"Yeah Hoy" he said?or did hebeing a Canadian i doubt It? Hut he meant Just that and continued, "I've seen acorca of mayor* to** bail* in at bull guinea but tbl* 1* the first time thut one put It over with accuracy and speed. Must bo a former town star eh! what?" There was a nice crowd out to watch the game, despite lowering clouds which threatened to spill water every minute. In fact, about the aixih Inning there was evidence of J up Pluv'a effort to dampen the prograin, but the boys kept right on playing. * * The high school baud was on the job and scored a hit with tlie crowd. ' * Don Morrison, as master of ceremonies was as active as a dog with fleas. Don supervised the raising of the American and Canadian flags on the center Held pole, while all of the ball players stood in groups nearby. The band played the national anthem. Ted Petosky, coach of tho Gamejocks team got a big hand when he went in to bat for one of his hopefuls In the ninth Inning. And the applause was loud and long when he scratched i nice single between first and second. * * * Brandt and Shuman, who did the pitching for the Leafs were given a treat welcome by the fans. Both of these lads were with Harrlsburg last year and went to Pittsburgh after the jeason. Brandt was responsible for he Harrlsburg team winning the pennant In the Interstate loop. Shuman also contributed In a great measure to the pennant success. * The fans had their eyes on Burgess Whitehead, the famous New York 31ant star who Is holding down the lecond sack for the Leafs.

We don't blame some of the fans for getting sort of peeved when a city newspaper came out with- the statement "the eyeB of horse-face fans" Instead of "horse-race fans". We promptly checked with ot^r office record and found that our copy had read "horse-race fans". So you'll have to take your ire out on the linotype operator of the Columbia paper. Well, the unparalled success of the 1942 running of the Carolina cup offsets by a big margin any trivial errors like the aforementioned. i , It was a perfect day, a perfect race and> a perfect setting. While we do not believe the crowd was as large as a year ago, such was expected. Not only the rubber situation but heavy rains north of Camden caused thousands of people who usually attend the races to stay home. At 11:45 a. m. Saturday morning the C]amden Public Relations office was called a score of times by people wanting to know what kind of weather was in evidence here. We told them "warm and bright sunshine" They said it was raining hard In North Carolina. ? It was a colorful crowd,the ladles being out in their new Easter finery, and spring wear, and did they look swell? The news hounds from all over the mid-south came to the show and we got a sore arm from shaking hands with the boys of the typewriter and pencil. i e * The program was beautifully handled. The city, county and state police did a magnificent job in every respect and our hats are off to them. At the race course the same precision of effort was in evidence. No confusion or difficulty whatsoever. The races were well worth seeing. Outside of the unfortunate affair in Eb? eecond race when one ol the entries fell and suffered a broken neck, u6rc were few spills. ? m ' . The radio broadcast was one of he best we have ever had. With Sig Imith handling the color and backround s ?u ff, a nd Chris Wood. Jr., he action story, Camden's "day of ays" was .heard over the entire Jnlted States land Canada. We hope 0 hear reports on the reception from nany parts-of the country within the ext few day#; ??r The Mayor's luncheon at the Kirkrood was well timed and went off rithout any delay or confusion. Many f our hosM folks met Governor and '4. W'Sfc.'V Mrs. Jefferies for the first time und were charmed by them. Senator and Mrs. Maybank, always great favorites here, were also present, and our vory good friend Congressman J. P. Richards was present to add his dignity and charm, denial Bob Kennedy, Jr., with Mr. Cooper of the Santee-Cooper project, were present and were greeted with enthusiasm. r" ' ' * ? ? * v.. Mayor and Mrs. McCorkle, together with councilman and Mtb. Joe McKaln, Wylie Sheorn, Jack Nettles and other members of the council group, even to smiling Don Morrison were present with their better halfs. m 9 9 Orchids to the Kirkwood for putting on a luncheon that was not only the perfect accomplishment of a fine chef, but was quickly and well served by the dining room staff. * * In as much as the ^Carolina Cup races are always staffed by the metropolitan dallies and the news syndicates such as the Associated Press, United Press and International Newa Service, the Skipper had. a pleasant afternoon in meeting the boys and acting as a sort of information please bureau. We take our hat off to the Charlotte Observer writer who was the only one of the typewriter wreckers to mention the fact* that the rider up on Rustic Romance was a Camden man. ttone other than that fine rider and trainer, Jim Clyburn. And what a raco Jim rode. Received a letter Monday from a relative up in Milwaukee to the effect that the Carolina cup race broadcast came in fine. She writes that She picked Rustic Romance to win "because a Camden boy was riding her. Wish I had been there to bet on her". Dr. Mills Dies At Clemson College Clemson, March 20. ?
