, Tb« Skipper acknowledge* receipt
of several^ copiee of the little blue
book, prepared by the South Caitrfina
High School League land embracing
nriee goremiug conteeta.
The books were sent to our desk
by Charley Loclurood of Lancaster,
jwho is secretaary of the league, which
by the way, waa launched away back
in 1913. The nicest feature of this
league is that all the coaches, prin.
cipals, superintendents and school
•trustees of the state seem to be for
it one hundred per cent.
The arrangement seems to be all
right although there may be sereral
changes that-might prove beneficial
to the general structure.
Over at the meeting held Just re
cently in Columbia there was a lot
of discussion regarding the league af
fairs. A fellow named Henry Stro-
hecker took the floor and handed out
some frank criticism against certain
sport writers who seemed to be try>
ing to “run” the league. He
mentioned the various rating systems
used by some of the sport writers on
naming the leading ten or twelve
teams in the football picture.
Frankly, there isn't anything wrong
in the sport writers rating the grk
teams—because no one takes them
seriously. As this writer frequently
mentioned dilrlng the football swtson.
anyonet^wlth a grain of common sehie
knows very definitely that' a sport
writer who has seen but two or three
teams play, certainly is not compe
tent to select the ten best teaiu of
the state, or even to take part‘in a
poll on them. H Just cannot be done.
Well, there was a lot of suggestions
as to kow to put teeth into the systapi
of the league, particularly as regard
player eligibility. So they named
committee to take steps to strengthen
these rules.

—all as a result of the tremendous expansion pro

' This program involves the expenditure of more
than $300,000,0(X) in the nine southeastern statea
and means that the present invmment in telephone
facilities in South Carolina will be practically
doubled in the future.
So, I see'^the need for a heap of money. This
money will have to come, as it has in the past,
from the savings of hard irking, thrifty people.
Unless they have confidence in the safety of
