Phone 168 44tf J Jim Clyburn Comet Back To Old Haunts (Continued from first pate) /When March 28 rolls around this year and the Carolina cup races are held, there Is every reason to believe there will bo a Clyburn horse In three of the Jump events and also In the flat race. For if the training of the four horses Jim has with him progresses satisfactorily, he'll have a horse in four of the events on the Carolina cup card. Jim has his string at the Sprlngdale track for daily workouts but the bang tails are quartered in the I'ed stable at the polo field along with the string of polo ponies owned by Coach Cyril Harrison of the polo club. Fans attending the Palinettoe-E3sex troop game next Sunday will see Jim on the field again as an official for he haB been nominated to work with Cyril Harrison In the officiating duties for the afternoon match. And now for Ebeneezer?.J^ast Sunday Clyburn was astride a polo pony that has quite a history. The pony Is Ebeneezar, a western horse, born in Montana, on what is known as the Circle V ranch. Ebeneezar belonged to Watson Pomeroy for many years and two years ago was purchased by Charlie DuBose, the No. 2 player on the Palmetto team. Charlie las used Ebeneezar in all of the games of the 1910-1941 season and in the 18 games played so far this season. I Ebeneezar, believe It or not, is 19 years old and is stil,) able to travel with the best of them when on the ' polo field. Back in his early horsehood. which may be likened to the childhood of (he human race, Ebeneezar did some timber racing.. That waa many years before the Carolina cup classic came into tjie picture. Truly Ebeneezar 1b a greatf horse?not only as a polo ace. but he can go on ' a hunt, or will even don a harness if .the occasion requires and drag around I a cart. And Ebeneezar pricks up his ears and gets ambitious ideas when he hears about steeplechasers and the like. So next Sunday the polo fans will be watching for "Kentucky Jim" and his good steed, Ebeneezar.

Very few people sat on the official debut of the war time schedule, practically everybody moving their clocks ahead on retiring Sunday night The war time schedule found Camden getting up In Inky darkness and eating breakfast under electric lights. As the days lengthen this situation will Improve and by May there will be little discomfort experienced. Camden stores are conforming to the war time program as most of tho merchants, when consulted upon the matter declared that any change would defeat the purpose of the change would defeat the purpose of the change In time and would thcre| fore he unpatriotic. The daylight saving measure signal by the President of the United States is designed to promote greater efficiency in industrial war work and will save 736,282,000 kilowatt hours of electricity annually. Unlike day light saving time, war time will not be suspended during the winter but will continue for the duration of the war and for not more than six months thereafter, The system, furthermore, will be uniform for the whole country, in contrast to the daylight-saving time observance that affected seventeen states In whole or In pert. > Polo Is Expensive Game Says Writer (By The Skipper) ^How much does It coat to operate a sport of polo In Oamdou during ft aeuaou? That la a queatlon frequently aaked of tho writer uot only at tho polo games but also In groupa .whore the aport la dlacuaaed. Wo have, during the six aoaaona that we have handled the publicity for the polo club, had very definite understanding that the sport was expensive.-. Checking up with the finance unit of the polo club, we learned that the approximate cost of operating the polo program each season totaled $3,000. This ... amOput, however, does not task** in tho expense to the individual players In the maintenance of their ponies, purchase of mallets, and other equipment. These individual expense items run up into fancy figures, Breaking down the $3,000, we learned that the expense of using , the No. 1 field every year aggregates $600. The salary of the polo coach and other expenses connected therewith aggregates $280 a month, which for a seven-month period would total $1,960. It will be a source of genuine surprise to the fans that the expense of the willow balls used in the game totals some $200 for the season. The rolling of the playing field, which must be done after every game, costs $16 a month. Seed and fertilizer expense totals $200 a season. Field cutting runs to $25 for the season. The billing of sign#, a pair of score boards and other lqmber repair requirements totals $i00 .for the season. The printing bill, which includes preparation of posters, circulars, and the like, aggregates about $60, while hardware and painting will exceed $60. The dry cleaning of the polo shirts runs to $5 a month. In addition to all these items, there is the item of mowing the fields, moving the sideboards, the raking of the hay at the beginning of the season, which totals over $70. The writer, in preparation of this article, has been mindful of an impression on the part of the fans that, owing to the large crowds which gather weekly to watch the polo teams in action, the gate receipts must total a neat sum. At the ridiculously low admission fee of 25 cents that is levied for the games, it is readHy apparent that the total take at the gate does not aggregate any. great sum. The gate receipts are divided between the polo club and the American Legio, the latter organization using its share for Legion charitable objectives. Camden today enjoys the distinction of being the outstanding polo community in the nation. The Camden Polo Club is made up of gentlemen who give of their time and money toward the build-up of this fine sport. They do take care of the expense of maintaining their own ponies and equipment. They are making a great sacrifice to carry on the sport program in Camden. The Camden Polo Club deserves tho support of every sport-loving fan in the rnidsouth. Officer's Auto Kills Pedestrian An army officer giving his name as Colonel Bacon from Fort Jackson reported to the police late Saturday afternoon that he had struck and injured a Negro on United States Highway No. 1 at Rabon's cross roads west ofi Camden.
