
home to dinner by members of the
congregations.
' Soldiers who are not taken to the
homes of Camden people for the week
end will be bedded down in the Dew
armory."
