From tha Sklppsr^a Desk
Ftom all we have read or heard
over the radio, B.-C. Is suppoeed to be
an outstanding headache cure. Cam
den fans believe otherwise—B.C.
means a headache.
• • • •
Well—It came out Just as the dope
book prophesied. Brookland-Cayce 2®
and Camden 6.
• • • •
Let us hope this first beating B.-C.
ever handed Camden U not going to
effect the loyalty of Camden fans,
usually evidenced in such cases by
a falling off in game attendance. Let’s
turn out tonight one hundred per cent.
And be sure and make your plans to
be at Sumter next Friday night.

It was a case of history repeating
itself over in the Columbia area last
Thursday. Camden proved to be a
real magnet ao far aa drawing a
crowd, for the B.-C. field was Jammed
with spectators. Some dopsters said
there were 4,000 fans on hand—we
thought 2,500 would be a closer guess.
Seven years ago Camden drew 10,000
to Melton field.
• • • •
Anyhow. It was a big mob and they
aaw a good game. The light Camden
taam was no match lor ooltagealse
Bi-C. boys. Although the savage at-
Utck of the big B.-C. warriors left s
wake of ruin in Ita path. Howard Nor
ris was so badly Injured, his right
arm being broken, he had .to be re
turned to Camden In an ambulance.
Harry Gandy Is out for the season
with a broken wrist. Other boys also
were limping about Friday as a result
of the bruising battle.
• * • •
By the way, w© were told over In
Columbia last Thursday by one of the
statisticians of the South Carolina
varsity group that 21 members of the
Gamecock football squad were either
Yankees or far-westemers. There are
46 players on the squad.
* « • •
We admire the sporting spirit of
the majority of the Cantden fans. For
many years the B.-C. team has been
comini to Camden and uking beating
after beating. They proved to be true
tportsmen and were free to give Cam
den full credit for having outstanding
teems. And that is what made the
victory last week all the sweeter for
those boys from West Columbia. It
was an honor to defeat a team from
Camden.
