Thoi ok the Km I THE SHIPPER. I Hlphi off the but let me express my profound apologies to ft. score or more of my good friends who agreed to be at iiainpton Square Sunduy morning to taK<- the members of the 114th Infantry hand for a motor trip follow, log ihe i oncert, f ? Kffoit.-. to notify you fine fellows of 4 |aSt minute change In plans, whereby tin* l" o'clock concert was cancelled and the hour changed to 12:80 p. m, were I ru it less. * * What the local committee on entertainment of soldiers neede is better organization and a concentrating of responsibility In one person?and not three or four as the case la now. 4 ? Director James L. Young of the 114th Infantry band, and by the way, this band comes from Camden, New Jersey, would like to know what cockeyed individual ever designed a band ( stand 16 feet square. We sure are glad that this band expert spoke of this, because when the stand was In course of construction, we raised the question of size. We suggested a 20 foot square surface, but got laughed at. Sez Director Young "This should have beeu at least 20 feet square." * From now on, Camden may expect at least 400 soldiers from some army base every Saturday. And we are going to try and have each group be accompanied by a bTkBd band. 9 9 9 9 The 44th Division, from whence the boys of the past week-end came, proved to be! a nice gentlemanly crowd of youngsters. And belidve me, they had only words of praise for Camden. * We have to hand it to Mrs. Mullen, Mt%. Gaskln and Mrs. Leon Schlosburg lor putting over a nice dancing party at the old armory Saturday night. And despite the fact that there were only about 80 girls for 600 soldiers. everybody had a good time. * Sixteen showers will be available, at the old armory this week-end for soldiers The expense of the shower installations is being taken care of by tii?' county we are informed. The city is donating the use of the old armory lor shower and recreation purposes. * * The attendance at the broadcast given Sunday -evening at the Kirkwoe,! :;t\ed the capacity of the lobby.

IN A HUDDLE I r_S# \ ? svirA "THE SKIPPER" Ilot dog! We made a nice wager that Camden would win over Harding High by 20 points. Thanks lads for adding the extra two for safety purposes. The Charlotte sportwriters who went to the municipal stadium to see a team coached by Johnny Vlllepigue in action went away with a lot of respect ior the Bulldogs. Which of course is as it'should be. ? ? m m The entire. Camden team played smart football with honors of a special brand going to Tindal, C. Sheorn, Boykfn and Sowell. * If you sport fans will bear with me a bit and let me ramble along for about eight or ten paragraphs regarding the de-emphasizing of football at the University of the South (Sewanee) I sure would appreciate it. You see, my good friend M. B. Burns is a Sewanee grad and I know he is going to be interested in what I ha^e to say. In the' first ^ place, u. they "deemphasized" football at Sewanee but for some reason or other the darn thing didn't take. Tired of being shoved around like a stepchild year after year by larger and more ambitious colleagues in the Southeastern conference, Sewanee withdrew from the league and decided to take on schools of an equal size. And look what happened. Sewannee, at this writing, Saturday October 18, is among the nation's unbeaten, untied teamB. Conqueror of Washington and Leei 20 to 19; Davidson, 7 to'0; the Episcopalians are looking ahead for the most successful in years? * And the man behind this upward surge in the Tiger's stock is Rev. George A. Hall, Sewanee, Chaplain who was drafted for coaching purposes after two of the coaching staff members were summoned for army duty. * * And so we say, three cheers for Chaplain Hall. He's a he-man. m t We are going to take a short jump from football yto baseball for out next topic. Down Pittsburgh way, baseball fans, even at this time of the year when the Smoky city is a football metropolis are buzzing over young Billy Cox. Cox, it will be recalled was with the Harrisburg Senators in Camden last spring when turbulent Les Bell had his^gang here. Bell sold Cox to the Pirates and the 22 year old infielder who played the last several, weeks with the national leaguers appears to be a cinch for the shortstop Job next year It was the batting of Cox that gave the Interstate bunting to Harrisburg. Next year ' our old palsy-walzy, Old Groucho Bell, is going to have a heck of a time staying up in the race. Mark our words on that. Fufttt who watched the Camden Bull pupa battle the Chester yearlings Wednesday night came to a deep realisation that Coachea Johnny and Lindsay have aouie potentially excellent prospects for varsity squads in 1942 and beyond. Personally we liked the way E. Parker, Carol Cox and Jen- 1 ulnae handled themaelvea, although there >vcr^ others in the battle line 1 who showo^marlted promise. The attendance at the Wednesday 1 game was disappointingly small. ' Which goes to prove that tbe tootball ' fans will not par a higher tariff to ' see yearlings in action than what they 1 have to fork over to see the regulars ( play. ' T V * We belelve that if there [h to be a football game during fair week that it bo staged on Friday night and be a regularly scheduled conference affair. Thero Is no question but that a game like this would help the fair and the 1 fair help the game so far as attendance is concerned. Why not then have some kind of an arrangement whereby a certain percentage of the receipts go to the fair. And by all means, use the regular entry gato. Speaking of that scoreboard again. This department had a chat with the head of the Carolina Coca Cola Bottling company last week and we have taken steps to have the fofttball score board built as soon as the carpenters can get at It. The board is 1 to bo located at the north end of the field back of the goal posts. This department wants to express thanks to , the Carolina Coca Cola bottling com- ( pany for this fine gift to Camden. Here, there and everywhere In football. For instance, Ace Parker of the Brooklyn pro team who was a star at Duke was stopped cold when the Green Bay Packers played the flatbush crowd last Sunday. Green Bay won 34 to 0 with Don Hutson, the Alabama ace, staging a deadly passing attack- ? * Minnesota has started a new football campaign Just where It finished last year as the No. 1 team In the nation. The national poll of the Associated Press places the Gophers at the top of the first team. The first i ten Is dominated by the middle west teams. Michigan is second, Notre Dame fourth and Ohio State sixth. Navy rates third and Santa Clara fifth., ? In the National Professional football league ranks Don Hutson, Oreen Bay end who tops the circuit as high scorer. Htnkle, also of Green Bay Is second and Ward Cuff, Milwaukee lad with the New York Giants is third with McAfee of the Chicago Bears, fourth.
