McNineb. who U stationed at the TJnited States Naral Air station in which he discusses the recent plea of the Skipper for a modern recrea tional plant in Camden. And Sgt. Mi'N'inch suggests an en tlrety new lo<.atiun for a foolball, baseiball and sports arena. Several letters received from men in the service regarding the snggeetion of The Chronicle eporta scribe approved a memorial filed in the area near the Seaboard station. Some thought that a well laid ont recreation park, sur rounded by a cyclone steel fence, cov «rsld with vln€« would make a fine addition to the nren just west of the new armory. Others favored the ares used as a polo field. One writer sug gested the Kirkwood polo field as the location for a polo, baseball and foot ball field. Bnt Set McNiach has another place in view. But wall let him tell his own story. His latter follows: “Dsar Skipper. I read yonr sports eolnmn each m<mth with much tntar- eit and IrSh fl ‘UrnsTUlcr-lir temr-t was particulariy interested in tha one in the paper of August k, wherein yoa offered a proposal-for a new location for the football and baseball park. “I would Ilka to put In my own two cents worth. It a change could be made and I agree with you fully that it should, why not consider the field just beyond the Southern tracks on U. S. Highway No. 1 on the left side go ing toward the* Hermitage mill. I think the land belongs to Moultrie Bums. There is, or was, s green house and nursery located there. To me that is the ideal location for the sporting sctlvitise of Camden. There is also plenty of room for a fair grounds. It is much nearer to town than the present location on South Broad street and it is Just right to draw large crowds from the mill villages. The two mill villages have contiibuted greatly to Camden in sporting talent and they deserve some consideration In a project like this. “I also agree with you, when yon say that sports wfU take on new life after this war is over and I for one will be glad to see it. I think this snggested project of yours, if carried through. Will mean a great deal to Camdhn. ‘‘Best wiahes to you, ‘'Harold McNinch.” Leant to Fly Southern Airways Woodward Field — Camden, S.
