The attorney general of South

ruled that Sunday beseball and other
amnsements are illegal In South Caro

What many dtisens, eepeelally
sport fans, would like to know it—
whst doee the attorney general mean
by “other amusements’*?
If he means ths morles, we la
den wUl not feel Uis prohibition, tor
ths Sunday morto program was closed
some time ago by T. Lee LHtle^ local
theater magnate. When Um cadet

the Sabbath during the war yeara,
but, tike the moTlea, Camden people
are not thellned to attend ball games
on the tiord*# day.
But there are two sports hers that
feati^ Sunday, thsy being golf and
polo. Polo is playsd Vrery Snnday
afternoon during the ^ter eeaaon
at Kirkwood field. The atoisskm fM
Is small and what Is taken in goes to
charity and ths maintenance of the
field.
Oolf Is one of the most popular of
Saturday, May 25, hag been designated by the American
Legion and the Legion auxiliary as Poppy day, and Mayor
Francis N. McCorkle has issued a proclamation, un^ng full
co-operatkm by the public wtth the Legion and aui^iary in
the sale oi the p<H>pies for the program of cfiiiid (welfare
among the families of veterans. His proclamation follows:
Whereasr^ AmerkAiL Legion and the American Legion
auxiliary have designated Satv^ay, May 25, 1946, as Na
tional I^ppy day, fid 'j ^ 4/2ao1
Wheceas, it is the desire that all citisena co-operate
purchasing the poppies as tendered by the ladies of the auxil
iary; the process from this sale to go to the rehabilitatfos
and cheild welfare program of their organisation.
Therefore, by vkthe of authority, vested Ui me as
mayor, I proclaim May. 25 to be observed by CMmiet^ people
as Natidnal Poppy , day.
