Mayor WiU Get Tough With Those Firing Explosives Instructs Police To Arrest All Offenders nd See That They Get Limit It’s going to be tough for the boy or boys who are caught shooting fire crackers in Camden. Mayor McCorkle stated Wednesday that the police had been notified to make every effort to arrest the party or partiee responsible for the shooting of the exploelres. "We lnten<t to make an example of the party or parties responsible,’’ said the mayor. "We have had many com plaints regarding the nuisance and in some cases the firecrackers have been thrown on porches and up against bouses, a serious haxariL- "Tbwe is a city ordinance against the sale or shooting of fire crackers or fire works within the city limits and I intend that this law’ be Com plied with. Any person or persons who have an idea that they will be able to make Christmas an occasion for the shooting of explosives is going to be badly mistaken. 'There definitely will not be any shooting of fire crack ers or any other explosives. Violators will receive the full penalty required by the law.

Gil Rowland is a swell chap, but he sure put his foot into the hot water kettle when he started his foot- tmlf poth Take for Instance, those seven sport scribes who cast the bal- lots apparently failed to give consid eration to the manner in which Cam- <ien outplayed the Charleston Ban tams and upset the dope bucket by holding them to a scoreless tie. And those seven men placed Cheater ahea<i of Camden. Did we dream thftt 21 to 20 victory by Camden over Chester? And where did the seven wise lads place Florence that bumped off Georgetown which In turn had defeat ed Olympia? It will bo noted that Georgetown and Olympia are both mentioned, hut nary a peep about Morence. The more one Studies the poll list, the more need Is there for a good stiff slug of bourbon or a whiff at the smelling salts. Take note that North Charleston, wlnn«^r over Brookland- Cjiyce is in the 7th slot and B.C. is listed second. . And here’s another amusjing bit of arithmetic from the typewriters of the seven wise men. Rock Hill is un beaten and untied and is given third place, a slot below once defeated Hrookland-Cayce and two slots, below the one-tled Charleston Bantles.

Police Blotter Real “Who’s Who”' In Camden Life Blueooats Are Bearmf Down Ob AU Traffic Violators Ib CaBidoB ’The police "blotter” presents an In teresting appearance these days. "The Police Blotter” is the name given to the record of arrests that are made by the police department. Vic- timli of the law enforcement officers have their names, address, reason for arrest and the names of arresting officer or officers on the "blotter.” For the past week the blotter has shown much activity In the record of arrests made for traffic violations. Daily there are many names of those who have been careless In their park ing. In fact, the blotter has become a sort of Who’s Who in Camden for it carries the names of quite a num ber of prominent motorists, who have straddled angle lines, remained In prohibited zones or exceeded the time limit In restricted time sones. The police, acordlng to Chief Alva Rush, are.really bearing down on traffic violators. An arrest for wrong parking usually means |2 for the po lice officers. In several Instances motorists who found blue traffic tags on their cars and disdainfully tore them up, have found that the gentle gesture cost them 86 instead of 82, for the police have a stub record of every tag and have been going after these tearer-uppers with a little sheet of paper known In legal circles as a summons.
