We still feel a tinge of shame that
Camden apparently has given op the
baseball ghost after a 1944 revival
that bronght good crowds to the ball
lot. Well bet Wiley 9heorn bwa
turned over In his grave several times.
Wiley meant a lot to the Junior pro
gram in Camden. Since his death the
bottom has fallen out.

In the death of Henry Niles, Cam
den k>et one of its No. 1 baseball fans.
Henry knew baseball and he knew the
players who have made the game
famons. Particularly he was eager
in following the careers of Palmetto
pastimers in the big time.
a a a a
Next to baseball we always sus
plcloned that Henry liked fishing. We
recall the many times he would ask
m to drop In the office and there
proudly exhibit a ness of fish that
his son, Henry, Jr., had taken from
one' of the lakes.

When Burleigh Grime%--«ame to
Camden with tbe Toronto .Maple
Leafs, dhe first person we lugg^
him In to see was Henry Niles. That
was a great honr for all of us. Henry,
a great admirer of the former big
league hurler, amaied Grlmee with his
wealth of baseball information regard
