Riley, In a statement issued from his Washington headquarters, says that the theory of the South Caro linians is - that there’s food enough and more of it growinif all the time; they believe the war is over—the days of OPA gone. "We're willing,'’ Rep. Riley said they write and wire him, "to pay more for meat until the supply of meat itself reduces the prices." "It’s the Rebel in us Southerners,” the congressman, said. "We Just don’t like restrictions'.” Red>resentative lUl^ insisted it Is not merely the merchants who sing the death chant for OPA, hut more and more rural folks say, “Leh OPA stay dead.” Riley, a former real estate' man ex presses belief South Carolinians might prefer to keep rent control but says some of them would even do away with that. ' He says he wouldn’t be surprised if, the nearer congress gets to enacting another OPA law. the louder will be heard the new Rebel yell to keep OPA out. Natural gas pipelines in the United States now total approximate ly 220,000 miles,- as against about 141,000 for oil pipelines. COMING ATTRACTIONS Hfdglar Theatre Oenisr •read and Rutledge fla.

Fastened about the walls were streamers of crepe In the ertors of the service clnba Believe it or not the ladies shouted with glee when each waa preseated With a ^air of nylon hose. Frank Sinatra never received a greater ova tion from Bobby Soxers than waa accorded the Lions by their ladies as they were presented with the precious hosiery. Mrs. J. G. Richards was the bolder of the lucky number to re- cleve a special prize. Buddy Bruce, who was program chairman of the evening and who waa sided and abetted by T;illtwllter Brown put over a program that car ried a thousand laughs a minute. Every stunt was a scream'with the hula dance by the male Fatima, Ab dullah Twistem Clancy, bringing down the bouse. . ’The demonstration of how to wash and dress a baby waa another big laugh maker with Professor Shy Sln- ciaire of the Institute of Applied In fant Technique, telling the world that he knew Just how to fold ’em and where to place the safety pine with out pricking the youngsters. As a matter of fact, the eminent expert was so careful that there was not s squeak from his victim. This writer was a charter member of a Lions club when the senrlcs group debuted nearly a quarter of a gentury ago and we have seen many tail twisters in action but for pure- unadulterated chain lightning ad-lib bing and action, we have' to pass the orchids to Fred Allea Brown. As a matter of fact, we have a well-formed idea that Mr. Brown thought be was sponsoring the "March of Dimes”. Incidentally Fred Allen Brown a]^ peared In the role of the late Ehiiico Caruso, 0i^g in his block-busting basso, the love icene from Aids, or was it Lugoff? The water brigade race,, with Bud dy Bruce as chief fire marshall, had the crowd in a franiy of excitement. The spelling bee was another side- splitter. The vacant chair drill found FYed Allen Brown’s better half show ing her skill as a sit-down striker, for she wqn over tall handsome Lion Lilly by a squeak. And sing—you should hear those denisens of the forest sing. And when we say sing, we do not mean roar. During the erening Mrs. Fred West presided at the piano for the sniemble singing and also for some of the stnnt events. The club leader took an aw ful ^ chance when he. called on the Skipper to tickle the Ivories for the final vocal burat. Anyway, It waa a lot of fun and we speak for all the gnesta whan we say that a swell time was had by all. . ON THE GOLF COURSE ' Charles DeLoach was winner of the kicker tournament at the OCamden Country club orer the weekend scor ing a gross 80, which with a & handi cap netted him a 75. DeLoach Sheom wa^ second with an- 88-5-80. Dr. C. P. Vincent is one of the most improved golfers of the season out St the Camden 'Country club. When Dr. Viqsent started playing last winter he told Professional Steve Duda that If he could travel around at a figure between 85 and 00 he would be well satisfied. Hia last four rounds were 81, 80, 77 and 76. Which In any man’s golf ing life, is quite a nice figure.

I DODGE^PLYMOUTH CARS r T DODGE ”JoWated” TRUCKS 1119 Broad StroBt Thousands oi tons of tlmSsr hanr«wted in the forests of South Caro lina are being shipped from the state port of Charleaton to Holland to help rehabilitate the war-tone country. Here James W. Smith of Summer ville, a veteran recently discharged from the army after serving as a com- bat Infantryman in France, is shown stacking up the timber on the vast dock-side apron of the State Port Terminals in Charleston harbor, ’The terminals, which until recently were used as a port of embarkation by the army, are now operated by the South Carolina State Porta Authority. From that shipping plant thousands of tons of pine logs prodi^ced in he Cam den area were recently shipped to Belgium where they will be nsed as pit props for the rehabilitation of the mines. FVom The Press Box WkOe this Isn't azaetly foptbaU weather we are having ' now, there is some talk of the coming gridiron season in the air. Up in Lancaster Coach T. S. McConnell of the LancastMT high school who aoach- ad the BrooUand-Cayce team to a top position in the sUte hni year, has his Lancaster beys out tor mid summer training. Mac says his boys missed spring training because be had'not taken over the coaching Job then. ^ Mac told the Lancaster Merchants association that he hopes to have a fair team this fall. He will use the unbalanced line with the single wing- back. This is a new system for the Jjancaster boys and so he is giving them the midsummer workout to taech them the rudimenta of the sys tem. If Mac has the same success at Lancaster as he did at Brookland- Cayce, the boys from Congressman Richard’s home bailiwick will show some reel stuff come fall. Here” in Camden,, an Ice cold paower has been turned oh the football iplc- tnre. The departure of Oils Huggins, Morton and one or more others Into the service has robbed Coach Pierce of a most promising nucleus around which to bnild his 1946 Bulldog ma chine. Well talk about this situation in the news columns. Which for a pre-view of the Bulldog '46 prospects. The football picture is made even darker by the fact that much work mnst l(e done at the football lot.
