Camdaii, S. C
Mrat Ipbmbeth Thomas was a
dne-woman Chamber of Commerce
last weebmd.
This writer has heard a lot of
praise for Camden, but what the
coach and players of the Charleston
high aghool football team had to
say about Camden would make a
fine frontlspleee for Chamber of
Commerce Utemture.
And It was all due to the fine
serrlee offered at the Tbomaa Tar-
em. The Charleston group, 29 on
the squad, had noon day dinner
lunch and a turkey dinner after
the game, and breakfast before their
departure Saturday morning. At the
poet-game dinner the Charleston
grldders were Joined by some forty
fans from the seaport town.
Coach Seabrook and hla assist
ants, together with the entire
team personnel, poured forth their
praise of the fine food and aer-
Tlce so generously they had the
worthy Mrs. Thomas blushing In
sheer happiness.
Coach Seabrook declared that in
the nine years be has been coach
ing the Bantams that they nerer
had been treated so royally as In
Camden.
And speaking for the bore—and
the writer knows, for he was with
them, they ate all of the delicious
com bread In sight and yelled for
more.

Belmont Park. N. W.—The Irish
had nothing on the Millers here
recently at Belmdqt Park. It was
truly a great day for the Ken
tuckian as his fleet-footed Jumpers,
War Battle and Elkridge, crossed
the finish line one-two for s'^donble
w,in in the $80,000 Temide Gwsth-
mey steeplechase, feature event of
the twodhy United Hunts meeting.
• It isn’t often that the trim little
son of Battleship can show his
heels to his famous stablemate, who
only last week won the coveted
$25,000 American Grand National,
but he did It 5[>day. Whatsmore he
did It in a way that made the great
’Ridge hang his silky nmne to
shame, for he was some 80 lengths
in front when' he finished the diffi
cult three-mile trip.
Preeumsbly In the race to set the
pace for favored Elkridge and to
play ont such threats as Burma
Road and Checapeake. War Battle
got away fast with Chesapeake,
and his rider Immediately put him
into high gear. The pace waa too
much for the Clark entry, however,
and Jockey Breland let him drop
back with the reet of the field to
wait for Emmett Roberts to come
up with Elkridge. As they came by
the Btanda the first time War Bat
tle bad opened his lead to some
15 lengths and showed no signs of
letting np, and the big'crowd of
16,000 fans who had backed him
heavily began to have hysterica
Moving down the hs^ side the
last time around, Roberts called on
Elkridge to close, but his less cap
able stablemate with only 128
pounds, wasn’t to be denied. He not
only held his leod, but stretched
out as he made the ftoal turn to
increase it to about 20 lengtha
From then on, with only one more
Jump to go, it was plate to see that
he need only stand up to win. Those
who had hla money crossed their
fingers as he came into that last
have begun their trip to the win
dow. He fenced It nicely, and came
home strong, about 22 lengtha to
front of Elkridga who was two
lengths ahead of Cheeapeake. Bur
ma Road, who carried top weight of
160 pounds, was a poor fourth and
Refugio trailed.
This was only his second win to
14 starts, but the little fellow filled
the gap or te nother occasions this
season to run his total winnings
for ths yesT up to $26,700. The wto-
nmrt time wss 5:42 24.
