finta of tho baaoball program.

Tonight Coach Lindsay Pl«rco is
pitting an untried and unpredictablo
outfit-against Brookland^ayoe in tho
season’s opener. This B.-C. gang
may not be the headache that their
alphabetical designation adTortisos a
core for. Reports from West Colum
bia indicate that the B.-C. squad has,
a world of pep and that there are
some beefy boys in the backfield.
' • • • •
Pioroo will havo the call on seven
of hie last year's regulars. We have
an Idea that the opening lineup will
find a lot of these letter chape sit
ting on the bench while the Bulldog
coach starts a green gang to sort of
feel out the opposition. ^
1 .e_..«_.
The football season this year is
different in a measure from those In:
former years, in that the extended
baseball program, which had the fans
around here goggle^yed in interest
and enthusiasm, was a sort of a
hedge-hop to the football season. For
that reason we are looking for some-
what of a record firstrnlgbter turn
out.
• • •
You've got to hand It to Dick Rich,
arde for having the field in the beet
shape it has ever been in for an
opening game. The turf le perfect.
■ • • •
Among the guests of honor at to*
night's fracas will be the entire Sum
ter High school team and there will
be quite a delegation of students ea-
companying the team. The Oameoook
gang comes over to take a looksee at
the Bulldogs, for they know they will
face these same , pootches In two
weeks on the same field.
From ail we can gather, there will
be something new In a record for foot-
bkll attendance in Camden rung up
when the Buiidogs tangle with the
Gamecocks. It’s ^ng to be a honey
of a battle, with the Bulldogs out to
grab sweet revenge for the unexpected
mauling received at Bumter Just a
year ago.
• • ■ •
This corner suggests to Chief Alva
Rush he make adequate preparations
to handle an unprecented traffic prob
lem that night. We have it from sev-
eral Sumter acquaintaaces that the
Gamecock city plans to poll the
shades down, lock the front and back
doors and all migrate to Camden for
a several hours visit.
* * * *
We have an idea that the many
hundreds of Camden and Kershaw
county boys who are In the battle
fronts of this world war will be sag-
• eaety awaiting the Chronicle this fail.
‘ They are alt Interjseted In the footbaH
program and If Camden can put on
a eweil show and equal the fine play
featuring the Bulld^ machine the
past three years again this year, well,
we have a hunch there will be cheers'
for the Gold and Black clear out In
the South Pacific and even on the
sacred (7) soil of Germany.
• • • •
And if we can turn the trick on
Sumter, those Camden lads in the
fox holes and on the sea are going to
have a chance to do a lot of good
natured joshing of the Sumter boys
who are over there with them doing
a swell job of cooperating against the
common foe.

Schod Age Urged
To Attend School
Governor Olin D. Johnston is ap-
pealing to all parents of children ol
school age to see to it that their ohU-
dren are made to attend school this
year.
This is iMurt ot a nation-wide cant-
paign to enforce educational require
ments of the nation. In his appeal
to the parents Governor JtAnirtott
says:
"South Carolina, is truly proud of
the splendid achisnrements and noble
sacrifices made by her sons and
daughters in carrying on the varied
tasks of the war. I say this with fall
recognition of the help that has come
from our boys and girls ^ e^KKB
age—those not actually in the armed
servlees. Mahy have been working
and they rightfully feel that this work
has been essential.
‘Now we are told by our national
eaders tn the Army and Navy, in
abor and IndMtry, and in ednealloa,
that the most essential work for hoys
and girls is that in our schools. They
urge that our youth of high school age
return now to continue the badlc train-
ing so necessary if intelligent, well-
trained young men and women are to
meet the problems of postwar years.
•So IS is with deep nride, with full
awareness of what it win mean to
many of yea and your families, and
with heartfelt sincerity that I urge
every boy and girl of high school age
n South Carolina to continue to help
our state and nation—this time by
working in our schools.
“Carrying on the fine traditions of
Jouth Carolina is your own responsl-
)iiity. I feel sure that you will not

Sumter High has an all-new coach
ing staff. Because the school authori
ties did not hand the coaching job to
HarteU assistant coach under Mc
Millan, when the latter resigned to
take over a job at the state university,
Hartel quit and accepted a job at
Kingstree.

We acknowledge word from some of
the Sumter High gridders that Sumter
will defeat Camden by a 20 to 0 score
bn Sept. 29. We wonder. Our guess
would be Camden 20, Sumter 12.

prevent an enthusiastic shopping imb-

In fact, Die display of French pas
try and other delicloas pastry goods,
was so attractive that from Monday
