Rube Wilson; Camden's sensatldnsl
Junior Legion baseball pitcher, has
been named as* one of the pitchers
to work in the charity game at Char'
Jotte June 23. in which stars of the
Palmetto baseball ranks will battle
a team of North Carolina diamond
talent.
Wilson went to Newberry yesterday
<0 report to Billy Laval, who wjll
coach the South Carolina team, jack
Coombs, former major league pitcher,
will coach the North Carolina aggre
gation. The Tarheels will have a bet
ter opportunity to be in shape for
the all-important game for the reaaon
that ..the team haa been practicing
for a feek now, while the South
Carolina team held its first practice
at Newberry Thursday.
It w^ hoped that Laval would be
able to get orer to see the Camdeu-
Columbia game of last Wednesday,
but be had several players reporting
to him at Newberry tJiat afternoon
and conld not be here.
Wilson was to workout at Newberrx
yesterday and today, but Laval de
clared that he had definitely placed
him on the squad in view of his flue
showing against Sumter.
The game at Charlotte will produce
an all-star player, named by the fans
at the ggtoe to represent this ares In
the big Ehquire game at the Polo
grounds In New York in July. The
Chronicle does not believe that this
method of uaming an all-star player
will result in the right lad being
designated for the reason that the
preponderance of spectators will be
from Charlotte and North Carolina
and it will be the most natural thing
In the world for the fans to cast ap
proving eyes on players from the
home area. * A far better and more
satisfactory manner of naming the all
star player Vrould hare been to have
left the choice to a committee of three
neutral bassball experts.
- Walter Horton, Fair street, drlv|jr
for the American Bakeries of Flor
ence. has a de^p«eat9d respect for
the efficiency of the Camden police
department.
Horton, who drives one of the Me
rita trucks, has for some time, stored
the vehicle nights in a garage back
of the Cunningham store on DeKalb
street. This garage had heavy doors
which were locked after the truck
was driven In.
Last Monday night because of some
work being ^done to the garMie. the
big doors had been removed, so when
lorton drove In, be had to carry the
big doors and place them in the
opening.
Late at night Police Officers Joe
McManus and Stanley Rose, passing
the garage, noted the strange appear
ance of the doors and immediately
notified Horton.
‘‘Sure shows that the boys in blue
were right on the Job," quoth Horton.
