Small is co-msnsger with Bedcf^

the Palmetto league. Small is *
great advocate of defensive play
and already the Chiefs are show

Ing several hundred fans from Cam
den. saw the lesgue-leadlng Sonocos
tak^ a 7 to S trimmiag from tke
fast-stepping Chiefs In a tea-inniBg
struggle that had spectators pop-
eyed.
Camden used tour hurlers In the
engagement.' Thigpen started but
was relieved ia the second by
Scott who in turn gave sray to
Leary. Leary wwrked' through the
seventh when Desordn weat in.
Chapman went seven rouads for
HartsviUe aad then trsasfairred to
the outflhld.
Camden was laading 6 to S in the
top half of Jhe ninth, la the last

The Item writer calls attention
to some sandlo^ standard umpiring
at Lake City and Florence. We
want to add to this statement \hat
the umpiring around our own hack
yard on Broad street. South, hasn’t
been so hot—ontside of the 0me
(hat RobUMMS handled. They tell
ns that BUad' Jehn Rohmd to a
gead nmpiN, which we do sal dis
pute, but Jehn’s fault, and this
also applied to Chandler, they let
tee game drag too much. Who
wants to sH on a hard plank for
two honrs and a hglf or longer
and watch Palmetto league base-
ballT Not na.
Wa’re not trying to pass any ban
quets to anyone beesnee they hai>*

Hampton IrW did a swell Job as
bate umpire. The oombtouMon of
Rohteeott and Irby wottid be.a hard

A Jubilant throng that Januhed
the Legion etadium to bang up a
new baseball attendance'record In
Camden, saw the Chiefs spot the
Sumter Fiskateers three runs in
the early frames and then roar to
8 10 to S victory behind the stellar
chunking end vicious slugging of
one Mister Tommy Laaorda, a re
cent acquisition to the bnrlfaig
staff of tha homaguaAs.
After a abaky start In which tha
invaders behind some slick hurling
by Chuck Cheek sided by four
boots by the home hopes, tOolr a
S to 0 lead, the Chlefi came to
life, steadied down, and put the
game in the refrigerator by tome
lusty clouting in-the fourth and
fifth innings.
Sumter scored a run in each of
the first, second and third innings,
mainb’ bacanse of a shaky 0am-
dan intMd.
Lasorda, not only pitched a
brainy game, but he poated a per
fect tetting Teem’d for the evening,
getting a doable, three singles aad
a walk In five trips to the plate.
Ten Sumter hattm stmek ont
and the dinnky chap tosned but
three walks.
In both the fourth and fifth in
nings the Chiefs battsd around the
clock, in fact, in the fifth, 11 play
ers made the trip to the plate.
For Sumter, Cheek struck out S.

collided with the Snmter player
rushing in to block the steal. ’Ihe
Chiefs butler was blotto for sev
