PAOr TWO ^IMeAMOEI^CHMNIOLIU^AIim^MUTirCAjjW^ 8klpp«r> D«»k We feel that it ia only fair and timely to mention that Camden foot ball players and fane dio not harbor any resentment against the members of the Florence team or the student body of a fine high school for the un pleasant episode that occured at the Camden-Florence football game there on Friday, Nov. 17. In our many years of sport coverage we do not recall any occasion where school officials and leaders of the student body, the football players and sporting writers of the Florence press handled the matter In a more sporting and gentlemanly manner. • • • 8o far as Camden fans and players are concerned, It is their earnest hope that the Florence high school will come to Camden next year for a te- tum game. We would like to demon, strata to them that we respect and admire them for their stand against the actions of a small group of Irre. sponsibles not connected with the school In creating the .episode of Nov. 17. Florence players and fans will 'reeeive a tiensrous and courteous wel come to Camden. .see At this writing there has been no definite plan whereby Camden, lower state champions, will meet a team - from the upper section ^ decide the state honors. We do not have the record of any of the teams from that section to base any build-up for a state title battle. We do know that, State Theatre KERSHAW, S.

Camden ia an unbeaten and untied team. In scanning the season’s record we find that Camden met end defeated some of the outstanding teams in this section—Sumter, Charleston, Florence and others. Wa want to emphasize at this time that we believe that Coach Pierce and hie team would like to meet a team from the upper eection that can point to a record comparable with the rec ord eatsbiiehed by the Camden te^m— that of being unbeaten and untied. If there is a lack of such a teem, it goee without argunieht that Camden can make - a Just claim to state honora without the neceeelty, of any playoff. We refer, of courae, to a record in volving only l^uth Carolina high •ehool teame. Spartanburg is report ed to have a..cliiar record ao far aa atate teame are concerned. The Spartans ar^ not an undefeated team, however, having boen defeated by Richmond 'Academy early in thd* sea- eon. But, as etAted, that defeat would not be considered as mitagating agalnat a state title game. • • • It Is ^slble that In this Issue of The Chtohlcle there may be a news story of plans for a state title game, based upon results in a game or games played In the upper section on Nov. 17. As we stated before, at thla writ ing, these games of course have not taken place, ajpd so we can not make any definite committments. • • • • If a game Id arranged, where it will be played would have to be decided by the team coaches. Naturally Cam den fane would like to eee it staged here. An upper state team would like it in their own stadium. It might be neoeeeary to play on a neutral field. Just as a euggeetion, we mention Charlotte as a location. Charlotte Is convenient In flletanee for both teams. And we know the good fellows who write the sporting newt for the Char lotte papers would go all out in pro motion ef such a game. Sumter haa been supgeeted and undoubtedly the Gamecock city would go all out In aupport of a titia ganrw In their own back yard. But Sumtar ia nether a lbng-4My--4dr an up-a^^ taam to^ coma. Tha aam# la tnia of Columbia. But anyhow, here's hoping that such a game oan be arranged. • • • '* As another suggestion—if a game is arrunged, let the net take be divid ed on a CO-40 basis between the'two teams. This can be made a hand some return. see We believe that Camdan ia one of the beat football towns In the atate. Our attendance haa bean better than any other wa bellava. And if a title game was played here, It would draw from all sections of the atate, par ticularly In the central area. Wa venture to say that It would prcr^uce the biggest crowd in Camden football history. Greatest‘length, of the Sahara desert is 3,200 miles, and it varies In width from 800 to 1,400 miles. Its area of 3,500,000 square miles is nearly equal to all of Canada. Mullins IM8putes Camden Clmm To Title Aspirations * And the Sport Writers of the Palmetto State Chuckle. FIMOAV, NOVEMBER 24, 1M4 By The Skipper. Sport writers and football fans of the Palmetto State are chuckling over the recent outburst under a MuIUqs date line anent the comparative merits of Carol Cox with two Mullins High grtdders and the relative football strength of the Camden and Mullins teams. The Mullins S'cribbler declares Mul lins High school has two players, who in the same number of games Cox has played in. have' scored 146 and 129 points respectively, as against tho 120 scored by Cox. Attention is also called to the fact that the Mullins team has scored 379 * points to A9 scored by opposing teams. The Skelton end of the Mullids tale, comes when the writer de clares: ''Many neutral observers, who have seen both teams in action, think Mullins high is eqnally as good. If not better, than the Camden team. Both have played HartsvUle and Mullins defeated them by one touebdowu more than Camden did.” The Mullins writer goes far out on a limb In the above statement We doubt very much any neutral observ ers ever saw the Camden team In tc^ tion and the comparison of the Harts- vllle scores is just about the silliest bit of reasoning we have ever listen ed to. The Mullins writer evidently does not know that Camden used Te- serves a greater part of the time in the Hartsvllle game—-and beeidn—it is not the policy of Coach Lindsay Pierce to try and run up high scores against opposing teams. The Mullins scribe really goes clear to the top of the Christmas tree when be says “A post-season game between these teams presenting three of the highest scoring backs in the nation would be worth going to see. Coach Edgar Cox of the Mullins team haa expressed his willingness for such a game. Maybe Camden would be in-^ tereeted.” No friend, Camden Is not Interested. In regard to the three highest scoring backs In the nation—wa cxn point scores of high schools.In the country, who play In small town circles, where' the backs have scored fantastic totals. These backA scored because they had no opposition. Take a look at the Mullins schedule. They defeated Lakeview twice, once 27 to 0 and the second time 20 to 12. They downed Hartsvllle 28 to 0, Marion 74 to 0, Andrews 64 to 0, Con way 40 to 0. Dillon 19 to 7. Berkley High 60 to 0. and McColl 47 to 0. As an after thought—the Mullins football fever—brings to mind the Camden-Lancaster game of a few years ago. The Lancaster Highs had a heavy fast team that seaObn and were riding at the top of a high scor ing spree that flattened team after team by overwhelming scores. It gave the Red Rose players and fans the championship itch and so when th«f team came to Camden, over a thou sand fans from 'the home of Congress, man J. P Richards, Jr., came down. There was scads of Lancaster coin in sight and Camden fans covered every thing that was pat on the board. Cam den, won that game 20 to 0 and it Tss a much wilted bunch of Roses that wended their way homeward after the tilt If Mullins is looking for a tough as: signment, we suggest they take on Bishopville. Our bets would be In BishopvUle. The Mullins aapirstlmu can best be taken seriously by sport writers or Tootball experts, as for InsUnce, two of the officials (outside talent) who handled the Camden-Monroe game, in speaking of the Mullins claims and desires for a game with Camden, de scribed it as being “rediculous.” ‘It would be murder,” said Refree White. ‘‘Mullins Is not <A the same class as Camden. Their schedule has been against weaker schools.” Potatoes were first discovered by white men In (k)lombia. South Ameri ca,' In 1538. Florence Highs Qose faane OeoTfetowti Highs Conylahi ot Mullins CABcelUtioa ol Game. Another football upset took place last Friday night when the George town Highs took Florence into camp 18 to 6. Georgetown has the outstanding B team in the state this year and could pr.obabljr give a majority of the A teams a trimming. The Mullins team, scheduled to play Georgetown on Thanksgiving, cancelled the game late last we^. Georg(^town, wltli an undefeated Tec- OTd in 1942'and again this season, was evMraUy too dangerons a fo* Mullins outfit. — *m Colombia Capw took a had from a JackaonvHle, Pia hirh^?^ ^uad 1^ Friday.
