Earl Blue, new prexy of the
Sally league, will be in Camden
next week to cheek over the baae-
ball situation here. Then in Jan
uary the big shots of the Provi

look us over.
We hope that the arrival here
of the Providence club next
April will help to reeurreet Cam
den from the eport oblivion it
eeeme to be heeded for.
Even the polo program that was
so ably carried out last aeason
seems to be getting away to a alow
start. This is blamed on the lack
of sufficient ponlee.
We sure are going to mite
David Wilflama, Jr., Jack Daniels
and John Hill, who really made
the fane happy with the bucineeC'
tike conduct of the polo program
a year ago. We hope tome, if not
all of those fine boys can get
back to Camden for a week or ao
during the coming eeaeon.

Haasa of Nstioaslly
The polo game that was offered
last Sunday at Kirkwood field and
which was Wltnesaed by some five
or six hundred fans, did not con
tribute much to the polo program
—dn fact-Twe know that a number
of fans present declared that they
would not be beck.
We believe these fans saw only
the headlines in The State press
to the effect that' polo would be
played here Sunday. They did not
sense that the game, aa announced,
was a practice affair ind hence
would lack some of the detalla ua-
■uaBy-- found hi a match event Be
sides—it was free.
Itl was a practice affair of four
chnkkera with two three-men teams
doing the action woi^. And the
same program will obtain next Sun
day for aa Manager Cyril Harrison
puts it. "We Just haven’t enough
ponies to put on a regular ate-
chukker game."
He did state, however, that he
hoped that by the first Sunday in
January it will be posiiUe to open
up with regular games.
Much work remains to be done
at the polo Aeld. Whereas when
the season opened a year ago
everything was in readiness at the
arena, this year finds the field In
fair shape but the spectators area
was overgrown with grass and
brambles, the latter oftertng plenty
of sand apnra. The grandstand is
in need of considerable repair, as
itepa, rails and even the Aooring,
is in bad ibape.
In the Sunday game the Ram
blers took a S to 2 win over Coun
try with Major Carol! and the fath
er and aon Tapper duo playing on
the Rambler threesome and Light-
quantity, it’s time that the Ameri
can higioh baseball group began
to think of the baseball lot out oa
South Broad street The park needs
a fence and some bleachers, besides
work done'on the wall in front of
the granditand and north bleacher
area, also aulUble dngoati for tM
teams.
Looks aa If the Mullins High
footbeHere were a bit leery of
whft would happen to them If
they clashed with the Olympia
Highs of Ceiumbia in a Christ-
mas day battle at Maltoa field in
Columbia. Mullins was strange
ly silent oil the proposition of a
game with the Olympia outfit,
although we are told that a ma
jority of the fans in that tobacco
town would have liked te have
had the game played.
The proceeds were to have gone'
to the Infantile paralysis founds
tion which would have realised ■
nice sum, for our guess would be
that at least 10,000 or more fans
would have turned out for th*>
fracas. Now the foundation must
look elsewhere for Its funds.
'^Why did Mullins decline the
InvItationT" aeka Jake Penland,
sports editor of The State. School
officials at Mullins could prob
ably aniwer the question. But
our bet le that they wonL Any
how we are eonvineed now that
Mullins High have a hollow
claim for the Clast B title of
South Carolina high aehool foot*_
ball honors. We know that they
definitely do not deserve the
title.
HERE’S TO
YOUR
HAPPINESS
Your friendship
and our success are
closely interwoven.
We hope, in 1947,
to strengthen still
further these bonds
of friendrfilp.
