STOP IN TODAY Camden Cafe- Now under menagemeot of Betty ead Lynn Dabney Caasden’s' equina pti^rsm is get. ting back- in its stride (mce saore after the war years of. eompaiative inactir- ity. * The first event of the season was an informal local horse diow which was held on Washington’j. Birthday, in the little ring in the pine woods <ni the property of Mrs. Marion du- Pont Scott. The show had a delight ful atmosphere with many owners riding and the genial Homer Gray senring in the capacity of Judge. The ribbons were well divided, though the Williams and the Wallers prob ably brought home the:* largest share. The largest class of the show, that for Working Hunters, was won by David Williams’ Country Boy, with Mrs. Jane Bassett’s Nancy Tucket second. The latter went consistently well throughout the show awf in the absence of hw owner, appeared in each of her classes with a different rider, going equally well for all of them. Bobby Davis, whom the steeple chases contingent are welcoming back to the fold after his years with Uncle Sam, rode her in one class; Jack Clybum, yhom the community is equally delighted to have back after his Army sessifb in another; and Mrs. Waller in the third. The David Williams also won the Hunter Pairs and took 1st, 2nd and 3rd in the Pol^Pony class. Polo has been resumed in Camden this win ter and has been, received with tre mendous enthusiasm; with over 2,000 persons attending.)^ the first game in which Camden dented Augusta and with regular gSines scheduled for every Sunday afternoon. The Green Hunter class was won by Mrs. Charles DuBose on a home bred, three year old filly by Swatter, a Broomstick horse, who siuids at Dick Kirk’s Ingieside plantation right itside t^mden. The Hwness class was won by the Tom Diallers’ trim little pieb^d. The General, who also garnered 'ribbons in two otiibr classes, and their'Irish Piper won the Hunter Hack claiss, was second in the Green Hunter class, and paired with Mrs. Jane Bas sett’s Nancy Tucket, second in both the Pairs of Hacks and Pairs of Hunters. The Pairs of Hacks was won by the entry of Mrs. Dion Kerr, Jr., and Mr. Cyril Harrison, which consisted of a pair of well matched Chestnuts who put up a flawless performance and the Wallers’ three pieball geld ings made a clean sweep of the tnility class, an event calling for holies or ponies, of suitable type and disposition, to ride over plantations and from which to watch field trials or steeplechasers school. Elach horse in this class was required to stand still while the rest of the contest ants galloped by. thus proving man ners and temperament. The Camden Hunt has recently re sumed its activities and two l^ags are carded for each week. A second horse show is scheduled for the last week in March and the Victory Race Meet will climax the season 6th. This will include two brush, two hurdle, two flat, and possibly a tlmbw race, and is under the guidance of Cam den’s first sportsman Mr. Harry I). Klrkover. It is gratifying to see the eager ness with which these equine eveals, are being received in Camden and the fact that many of the younger generation are working along with the more experienced organiista, augurs well for the future of this horse-loving community. State May Have Daylirtt Saving HmelnSimuner 9he possibility that South Carolina may have Daylight Saving 'Time this summer was seen when a bill was introdueed in the South Carolina Gen eral Assembly last week hy Repre sentative Troy Davis, of Anderson, which would give the state daylight saving time from the last Sundiay in PAGE THREE April through the last Sunday in September. "Agitation for having daylight sav ing time during the summer monjtis began some time back and the South Cantina Press Association went on record as being in favor of this move at its annual meeting in January. ’xlK>se who favor summer Dayligtti Saving Time point out many advant ages of the approval of the bill. Addicts of outdoor sport — golf, fishing and family get-togethers — actually gain an extra hour for such recreation, since an average of 46.6 per cent additional daylight each af ternoon will be allotted to South CSuolinians under the passiag of the Btn. In actuality, of course, the ex tra hour of after-work daylight is substituted by less daylight before work in the mmming— but those in favor of passing House Bill 615 em phasise that Sooth Cahollnians will have 15.T degrees cooler working con ditions by exchanging the hot after noon hour for an identical period during the coolness of the morning. Exponents of the bill add that by regaining on Standard Time, busi nessmen in the .s'late will find their efficiencies to work with other cities greatly curtailed, since trtephone and telegraph communications with the key cities of New York, Philadelphia and Richmond (and many others, ail of which observe Daylight Saving Time during the sununer months) will be totally disrupted (or two hours daUy.
