The steel bleachers were acqair^ at a cost of |2,2M and .will. api||mient the Qerman-' ent stands which^^1 seat 6.000 spec tators. In addition to the securing of the steel bleachers, the Rock Hill field is being gfren an ntenslre renoTstion program In which new fences, land scaping of gronn^new ticket booths, etc., are being attended to. It is a lasting shame to a com munity where 'football enthnsiasm runs as strong as It does in Camden, that the foDtbhll field and snrrosnd- Ings are in such a messy state. Speaking of football, fpns are urged to see the splendid showing of grid plctores In the west windotf of the Mahoney Soda Shop. The pictures were taken by Mac McCumber. who has recently purchased a new press camera. ThW are- outstanding in de tail and sharpness. the Camden tans had nothing to yell about Well, that's that Last year we took a lacing from-the B-C boys orer on a wet night in West Columbia, and the Bulldog Snapped back like the truly good athletes they are and hung up a fine record for the season. Tonight the boys will get another big test, for the Harding Rams from Charlotte, eren huskier than the Bishoprllle team, are here. The chances are that another big crowd will be on band to see what kind of a come-back their bulldogs can make. Some of the fans were of the be lief that the attendance at the Bish- oprille game was about- the biggest in football history here. But that is not true. It lacked .much of attaining the totals on hand in Sumter games here. One of the pictures shows the front of the Camden high school and is so goo4 that we wager it would take top honors in any landscape contest. The pictures of the team,t-especially the one showing Coach Plmee in confer ence with CoClaptains Dallas Ma honey and "Bnbba” Norris, are tops lif sport Tlews. The Wailing Wall Camden football fans were stunned OVOT the manner in which the Bisbop- Yllle Highs swarmed orer their far- oHte B^og Ulent last Friday night. Howewer, llrery one who knows football, admitted the better team won. The Ylsltoro were heary and rangy, they packed a punch in their line attack that was dynamite. This is indicated that they checked up 18 by Cam- first downs as against 7 made den. Their defense was' excellent, Cam den finding it to be of stone wall tea- tufa. J. O. Williams, BishopTille coach, was a happy man, as was Boyd Stokes, assistant coach. Remember Boyd? He's the Blahoprllle pitcher who worked for that team in the Pal metto league and later Joined with HartsTiUe for the finish drlra against BennettsrlRe, florenoe and Klngstree. Those former Camden Junior Le gion baseball players, Jonas, DuBose, and Woodham, were the stars for Pate an the inraders. Jones and DuBese were hot potatoes to the Camden offense breaking up the Bulldog attack again and again. Woodhsiq did some aloe ball totin’ as did Jones and Paile. While it is a difficult matter to control a crowd when the seating facilities are minimum, it is hoped that at future games, the police de partment wlirhayel61I10i» 00 Ito The BishopTille High Dragons sent the Camden Bulldogs down to a crush ing defeat last Friday night before the largest opening game crowd in Cam den history. The final score was Bi^ oprille 20, Camden 8. . The crowd, estimated by high school athletic officials at approximately 2J»80, including some 600 high school students and fans from Bishoprllle. These .rlsitlng rooters went into a de lirium of hysterics as their Dragons ripped and tore the Oamden defense to shreds and roared to one.of the most startling hl|h school grid upsets in history. It brought back momortes of a year ago when the Camden talent took a pasting orer in Brookland-Cayce from Cyril Busbee’s youngsters,' 27 to 6. For years it had been the custom for Just to keep /pectators back of the fence along each side of the playing field. Hundreds of snull boys and scores of adult raced up and down the sidelines, following the progress of the ball in play. An excellent pli^ by play descrip tion of the game wad given from the east side of the field by 4 coast guard recruiting unit equipped with loud speakers and an axc^lent sportcaster. Kingstree Tops HartsWUe In Playoff Filial South Carolina's greatest baseball farce in history came to an end last Wednesday night when the Kingstree Royals defeated the HartsrlUe-Bish- opillle combination by winning the fifth and final game of the post-sea- ?son playoff by a score of 2 to .1 Kingstree had prertously won the league pennant and went into the playoff against Florence, Bennetts- Tllle and HartsrUle. Hartsrille in the effort to win added Bishoprllle pligr- ers to their lineup. Stokes of Bish oprllle pitched in sereral games of the series. > Now that the Palmetto league of 1948 has stepped off the stage, it is the hope of aU baseball fans that tha 1947 product be a 100 per cent reuo- ratlon. The league was, in the opinion of the sport fans, a genuine msas. In the closlxtg weeks, the leading teams were permitted to grab players at random from other teams. There was an almost complete lack of organisa tion and regulation. Despite tha raoord-hreaklng open ing game crowd, the ball lot i sembled a cemetmry after the ftnmi gun.
