Camden Power Too
Much For Chester
?
Camden power and precision crushed
Cheater before a largo crowd here
Friday nlKht, the score being 27 to 0.'
It wan the bulldogs seventh victory
and leaves llartsvillo, Charleston and
(iafTney remaining In the schedule hefore
the curtain fulls on the 11)41
menu.
The bulldogs roundly outplayed the
visitors. They out charged and outsmarted
them with a diversified and
devastating ground attack and a
sturdy defense against running plays
and passes. The Chester offense bogged
down completely the Red Cyclones
registering but two first downs during
the evening while fhe bulldogs listed
twenty-one.
Camden scored first toward the end
of tl?e Initial quarter when I'rlce
romped over for u touchdown and
Tlndal passed to Sowell to make the
effort perfect. In this period Camden
made 5 first downs and Chester failed
I to make yardage necessary for a first
down.
in the second quarter Tlndal added
touchdown No. 2 with a nice dash
around the left end and then pasesd
to benny Marshall to add the extra
point. Camden registered 7 first
downs and one for tite Invaders in this
period.
In the third period it was Captain
Sheorn who galloped home to score
touchdown No. 3. A buck through the
I line by Sheorn made tlie total score 21
to 0.
The fourtli score came in the final
quarter when after a Camden drive
had carried to the Chester one foot
line, the visitors held, took over and
attempted to punt out. The kick was
blockyd by J. \V. barker who grabbed
the hall and fell over into the end
zone. Conversion failed.
The game packed a lot of Interest
to tiie big crowd of fans not only hecause
of the machine-like play of the
bulldogs, but due to tho color atided
between halves by the crack drill
platoon of battery E, staged to the
music of the 109th Filed Artillery
band. Miss Meta Boykin, Camden
majorette lead tho band in the march
on to the field.
The crowd was electrified when
with officers and soldiors standing at
salute, the artillery band swung into
tiie strains of the Camden alma mater.
It was most inspiring and when the
last notes of the band had died away,
a roar of appreciation went up from
the spectators!
The worst traffic congestion in
Camden football history was again in
evidence, not only after the game, bilt
before. Tiie situation emphasized the
necessity of an intelligent study of
the problem in tho hope that another
season will find a solution.

FOR TELEPHONE USERS
i
i
Record-breaking use of the telephone
for the maneuvers and by civilians for
their normal pursuits is overloading
telephone facilities.
As a result, long distance calls are
being delayed, and telephone users
are receiving ''busy" signals on many
local calls. In short, during the duration
of the maneuvers it will not be
possible to render the type of service
to which you are accustomed.
Everything possible is being done
to care for these pressing demands
for service. Materials and manpower
have been and are being used to the
fullest extent. Large amounts of additional
local and long distance facilities
have been installed and scores of
newly-trained operators have been
added to the thousands already serving
you.
Despite these efforts, we, like many
other concerns in the maneuvers area,
are still being offered more business
than we can handle satisfactorily. We
are doing our best but we expect the
present congested condition to exist
until the maneuvers are over.
+ *
In the meantime, you can contribute
your part to our joint preparedness
effort by reducing your calling to a
minimum and by being patient when
service is not as prompt as usual. In
these ways, you can help speed the
service that speeds defense.

Baron DeKalb Is
Host To Soldiers
The faculty of the Baron DeKalb
school has a reputation for efficiency
and being on the Job one hundred per
cent in emergencies.
And because of these attributes
members of this model educational
institution located some ten miles from
Camden on U. S. Highway No. 521,
five hundred officers and men of the
56th Signal Battalion unexpectedly
rolled into the school area and pitched
tents for a two day bivouac the
school group was equal to the occa- i
sion.
Five hundred men and 86 vehicles
constitutes a "crowd" for a school
I
campus and naturally occasioned a
wave of surprise and excitement in
the school ranks, especially the student
body.
But the school program, after the
first flush of excitement, went on in
a normal way. On the campus the
soldiers amused themselves with the
athletic equipment. The school showers
and rest rooms were made available
to the soldiers in the afternoon.
Event the library with a fine compliment
of books and also writing material
was turned over to the Invaders.
But the highlight of,the invasion
came in the evening. A program of
entertainment by talent from tho
ranks of the battalion was given in
the, school auditorium. Card games
were in progress in the homo economics
room while other rooms were
turned over to the visitors to use to
read and write in. Curfew sounded
at i): 30.
Wednesday morning when the
teaching stall and students arrived at
tli school everything was in "apple
| pie" orib-r. having been attended
to hv a military detail. On Wednesday
til*-- visitors were allowed the
| use of the grammar school library for
: reading and letter writing.
' The visit of the soldiers, instead
[ of hefng an ordeal for us, was a delightful
surprise" said Superintendent
Cyril Busbcc.
Kershaw To Play Pageland
The Kershaw High Eagles football
team meets Pageland high school in
Kershaw on Saturday. November 8.
at 2:3't p. in. This game is being
played on Saturday in order to give
the soldiers in this vicinity a chance
to see tho game. The game should
be an interesting affair as the teams
are evenly matched and eager for a
win. As this is the last home game
of the season, the largest crowd to
witness a game on the home field is
expected.
License plates of plastic materials,
Instead of metal ones, are being considered
by some states as a means of
sa\ing steel.

Cadet Reiti With
? American Heroes
(Continued from fir*t P*ge)
Episcopal service untk the sluglug of
a gfoup of hymns by the Grace church
choir the cortege left the churcsh Hiid
proceeded to the cemetery. Here
many hundreds of people had gathered
to witness the committal rites.
Military police stopped all vehicle
traffic into the cemetery and when
the funeral cortege arrived, the procession
to the/ grave formed at the
main gates with the military band
leading and playing a funeral dirge.
Next came the color guard carrying
tlie flags of the United States and
Groat Britain. In turn came the
hearse and the six cadet pall bearera.
Then the guard of honor, the remainder
of the flying students and the post
personnel.
During the obsequies at the grave
u formation of live planes, each manned
by a British cadet, flew overhead.
Usually there are six planes in a formation
of this kind, but the sixth
in this case, was the missing plane
and the missing pilot?Cadet Pritchard.
The United States troops and band
marched past the Memorial plat and
formed in lino at attention. Final
prayors wore offered by Dr. Clrako
and Chaplain Nixon after which a firing
squad from Battery E. fired three
volleys over the grave. The service
closed with the sounding of "taps" by
the Battery E. buglor. The echo was
beautifully executed.
Perhaps the most outstanding feature
of the funeral of the young
lad was the visible sorrow expressed
by the hundreds of mourners. There
were few eyes which were not wet
with tears.
The grave, was banked with flowers.
The set pieces were exquisite
and featured two sets of wings?one
of white with the letters "It. A. F" in
gold and with a golden crown on the
top being from the British cadets, and
a second, gold wings with white propeller.
There was another "R. A. F.'
set piece?a round laurel wreath with
"R. A. F." in large letters. A large
wreath came from the Southern Aviation
School. A large wreath of yellow
and bronze chrysanthemums and
yellow roses from the city of Camden
?a wreath of red and white carnations
from Flight Lieutenant Keith
of the "R. A. F.," while other floral
testimonials of affection and sympathy
were from Mr. and Mrs. William
L?. Goodale, Mr. and Mrs. N. R. Goodale;
Mr. and Mrs. A." C. McKain; Business
Women's Circle; J. C. Penney
Company; Kennedy Insurance Agency;
Reid Sarratt.; American Legion;
Camden Units Friends of Children;
Mrs. Gertrude Harris and the Strak.
family.
Flight Lieutenant Keith, in command
of the British cadet group here,
himself a flyer of note, having performed
with valor at the Battle of
Dunkirk, was gijpatly affected by
the tribute paid his young flyer.
''The greatest regret I can express,
is, that I have to leave Camden (ho
goes (o a basic school at Macon, Ga.,
where he will have charge of four
hundred British cadets) lie said. "1
never have witnessed such a beautiful
and impresssive funeral service and
the manner in which the United
Stales army cooperated with us?the
openly expressed synipthay and coopentyion
of the people of Camden,
has affected me very deeply. You
Americans are truly a great warmhearted
people and from the bottom of
my heart. I express to you all my sin-j
cere thanks and the thanks and ap-1
pronation of my .country."
Old residents of Camden declare
that they cannot recall ever witnessing
such an impressive funeral. The
precision with which every detail was
carried out was outstanding.
The grave in which Cadet Pritchard
was laid at rest, is located just west
of the monument of Richmond Ilobson
Hilton, heroic figure of the world jyar
and Richard Kirkland, one of the outstanding
heroes of the civil war. It
is in this Memorial plat, the lot being
provided by the United Daughters of
the Confederacy, the English cadet
flyer will rest into eternity
Pictures of the funeral were tanon
by camera men from the army and are
to he sent to the parents and family
of Cadet Pritchard in England. With
the pictures will go this account of
the funeral rites.

When due to the overetgh^or careleeenesa

of Kershaw County. Anyone,
whether youug or old. who sees this
smoke Is asked to stop at the nearest

the number aud name of the person
whom the Are should be reported to
Wheu a person does this, he or she
not only shows hts interest lu the
| forest of the community, but by hi?
action the Are control organization
can go to the Are u^uch quicker than
| if the Are has to burn to u blaze
large enough to create a smoke that
can be seen by our watchman from
! the nearest lookout tower. Thus the
I Are can be suppressed and damage
will be less.
Farmers and woodsowners are real- I
izlng that such comAiunlty Interest
will benefit both them 'ami their

in a direct loss to them.
Should nny individual not understand

By doing so they may pYevent
a serious loss to either themselves or
their neighbors.
