Edwarda. district manager of the Southern tell Tele phone and Telegraph Co.. Inc., that Camden and Kershaw county may look forward -to improved telephone service during the next few months. Mr. Edwards’ visit was the result of inquiries by your Chamber regarding Southern Bell’s post-war planning for Camden and Kershaw county. Their plans, as explained by Mr. Eklwards, will be accomplished as rapidly as conditions permit but it is estimated that they will constitute a two year program. The immediate objective of the company will be to give telephonea to those people who are now on the waiting list for service. We are. at the present time, well ahead of other towns of our slxe or larger in the state In catching up this back log. It is estimated that the waiting list will be reduced about 60 per cent during the next month. Plans are also progressing for the addition of a new section of switch board in the present telephone office. This new section will occupy three additional operators and should great ly improve the speed with which calls are handled. This installation should be completed within the next six months. A dial telephone system is not only a possibility but a probability for Camden within the nrat two years. However, the Southern Bell Co. like any other business, desires to please the majority of its patrons. Therefore, surveys will be conducted by the com pany from time to time to determine how the people of Camden feel about the dial service. 'This type of service has been proven to be a progressive step in communities all over the U. S. PVw that reason, leading thinkers of our community should boost the dial system in order to Influence a favor able rfaction when local surveys are conducted by the company. ’The position of executive secretary for the Camden and Kershaw County Chamber of Commerce will be qpen in the near future.

C. Oct. 15-20 Football Chatter From tho Bklpporis Oabk Before going into our chatter on football, we’d Just like to mention the world series between the Chicago Cubs and the Detroit Tigers. We happened to pick the ’Tigers to win because the club has the better pitch ing staff. In all other departments of the game the Cubs were away out in front. But when you can burl a trip of stars like Newhouser, Trucks and Trout af the oppositioir. you’ve got a combination that really clicks. • • • * V. South Carolina was well represdht- ed on the roster of the competing teams. Mickey Livingston of New berry college, did most of the catching for the Cobs. Detroit sported a Spartanburg lad in its lineup. • • • • And now into the football column. The Hartsville Messenger, comment ing on the Camden-Hartsville game of two weeks ago, said that Camden didn't have the edge in the game— they had the whole show. The jprriter referred to the gaine as an exhibition of fnmbleitis, poor tosses, etc., with Camden getting most of the. breaks • • * That Camdeh-Florence game was Just about the best package of grid iron fare that has been dished up to local fans this season. While the game ended in a tie, 6 to 6. it packed a lot of thrills and kept the tans on edge throughout. The crowd was the largest of the season, but we have an Idea that the game Oct. 26, which is next Friday, will attract an even larger turnout. For that game brings the powerful Chester team here. • • • • For years Chester has been taking it on the chin from the Bulldogs. ’This year CHiester has a powerhouse, having held the big husky Brookland- Cayce team to a 27 to 20 score, aid will be out to wipe the records of previous Camden wins, by giving the Bulldogs a nice going over. V s • • Tonight Camden is at Charleston /md we’re not making any bones in admitting that the Bulldog^ have one tough assignment If they shenld up set the bucket,,Camden town will give them the keys of the city, elect Coach Pierce mayor and put the first string Real Estate Changes listed Conveyances recorded at the court house last week were: J.
