I As the war goes out and note the Hianges taking place in the people of He several nations, we are inclined H feel that the conflict will bring bout the greatest change In EngHnd. For years every position of auHority In England, as T. D. Kemp H aptly put it? whether it was in He civil service, the church, flnanc'al circles, the fighting service, had to he filled by someone from the "right" family. Outside of the sciences, u man not from the "right" family, never had a chance. * ? "The war is sweeping away all that snobbery and sham that utmost brought about the downfall of England." says Kemp. "For this the. British people can be thankful. Sport Potpourri BY THE SKIPPER Who is the golfer who broke his own record with an 85 out at the jKlrkwood course the other duy? Look for the man with the happy smile. That's the Chap. * * Bob Lotshaw, Toronto first sacker, blew into the bailiwick the other day and is spending the two weeks before .the arrival of the Toronto squad in golfing, watch the polo ponies, wandering about the uohntrysldo and in general getting acQu&ultod with Camden and her people. ^ ? Bob is a grand chap and if all the rest of the Toronto lads are like hint, we're going to be mighty pleased with the Canadian gang. I have a hunch I should be a member of the A*. S. P. C. A., for I dislike to see dumb animals in pain. The polo game Sunday lost flavor to me, despite the fact that it was a whale, of a contest abounding in soilsational riding and shooting. Out of the death of Whit Boykin's polo pony was a real shock. So far as the members of the polo club are able to say, the pony broke its left rear leg while pivoting. A majority of the spectators did not sense what had happened and some of them laughed when the pony settled <Jown on his haunches, like one sees a trick horse do at a circus. But "Vhen the poor critter struggled up tfhd tried to stand erect, and the crowd saw the dangling limb, a gasp of dismay was heard. Of course those things happen In polo, steeplechasing and the like?but that doesn't mean we get any pleasure out of seeing them. * Speaking of the polo game?it was a honey with Harrison and his Ramblers went to town at the expense of Charley DuBose and his Palmetto marksmen. * ' * Harrison and DuBose tied for scoring honors and both played bang-up polo. They each chalked up three goals. * * Coach Harrison was making an effort this week to get the Fort Bragg foursome down here for next Sunday and will send the Rambler riders against the boys from up Fayetteville way. It should be a great battle. The Camden high cagors split a double bill with Chester at Chester last Friday night, the boys winning their game and the lassies taking the short end of their game score. Incidentally It might be' mentioned that the game was played on a stage, with one boundary a brick wall and the other an?opjx* space from which an unwary pltfyer who got too near the side of the court would tumble. It wouldn't be a bad idea If a demand was made upon the Chester school group to provide a better playing area or else .... i Sitting by the radio last Saturday night . we enjoyed several hours of good sport action over the air waves. For instance, we heard the big track and field indoor meet In New York; then the southern conference meet in Chapel Hill,, the Carolina State vs. South Carolina baseketball game, then back to Chapel Hill and ending up with a play-by-play story ot the title fcamo at L?ouisville between Kentucky and Alabama. Kentucky won by a narrow margin and what a game ?what a game! Tied exactly thirteen times during the playing period. f i i Publisher Niles, of The Chronicle, generously explains several typographical errors which cropped out in the excitement of the eleventh hour before press time last week. For instance, in the story of the Carolina cup race and the changing of the Imperial cup date from March 21 to April 4, the latter date was given as April 14. And in tfye box announcement of the defense meeting at the main control post Friday night the hour was given as 9 p. m. instead of 8 o'clock. i i. We might say that after 30 years or more in newspaper work we know just how hard it is to make corrections in the last hour before press time. You have perhaps noted that Columbia and Charlotte papers?in fact?all papers, meet the same situation. The moral of it all is: get your news in early. A*w Ottat ?% "i lost 52 Lbs.!"

Stark drama walked the turf of the number one polo held in Camden and for the first time since 1917, when It wua again uecesaaiy to shoot a polo pony because of a broken leg. The accident occurred in the fourth chukkcr, when after a scrimmage r.tar tho north aide boards, the pony ridden by Whit Hoyktn, number 2 player for the Ramblers, was seen to rink Klowty until it was In a sitting position. As the plucky animal tried to regain Us feet it wus seen that the left rear leg was broken. Grooms from tho stables removed the pony from the held and it was put to death by u police officer. Iloykln mounted another pony and play was resumed; in the fifth chukker he was responsible for a Humbler goal. Starting out with both sides offering a stoul defense, the Ramblers drew first blood In tho opening chuk-> ker when Harrison scored. Conditions wore reversed in the second period with the Palmettos scoring as the Ramblers were blanked. DuHoso shot the counter. 4 In the third the Ramblers staged a two goal scoring spree with Harrison getting his second goal and Hums his hrst. The fourth found the Palmettos adding two on scores by Robertson and Lightfoot, -while the Ramblers annexed a counter wnen Hums rang up his second. The Ramblers Jumped to the front in the fifth to lead 6 to 4 on goals by Boykin 'and Harrison, it being Harrison's third- In the sixth each team scored, DuBose for the Palmettos and Hates for the Ramblers. Harrison's race down the entire length of the field in the fifth as he crashed the score posts for a third counter was the feature of tho game. Plans are being made to bring Fort Bragg here for next Sunday's game against tiie Ramblers. Tree Planting Season Growing Short Very little time remains for farmers who wish to plant trees thts winter. It will be necessary for any farmer to get Ills order in Immediately to his county agent, county ranger, or the district forester in Camden, S. C., to obtain his trees in time to be planted. We still have sdme loblolly, slash, and longleaf pines available, as well as a few black locust. Since December 1, 1941, 606,000 trees have been planted in Kershaw county. Many persons have taken advantage of the AAA Conservation payments for the planting of trees. W. C. Hammerle, state forester, says, "If weather conditions permit, the planting of trees can be carried on as late as March 16."

COLUMBIA PASTOR SPEAKS ON HISTORY OF ROTARY At the weekly meeting of Rotary last Tuesday the club wa^ honored with the following guests; Rotary Auue, Mr*. Ernest lions, Mr*. Vlr-1 ginia Turnage, of Hartsville, Dr. Maurice Clarke and ,Clvitian J. L. Reld. Jr., of Columbia. Visiting Rotarlans were Roscoe Stevens, of Columbia, and Earl Innian, of Florence. Clifton McKain had charge of the program and his guest speaker was Rev. Lewis G. Taylor, rector of the Church of Good Shepherd in Shandon and a member of the Columbia Rotary Club. The speaker said he deemed It both a distinct privilege and pleasure to speak on this, the 37th anniversary of the founding of Rotary, an idea conceived by Paul Harris, a lawyer In Chicago on the 28th of February, 1905, when he invited three friends of different vocations to come to his home and on that night Rotary was born with members of four classifications?a mining engineer, a doctor, a merchant and a lawyer. Thus was Rotary started with the Idea of rotating weekly at each others homes. And in 1907 the second club was organized In San Francisco, and then In Boston. In 1910 there were sixteen club* whose representative* met in Chicago for the first Rotary convention and shortly after that, club* were organized in Canada, England and Ireland. Rotary International of which all Rotary clubs are members had, Just before the rise of the dictators. 4,714 clubs, with a present membership of two hundred and twelve thousand In fifty countries of Ihe world, there being 3,150 clubs In the United States; 147 clubs In Canada and New Foundland; 465 clubs In Britain and Ireland, and 1,000 other clubs scattered all over the face of the globe until Hitler thought .them too good to exist in Germany, and so also thought i Ills buddy in Italy. Only recently a club was organized In Iceland and another in England. And what doe*1) Rotary mean? It moans putting Into practice the golden rule. If any one of you would be chief, let him be the servant of all for he profit* most who serve* best and because of the foundation of this club, It has gripped the Imagination of men all over the world. Rotary is the antipathy of selfishness because Its members are inspired to the ideal of service above self, as well as he profits most who serves best. The minister dwelt upon the Rotary code of ethics, emphasizing fellowship, mutual cooperation, International goodwill and high ethical standards In business and professions and each Rotarian was urged to take his own classification seriously and some day we will live in International goodwill throughout the world?a consummation devoutly to be wished for Rotary believes that goodwill can be carried on to the nth degree, and Rotary Jias the Innate belief in building a better world than we have today. In closing Mr. Taylor compared Rotarlans to the highly-trained Arabian horse?both ready at all times to answer for duty at the call of bugle or the president's gong.

Monday and Tuesday Exciting romance between Don Ameche and Joan Bennett highlighta the thrilling action in the new 20th Century-Fox drama, "Confirm or Deny", which la stated to open Monday and Tuesday at the ^alglar Theatre. ^ "Confirm or Deny" Is Dramatic Film Since September, 1940, the world, hat* been asking: Did the Nh?.Ib attempt an all-out Invasion of England ?

His is an unforgettable performance and a glowing tribute to those unsung heroes of "front line" news. Joan Bennett as "Red" Carson, the gallant fighting English girl, provides the romantic interest that is intensified by the thrilling action of the story. Her Interpretation is magnificently restrained and she gives a convincing portrayal of a girl who finds love amidst death and destruction.

Chesnoy Rerry, who won national rec ognitlon hb tho founder of the Berry Schools at Rome, Ga., Jor Southern mountain children, died in u hospital early today. Sho was 76. MIsh Berry, who became ill two months ago, was known to the mountaineers as the "Sunshine I^ady". She gave up the comparatively easy life of an aristocratic Southern family to teach useful arts and crafts to the under privileged. She started the school 41 years ago. Today the Berry Institution covers about 35,000 acres, has more that 100 buildings and a student body of over 1,000. Most of the students earn their small tuition fees by raising cattle and farming school lands. President Calvin Coolidge bestowed upon Miss Berry the Theodore Roosevelt memorial association medal for distinguished service. "The schools," Miss Berry once said, "are my life, the red clay hills my home, the wind in the plnea la my song, and when I die, a grave beside the chapel shall be my resting place."
