Said to have been th«> largest
crowd to ever Witness a football
game In Sumter histoir jammed the
Edmunds field arena last Friday night
and watched the Qameeocks defeat
the Camden Bulldogs 8 to €. It was
a good game to watch but the action
on the flekf wasn’t anything to get
excited over. Camden put up a
spanking defense but had little if- any
offense to offer. Pumbles' played an
important part in the downfall’ of the
Bulldogs.
• « • %
The' Bulldogs played hard and that
is something a Qnmber of loyal (ques
tion mauk) fans around here do not
take into consideration. We heard
some of these experts give utterance
to their sore-headedness. Blah!
• • * •
Weil, looking over the scorea-of
last Friday we note where Brookland-
Cayce defeated the Oilumbla Caps 12
to 0. Olympia Highs of (Columbia,
defeated Asheville 14 to 7. Florence
routed Orangeburg 56 to S3 in a free-
scoring tilt -Greenwood and Cheater
played to a II to IS tie. Charleston
and Richmond Academy ended all
square 6 and 6. Hartoville, Bulldog
opponents tonight, went down before
Conway 7 to 0.
• • • •
We Jalopied over to Columbia last
Saturday and watched South Carolina
and Presbyterian battle. The Game
cocks won 40 to 0. We’ve seen a lot
of high school teams that would play
rings around Presbyterian and the
South Carolina squad wasn’t much
better.
t • • • •
Clemson. winner over Presbyterian
the week before by a high score, was
walloped by Georgia 20 to 0 In a
game that was played In a torrential
downponr. The best showing of ths
Tigers came in the closing minutes
of the game when Chirol Cox began
tossing passes.
• • • •
Duke, with Ted MarMiall playing a
tackle position, smeared the Marines
from Bogus Field by a big margin.
• • • ■
Well, tonight the Bulldogs battle
Kartsvllle. Hartsville stepped into
the spotlight a few weks ago by de
feating Mullins 6 to 0. MuUins, it
will be recalled, won the B title in
the Palmetto state last year and
wanted to play (Tamden, A champs,
confident of their ability to down Uie
Bulldogs.
• • • •
It Is hoped that' the plans of the
Hartsville team to bring their famous
80 piece band here will he realized.
Haiisvllle has the best high school
hand In the state and it la alwayg a
pleasure to have the tuneful aggrega
tion visit Camden.
• • • •
In all previous meetings between
the Camden and Hartsville teams the
Bulldogs have been winners—at least
in the nine seasons this writer has
been making his home in the sandhiB
area. It would be great pickings if
the hoys from the Sonooo Products
center were to defeat Camden.

courteous but reserved. The ehUsted
men, however, attempted to be friend
ly and pitch^ ln‘> and unloaded our
planes and carried baggage.
Major Butts took part in the first
air raids on Shanghai and Hongkong.
During the Honghong raid he brought
his plane in toward the target at the
height of a 1,(KM) feet. The flak was
so hoLvy and dmisa that the major’s
crew named the approach Flak Alley.
On the Shanghai mission be flew for
17 hours on 8,100 gallons of gas, an
exceptional range for this sort of mis
sion.
Butts has flown on 48 missions.
During these missions his crew sank
15 enemy ships and severely damaged
another. He has 644 hours of combat
flying time and has flown an addi
tional 188 hours in combat zones.
The major has received the Dis
